About this house rental
Relax and spread out in this beautifully-appointed, comfortable, modern home, with three distinct levels. Located at the foot of Old Rag Mountain, in a little known paradise, the Etlan Valley, Four Fields Farm offers panoramic views from the spacious deck and almost every window, with the majesty of Old Rag front and center. From the vantage point of this charming property, overlooking fields, natural meadows, and picturesque farms, you can leave the world behind. Kick back in the lower level family room, read a good book in the hammock, cook a delicious meal in the well-appointed kitchen, share family time in the first floor great room, or head out to local wineries, breweries, fine dining, farmers markets, or historical venues. Easy walks, lawn games, and bike rides on country roads are outdoor options, too. Shenandoah National Park's border is acres away, offering great hikes to graceful waterfalls or challenging peaks, with plenty of bird and wildlife watching all around. Seek further adventures nearby: Skyline Drive, Monticello, Inn at Little Washington, Luray Caverns, adorable downtown Culpeper, and so much more! You will never want to leave.

We can't say enough about this beautiful property. We planned our trip so we could spend some time together as a family before dropping our daughter off to JMU. The house is beautiful, the views are spectacular. It's a very peaceful location, but also close to many breweries and wineries. We enjoyed the fenced in back yard for our dog, Neo. He was in heaven too. Doug, the proprietor, was wonderful & accessible. We can't wait to come back!!

We had the most amazing week in this home! The location is perfect for exploring the area also for escape from the rat race of daily life! We have stayed in many VRBO’s before and this was hands down the most clean, well stocked home we’ve ever stayed in! You can definitely tell that the owner cares for his home as well as wants everyone to have the best experience renting! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time at Four Fields for a high school reunion girls trip! Highly recommend!

This house was a perfect retreat for my family. Enough room that everyone, including the pets, had their own space. Every morning I would get up and drink my coffee on the porch looking at the mountains and listening to the cows moo. It was an easy drive to the park and Luray. Fire pit in the back allowed us to engage in the nostalgia of S’mores. Host is responsive and the house is well appointed. Highly recommend. We’ll be back for sure (maybe when we finally climb Old Rag.)

We could not have been more pleased with the rental. Lots of space and beautiful views of the mountains. We had 3 little ones and 4 adults. Perfect house for our needs!

We rented this house for a hiking vacation. It was a beautiful house just minutes from Old Rag and other hiking trails in the Shenandoahs. The National Park entrance was about a 20 minute drive. Nice deck overlooking farmlands and hills. Well appointed rooms, well-equipped kitchen. The host was really nice and helpful. Hope to be back there soon.

Met college buddies here for a three night stay before we attended our 40th college reunion. The house was absolutely perfect for us—-clean, cozy and comfortable. We hiked both days (Rose River Trail and Old Rag Mountain Loop) and found Doug’s hiking binder to be so helpful getting us oriented to the area. He also sent a fabulous email detailing restaurants, shops and hikes. We enjoyed a delicious meal at the nearby Paddy O’s in darling Washington. We also visited The Corner Store in Sperryville, getting supplies for our hikes. They have delicious gourmet sandwiches and an impressive wine selection for such a tiny store. We cooked one night and Doug has stocked the kitchen with all the items you might need.
Highly recommend Doug’s home!!
Thanks for having us!

Our group of 4 adults had a fantastic stay at Four Fields. The home is warm, inviting, comfortable, clean and spacious. The windows provide a gorgeous view from anywhere in the house. Doug is an exceptional host and gave us great suggestions for hikes, food and activities in the area. There are several wonderful hikes within 10 minutes of the house, but you are also close to SNP with even more fabulous hikes and scenery. This was definitely one of our top 5 stays ever!
5.0 / 5.0
This was the best setup we could have hoped for - Four Fields was in a beautiful, quiet spot, the house was very clean and a great size, and everything in the kitchen and elsewhere was well-stacked. The house isn't far from fantastic hiking either. The best amenity though was the fenced in backyard - we frequently travel with our pets and letting them run around outside with security was amazing. Doug was a great host, too - very communicative and kind and made himself available for any questions or concerns (there were none, but it was nice to know we would be able to reach out if needed!). Thank you for a fantastic weekend. We will hopefully be back in the future!

