Enjoyed our stay--
4.6
We were visiting with our grands who were in a play in Nellysford. The home was just perfect!
Everything was clean and tidy. There were games and a very comfy Lazyboy that all enjoyed!
We were so busy, we hardly had time to enjoy the home.
Also, we were yards away from a beautiful walking trail.

This is a nice spot to use as a base for day hiking nearby sectuons of the Appalachian Trail.

Our grands were in a play in Nellysford so this home was perfect for us. It was as neat as a pin and the Lazyboys were a family favorite!

Needed to stay close by to family and this had everything we needed. Lots of charm, great heat and hot water, awesome washer and dryer. Beds comfy, easy stay, just what we needed.

I don't know where to begin. This property exceeded my expectations. Not only was this the cleanest home we've stayed in but they went above and beyond on stocking the home with items that are needed that some may not remember to bring with them. From paper products and trash bags to laundry soap and shampoo. So extremely thoughtful! The home was exactly what we needed for our stay. The beds were comfortable, pillows could use replacing as they've lost their luster and support. We usually bring our own, hut due to leaving our 4 kids home with my mother we left our pillows for her to use while she babysat for the week.
The home was located in a perfect area for nearby hikes. I HIGHLY recommend the plunge, take the long way (brimstone trail to plunge trail) if you're wanting to experience a little begginer rock climbing. (My pregnant sister was able to climb without issues so it's not hard, just definitely wouldn't bring small kids on that part)
Overall this home was perfect and really made our getaway/3 year wedding anniversary relaxing and comfortable for the entire week. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and possibly will this winter for tubing with the kids. This was our first Wintergreen experience and I have no complaints.
Thank you so much to the owners for making this trip amazing.

Wintergreen is a nice area. Wonderful nature trails.
Not many places to eat in the area..

Nice property but need to update listing.
This is a really nice property. We thought it to be spacious. We really enjoyed the well stocked kitchen but were very surprised at the size of the refrigerator. It was a small 60s style fridge. We had 3 coolers that we kept our food in for the week along with the jam packed fridge since it was so tiny. It is not the refrigerator shown in the listing.
The beds were comfortable along with the living room furniture.
We enjoyed the wraparound porch and rocking chairs.
Also there was no Foosball table on the porch as the listing shows.
In addition, there is no child's highchair as was listed.
You will need to get chairs from the bedrooms if you have more than 4 people that you want to have seated at the table at once.
We were misled initially by the listing. Although the property IS in the Wintergreen area, it is NOT part of the Wintergreen resort. Renters do not have access to the Wintergreen Resort perks.
Renters have access to 2 separate pools. We did not visit these pools but I would highly recommend visiting Sherando Lake.
Renter, be aware that this property is on the very top of the mountain that takes about 15 minutes to get to the top on a windy steep road. It has beautiful views on the way up the mountains but Def takes some practice shifting down and not riding the brakes on the way back down!
Overall it is a really great property in a very quiet community.

Spacious! We loved having the room to spread out and enjoy the weekend. Loved the location-saw all sorts of wildlife. There were some annoyances (wifi didn't work and couldn't connect), but with everything else going on at Wintergreen, it wasn't a big deal.

The house was okay, the furnishings were dated, didn’t match ... the kitchen was dirty, although well appointed with equipment.. need a large pasta pot. Oven was not clean. Grill outside was basically disgusting.
There were things in the house that would easily and inexpensively replaced rather than leave in the house.
Need a guide for the TV.
We probably will not rent again...

Just fine, not amazing.
The house/ linens were clean, location was lovely, and it served its purpose for a group of 5 ladies to get away for a weekend and there were plenty of beds, and mattresses were nice and firm.
The wood stove was nice, and sliding glass doors were new. There is baseboard heat and a thermostat in each room. It was dated, but most Wintergreen houses are, but the house was clean. There was a small selection of games and DVDs, and it's easy enough to get to slopes, restaurants, and wineries nearby.
We went in snow, so we didn't spend much time hiking or on the porches, but rather we stayed inside. The den area was a little smaller than I imagined, but the couch was comfy. The loveseat was uncomfortable, internet was slowish, and kitchen (fridge in particular) was an awkward space. There was no dish soap to wash dishes and only one hot-pad for the oven. Otherwise, well appointed, and the appliances worked well.
We didn't use the gas grill, but they had plenty of propane ready for those who will. The gals who drank coffee said the coffee maker was very nice.
Wintergreen resort didn't have a trash pickup (because of Bears, I think) so you have to go down to the resort Spa dumpsters to get rid of trash. This has nothing to do with the house itself, but is an issue you should be aware of if you stay at WG.
Again, it was good, not amazing. The value was fair, and we enjoyed our time there. With good company, it was certainly worth doing again!

The property was quite clean and the owner reached out to us in advance to let us know the ice maker was not working (which was not a big issue). The property is almost literally on the Appalachian Trail, so it was very easy to hike right from the house. The only shortcoming I noticed is that the internet connectivity is unbearably slow (I think that was the local cable system). We did the rental over a "working holiday" for me, and I could barely get my work done. Tried to do zoom meetings and had to turn off all video. That said, we really liked the place and will consider it for next year. If you enjoy convenient hiking, this is a great place! It is also convenient to the breweries, wineries, and cider houses on Nelson 151.

Great place to get away for our 25th Anniversary
This is a nice little cabin within the Wintergreen Resort. It is actually only about 50 yards from the AT. We went for hiking on the AT but actually spent more time on the spactacular hiking trails in the resort. The cabin has no AC but we had cooler weather. It was clean ( I wore white footies to keep my feet warm and they stayed pretty white). Would love to go back and try the skiing. The kitchen is well appointed with gear you need for cooking. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Avoid this home!!!
We arrived at the home and found it in a somewhat clean state; the house smelled bad, they painted and left the brush on the back deck, the towels and blankets have a moldy/humid smell, the kitchen drawers are dirty, there is no dishwashing sponge, the floors have black stains in various places, and to top things out there are mice in the house. Only some of the heating units work, lighting is poor, no provision for garbage (no tanks), no locks on the inner doors, the patio door is impossible to open and there is no A/C in the house.
4.6
Nice Getaway
Nice but definitely dated. Everything in the place was miss-matched and the kitchen was a really weird shape. The location rocked though and was really beautiful.

A Great Setting
We (4) adults spent 3 nights at this home set in a beautiful wooded mountain setting. Although it wasn't cold enough to use the woodstove with outside temps in the 40s at night, we were very comfortable with only a few of the electric baseboard heaters on. The house was tight and cozy.
The towels were very nice, thick and soft and there were more than enough available. Most of the other basics were also provided (hand soap, paper towels etc.)
The beds we used (queen and king) were comfortable, if a bit soft for our personal tastes.
We enjoy cooking and found the quality of the cookware and variety of pans more than adequate. The appliances were also very nice and worked well. Having the use of the large propane grill was great too!
4.6
Charming. Including the three bears
Very nice property, including all the essentials. Could use a bit updating. Gave the community manager one star only because we had no communication with him/her.
