About this house rental


We are a 150 acre working farm with cattle and crops, fronting the South River, at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can see the house from overlooks on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The view from the house will cure high blood pressure in a minute. We are an ideal base for visiting Charlottesville , Skyline Drive, 151 trail wineries, BR Pkwy. and Staunton.

Because it is an old farm house with additions (total of around 3100 sq ft} the floor plan is unique. Downstairs includes all the public rooms plus a full bath. Upstairs includes three bedrooms, all queens, and a bunk room with 2 singles and a trundle which sleeps 3, and two full baths. One of the baths is off a central hall, the other is off one of one of the bedrooms. The upstairs rooms are on three levels, often requiring a step or two between rooms and the hall. If you are a person easily disoriented when you wake up at night, you may want to stay in the room with the ensuite bath with no steps. Also, it has a metal roof, so you will hear rain and wind storms if one arises.

Please note, the base rate is for up to four people. If you have more than four people it is $10 per person per night extra.

The address is 118 Hall School Rd, Waynesboro, VA 22980, should you wish to map it.

While only a few miles from the interstate, we are in a lovely rural setting. With 3/4 mile frontage on the South River, we have lovely paths for hiking and gentle water for canoeing (no rapids) and fishing, bass and trout. During the summer river water level can be pretty low and not great to canoe. There are other rivers in the area better suited for canoeing and tubing. This area is particularly nice for biking, with many rural roads, and excellent mountain biking trails nearby in the national forest. With 24 wineries within 25 miles, you can enjoy a grand tour or just visit a couple only 10 minutes away. Lake Sherando is 15 minutes away for swimming.

In the Fall the colors of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah Valley are amazing. There is no extra charge for them.

You'll have a full modern kitchen, or many restaurants nearby for dining. The den features a card table and a large HD TV with DVD. We have an outside basketball court, and lots of area for soccer.

Behind the house there is a patio with a wonderful view of the property and the Blue Ridge Mountains. The patio includes a firepit and a hottub.

In our many five star reviews, you will read about people enjoying the games in our large 100 year old barn. Unfortunately the barn burned to the ground January 4, 2023 so we don’t have quite as many activities available on the farm.

If you are so inclined, you can visit our chickens and two donkeys, Fergie and Olive. You can win their hearts with an apple or carrot, or by brushing their coats.

We are less than 30 minutes from Charlottesville (Monticello and University of Virginia), Wintergreen(golf and skiing) and Staunton(Frontier museum and Shakespeare Theater). 45 minutes from Harrisonburg, Masanutten with it's waterpark and skiing, Lexington and the Safari zoo. About 2 hours from Richmond, Williamsburg, Jamestown and 3 hours from Washington DC and Virginia Beach.

Dulles airport is 2.5 hours and Richmond airport is about 90 minutes. 30 minutes from Charlottesville airport.

Come settle in on our farm, take in all the fun activities in the area, and then relax with the comforts and room of home.

Our minimum stay is 2 nights.

This beautiful home offers both the stunning mountains of Virginia as well as a number of amazing locations around the property. Whether you like walking down to a gazebo for a day trip, picking wild blackberries along a trail, or spending a day around a fire pit this place has something for you! The owners are very attentive to what you need, and are easy to contact if there are any issues. The house is beautifully maintained and everything works amazingly. The house itself is spacious and very clean, and the owners are right nearby if you need anything and are always willing to help. Will definitely be coming back in the future, thank you so much for such an amazing trip!

We selected this home for a family gathering and commuted to Charlottesville for my daughter's college graduation. We had a wonderful time at the farmhouse. It is a tastefully-appointed home located on a working farm, surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains and 100 acres of farmland. The home has a great kitchen with everything you could need to prepare your meals. The beds (and pillows) were comfortable. Brad was an excellent host during our stay. I highly recommend this property.

This property is beautifully appointed and neat as a pin. We enjoyed the outdoor amenities as well as sharing time around the dining room table and cocktails in the room, and chats over morning coffee in the sunroom. It was plenty big for four couples. The location made a trip to a trail and brewery easy but its views are mountains and bucolic fields during the day and enough dark sky at night to see the stars. We had a great stay.

While we did go to Wintergreen for tubing our stay at the Farmhouse was wonderful. We enjoyed walking the beautiful property, meeting the farm animals and making great memories.The hot tub and fire pit were great outdoor additions. The views were spectacular- the house itself had several assets that kept children and adults of all ages entertained!

My friends and I chose Purple Haze for our weekend birthday get away. It was perfect! Close to everything and the views are incredible. Our hosts are super friendly and accommodating and the house was clean and they even had treats waiting for us upon arrival. We fed the donkeys, met the cows, enjoyed the fire pit and the card games in the game room. Perfect place to relax and get away. We will be visiting again!

We procrastinated in finding a place in Charlottesville for family weekend and booked Brad's guesthouse in Waynesboro. And we were glad we did! The property was beautiful and had something for all ages. The kids loved feeding the donkeys and watching the cows. Not to mention the hot tub. Brad provided wood for the firepit, which we used both nights. The grill was both clean and working (not always the case for a vrbo!). Brad was a great host and very helpful. Overall, a great stay!

We had a great stay at this quiet, picturesque place with awesome views and comfortable home There was plenty of space to spread out and explore!. It was such a relaxing time sitting around the fire circle in the adirondack chairs enjoying the beautiful land, mountains, and stars. The host was so welcoming...he showed us around the farm and gave us great tips about what to do and good places to eat. It was a fantastic location...private, with plenty of amenities, and close to town. We loved our time here.