We wanted a short getaway for part of spring break and Four Fields did not disappoint! The house was clean, well appointed and a great layout for our family. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable time. Great location for hiking and skyline drive. We will definitely return.

Our family of four had such a wonderful stay here! Doug is a fantastic host, went the extra mile with great communication and local suggestions. The house is well laid out, spacious and comfortable. Our dog loved the fenced in area and roaming the property. Our oldest son uses a wheelchair for mobility, and the main floor was perfectly accessible for him. The views are incredible and the setting is peaceful. Not far from
Monticello and Shenandoah NP which were our 2 main destinations. Thanks so much for sharing your place and the hospitality!

This was hands down my favorite place I've ever stayed. We were in Madison County for our wedding, and Doug could not have been any kore amazing or accommodating. The view is 10/10, and was absolutely the most perfect house to keep our dogs with us while we got married. The guests who did get to see the house said the same thing! We will absolutely be returning! Maybe even to go hiking for our 1 year anniversary.

The host was amazing. Perfect gateway. We didn’t need to get anything except food. The house was well equipped. I highly recommend it. Definitely deserve 5/5. Thank you Doug, great communication.

We stayed at this property for a couple of nights in late December. Its a lovely house with a beautiful view of the valley and the mountains. The house was very clean and well equipped. We enjoyed sitting next to beautiful fireplace and enjoyed. The owner was available and responded to our questions quickly. Overall, it was a great experience. Definitely recommend it if you are looking a quiet place to stay outside the city hustle and bustle.

Lovely property -- clean, spacious and well-maintained. The views are awesome, and Doug is a wonderful host. There are many opportunities to do short or long hikes within 15 minutes of the property. I highly recommend it!

My two friends, my dog and I were thoroughly impressed with the attention to detail exhibited at Doug's property! Literally any/everything you could need was in the house and the location was perfect for the 360 mountain views and close access to multiple wineries. Dog bowls, mats and blankets topped off the accurate description from many reviewers of the house being incredibly well-appointed. After spending the last three years looking for the right house for our yearly girls' winery weekend, we all decided Doug's place will be the new standard, as long as it is available!

The home was beautiful, spotless and extremely well equipped. The house, property and location were as described and made it difficult to leave. We plan on coming back.

The pictures in the listing are beautiful, but the being there is even better. The place is well-furnished, clean, and perfect for a relaxing getaway.
We loved sitting on the deck and enjoying the fantastic views. Our host, Doug, communicated well with us and we had everything we needed. Would definitely come back the next time we're in the area.

This house was so comfortable for the seven of us. The house is three levels with a bedroom and bathroom on each level. The basement level was a nice surprise with its roominess. The house is super clean and well stocked with essentials. The view from the deck is wonderful and peaceful. Doug was amazing to work with. He’s thorough, responsive and very accommodating. We toured wineries in the area and did some antique shopping. We very much enjoyed our stay and would certainly stay here again next time we are in the area.

Another wonderful weekend at Four Fields! We loved the Hazel River hike. The house is so wonderful. Love the fenced in yard for the pup, the views, the porch, the summer grilling — all close to breweries and wineries! Everything was fantastic and we can’t wait to return soon!

We had a fabulous stay at four fields. We attended wedding events at Early Mountain and this was a perfect property for our family. The house has everything you need will stocked, since it is a drive for last minute items. The views were wonderful and we were able to spot a few deer. thank you for opening your home to us.

Doug is so great to work with and our stay was wonderful once again. Slow and relaxing days - hikes with the pups in the morning and cooking in the perfect kitchen every evening. It’s just perfect!

Really enjoyed our stay for some relaxation. Picturesque property and immaculately clean, with plenty of room to spread out. We highly recommend.

