A great cottage in a quiet setting, but near town as well. The front porch is a great setting to relax and watch nature. This a great place for a quiet get away.

We visited for my mother’s 80th birthday and had a wonderful time at the cottage! The home has beautiful views and the front porch was our favorite place to relax and enjoy watching the birds visit and the squirrels play! The kitchen was well equipped, the bed linens were crisp natural cotton, the internet was strong and the layout offered both privacy and space to gather. Thank you for sharing your home!

What a wonderful time we had at Carol's Cottage while our daughter competed locally at the Shenandoah Classic Horse Show (at the Virginia Horse Center). The house was well-appointed and beautiful grounds ensured serene mornings out on the porch. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely cottage!

My dad wanted to drive on the blue ridge parkway in Virginia, and also visit Lexington. Went online to find a property to stay at since we were going to be there for several days. While researching came across “Carol’s Cottage”. It was perfect for us. It was very close to downtown Lexington but was on a road that was very quiet and felt like you were in the “country”. The front porch has a Mountain View but unfortunately the weather was too cold to sit out there for us “Florida folks” We stayed busy during our visit. Bernie and Carol are gracious hosts, who were available to us if needed. Everything was perfect at this property and the town of Lexington

We stayed here for a dressage show at the Virginia Horse Center. The house is moments from the center, thoughtfully decorated, immaculately clean, and very comfortable. The front porch overlooks the cross country course. The kitchen is well equipped and the closets have DOZENS of towels. The neighborhood is safe and quiet, and the owners are communicative and helpful. Can't wait to stay again.

We rented both this house and owner’s second house next door for my daughter’s graduation. Both houses were wonderful, with everything you could possibly want or need. Cozy, charming, and the best front porches to sit on with dreamy views of the rolling hills of Virginia. Highly recommend

Our son was graduating from VMI and we had family all coming down from NJ. This house was perfect! Super clean, front porch was a morning coffee haven! If you’re in the area make this your first pick!

We came to Lexington, Virginia to tour Washington and Lee with our eldest son. Carol’s cottage was perfect for family. The one improvement I would make is a larger, more comfortable bed for the parents. We thoroughly enjoyed the front porch.

We had a lovely time in the cottage. It was parents' weekend at Washington & Lee and the cottage allowed us the opportunity to spend some quality time and meals with our daughter, who is a first year student. Very convenient to campus and the town of Lexington.

The cottage was midway between Tennessee and maryland - a great meeting place for me and my sister-in-law !!! We were able to explore the local shops and small towns and enjoy a casual setting in the evenings. We’d meet at the cottage again!!

Our group was so happy with the quaint country cottage. We expanded the kitchen table and grilled a delicious dinner. The water pressure was great and a fully stocked linen closet with towels and wash clothes! The location was a nine iron from the adorable Lexington, e enjoyed this cottage very much and hopefully will have an excuse to come to Lexington again!