Happily, we discovered there is so much more to say about Four Fields.
The location is instantly calming. We (6 adults and 2 dogs) spent the entire week at the house relaxing. The large deck has a gate to keep the dogs safe and comfy cushions on the furniture. We cooked or grilled every meal and YES, the cookware is plentiful and nice. The dogs made the utmost of their private “dog park”
Upon entering you will notice that this home is super clean. No dust bunnies anywhere- I know because I had to retrieve several balls from under the sofa and beds.
The attention to detail and thoughtful touches were apparent everywhere: Fire extinguishers inside and outside too- near the firepit; blinds on every window; a very well-lit kitchen- dimmer switch for the lights under the cupboards; night lights throughout; baby gates; and things I was surprised to find such as twine, a digital meat thermometer and blood pressure monitor.
Doug, who was attentive to our needs as we needed him to be, deserves the title super host for sure! We were blessed to discover him and Four Fields.
We are truly grateful that he loves dogs so much!! We have already booked 2 more stays.

We just left Four Fields after a long weekend getaway for some hiking and relaxation. 4 guys wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of the DC area, kids sports, etc. This was an awesome property and location. The house is well appointed and the decor is very well done. We spent hours on the back deck enjoy the quiet scenery with a cocktail. It was cloudy the first night and we saw the most amazing light show provided by fireflies for 2-3 hours. I’ve never experience anything like it, there must have been tens of thousands of fireflies lighting up in the field behind the property, truly amazing
Additionally, it’s a 5 min drive to the Old Ray trailhead and close to brewery/winery, Sperryville and the entrance to the national park.
Perfect place! I expect to be back with the family soon.

Fours Fields Farm provides an exceptional get-away and peaceful respite in the rolling hills of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. Wake up to beautiful views of pastures and meadows with the back drop of Old Rag Mountain. Relax on the front porch or back deck, take a hike on one of the many trails up Old Rag or venture to the towns of Sperryville, Madison, Luray or Charlottesville. Doug and his wife have not missed one detail in providing their guests with everything needed for a stress free trip to beautiful Madison County, VA! Thank you for being such thoughtful, hospitable hosts and for thinking of every detail to provide your guests time to rejuvenate and recharge. Star-filled Skies? Check. Fresh air? Check. Hundreds of fireflies? Check. Peace and quite? Check. Vineyards? Check (so many vineyards). Farmer's Market? Check. The list goes on and on. Do a lot, or do nothing at all. It's up to you! Thank you Parsons', we'll be back!

We are so glad we choose this property for a family vacation. The house was close to several hiking trails especially old rag mountain trail. We enjoyed eating dinners out in the deck with the wonderful view. Our dogs had a great time in the fenced backyard. I wouldn’t hesitate renting this house again in the future.

Doug was very accomodating for us since we had to cancel a prior visit with very short notice due to a family emergency. We are very grateful for that! We finally were able to spend our week at Four Fields and could not have enjoyed it any more than we did! Our son's Greyhound LOVED the large fenced in back yard! It was like having our own private dog park! Thanks Doug!

We absolutely loved our stay at this serene property with beautiful views. Our dog loved relaxing in the huge fenced yard and playing fetch at long distances. My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet and all of the outdoor space. The house itself was impeccable and Doug was a fantastic host who helped accommodate our stay on short notice. We only wish we had more time there but hope to return again. Highly recommended!

This house was just as wonderful as the listing! Nice layout and furnishings. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay. Very convenient to Old Rag…which unfortunately now requires a reserved pass that needs to be booked ahead of time. Plan ahead for that!

Our stay was so relaxing and beautiful. It was just what we were needing. Amazing views, clean, and very homey. You won’t be disappointed.

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend stay to celebrate my sisters birthday. There was plenty of space for 3 couples and our pups. The location is so beautiful. We enjoyed the woodstove, fenced in yard, and second floor wrap around deck. Such a beautiful pastoral setting with easy access to trails and only 20min to Madison. Doug is an incredible host and has thought of everything. He was doing some work in the barn next door and refunded us a night out of fear that we were disturbed. This was very kind and conscientious, especially since it didn’t bother us a bit.

Beautiful location & home. Tastefully decorated, everything you might need is here, and our dogs loved the fenced in yard. Will be back for sure.
