The Recycled House is such a great place to stay! We loved meeting Debra and hearing about her incredible work to repurpose materials for the house. The location was great - just a short walk to the Downtown Mall. The house itself was cozy and very well kept. We had a great trip and definitely want to visit again!

We loved all of the interesting and fun things in the recycle house, and the owner was wonderful, Definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit Charlottesville!

Spent weekend at Recycled House-walking distance to everything we wanted to do! Such a quaint, unique house!

My wife and I went for a week. We were told that the tv was available to take out of the closet and it never happened. After amazing days of visiting the sites and breathtaking wineries, we enjoyed the peace and quiet of this house. Located in the middle of everything, there was easy access to food, drink and shopping. Everything in the house was eye catching and a conversation starter. This was an amazing and much needed experience. When, not if, we come back, I will be doing my best to stay in this house again. Absolutely no complaints or concerns. Thank you for a wonderful week.

Property very unique and walking distance to everything. Quiet neighborhood. Debra, the owner, was amazing. Her house is definitely built with love and attention to details many do not think of. Would definitely stay there again!

The house is charming, and Debra has thought of every detail and amenity. The neighborhood is both quiet and within walking distance of restaurants, shops, theaters, and more. I'll definitely be back.

A great time, great people and a great property all around.

It was a privilege to find this place and be able to stay in it. It’s unique and one-of-a-kind, definitely a labor of love. The location is in the heart of historic downtown Charlottesville. You can walk to the market, restaurants, movies or music in the park. It’s perfect. Debra greeted us with cookies from the local bakery, fresh ground coffee and a few extras in the fridge. She was warm and friendly and we felt it was treat to stay in this place. Pictures are accurate but you must see in person. Very clean. Beds are high quality and comfortable. Sleeps 6. We will definitely return!

We had a wonderful experience for our annual girls weekend getaway. The house is unique, clean, and in a great location. Debra was kind, easy to communicate with and truly cares about the property. Would definitely stay again if back in the area!

Peaceful and quiet. Close to downtown and restaurants. Love the accents and decor of the rental home. Definitely plan to come back!

We stayed at the Recycle House in 2019 when visiting our daughter who was a first year student at UVA. We enjoyed it so much that we made sure to reserve it a second time in May 2023 when we came to see her graduate! It was just as we remembered it and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is a lovely and comfortable house with so much unique character. Debra is an attentive host with great communication. The house has everything you could possibly need or want and the location can’t be beat. The freshly ground coffee and delicious cookies waiting for us when we arrived were an extra special treat! We look forward to staying here again the next time we come to Charlottesville.

What a beautiful home! Debbie was gracious enough to meet us upon arrival to go through the history of the house along with pointing out where everything was. Before our arrival she pointed out some must-see features of beautiful Charlottesville! The house was whimsical, charming and had everything you could need, and our walks through the UVA campus, and dinner at C&Os was amazing for an intimate anniversary dinner. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality and an amazing stay at your Recycle House Jewel! David and Kristin

The location close to the pedestrian mall and downtown is ideal. Great for walking to these locations. The home is well-appointed and has everything for a comfortable stay. Quiet neighborhood.

Great place.

Very nice, unique property in great location!

My friends and I had a great weekend at the Recycled House. It was very cozy and Debra was a great host!

This house is adorable-well built, clever design and re-use of building materials. Fabulous results!

Everything was wonderful from checking in to leaving. Very warm welcome. Place was so cozy and quiet. We slept so well there. Walked to the Downtown Mall for Dinner. Loved everything about our stay!!

We loved our stay at the recycled house! We wanted to be within walking distance to the pedestrian mall and this house was perfect. Upon arrival Debra met us at the house and we loved learning the history and all of the stories behind everything used in the house. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and we enjoyed cooking and dining in the comfortable space. Debra has gone out of her way to provide special extra touches. The house was spotless I especially loved the heated bathroom floors! We will be back!!

Unfortunately my husband and i both got covid a couple of days before we were to travel to Charlottesville! I contacted Debra immediately and she is allowing us to reschedule our stay! We recovered and were able to make the second half of our trip to Afton with extended family but are so excited to return to stay at Debras!

We loved our stay here! This place is versatile, beautiful, and just down right awesome!! Great location near downtown but also secluded and quiet. I would come back in a heart beat!

We had a wonderful week long stay! Convenient to everything we needed- restaurants and just cycling and walking around town. The comfortable home is very unique and this novelty sure added to our experience!

There's no other place my wife and I will stay when we visit Charlottesville!!!

We had a great stay for graduation weekend here. Home is easily accessible to all parts of Charlottesville area, has parking and a well appointed kitchen. Debra left thoughtful touches for our arrival-delicious cookies and coffee for the morning. Beds are comfy and access to laundry came in handy. Debra was also flexible and kind about our checkout when we had an unexpected ER visit with one of our sons.

We rented The Recycled House to stay in while our son had major spine surgery at UVA hospital. The home was my haven after long days sitting in the hospital. Due to Covid restrictions only one of us could stay with our son, my husband spent his days at the Recycled House. He was thankful it was close enough to walk to Main St and many little shops and restaurants to occupy his time and mind. The owner, Debra, was so wonderful about communication and assistance. We had an issue with parking and one of the “Karen” neighbors who wasn’t happy with us parking across the alley where we’d been instructed to park. Debra responded immediately when I texted that the neighbor lady had confronted us. She meet us at the home and showed us an alternate location to park. Tip….. Don’t drive a big vehicle, we drove our Nissan Titan double cab truck, parking at the Recycled House and in the hospital parking garage, as well as, a majority of the little shops are not laid out to accommodate a large vehicle. This was the only hiccup during our stay. I appreciate Debra being close by and responding immediately. Debra said she keeps the house stocked as if friends are coming over to stay. She truly does a lovely job of accommodating your every need from her handmade laundry detergent to her bringing delicious cookies by to welcome us. The Recycled House is in a very populated neighborhood but inside it is so quiet you forget there are neighbors on all sides. This is a great home for reading a book and relaxing. Thank you Debra for allowing us to rent your home. It was 1000% better than staying in a hotel near the hospital!

Excellent location, wonderful property.

The house was great! Many different areas of the home to enjoy for reading and relaxing. The historic downtown area was an easy walk away. We really enjoyed the home.

We can't wait to return to this wonderfully quirky - in the best possible way - home. Debra, the owner, has created warm, welcoming, and charming interiors filled with natural light. The location, just a short walk to shops and restaurants, can't be beat. Given it's in-city setting, we were surprised by the quiet and tranquility. If the somewhat steep stairs aren't an issue for you, this is a must-stay in downtown Charlottesville.

Thank you, Debra, for sharing your amazing, quirky (in a great way) and very comfortable house with us. We enjoyed the tour and hearing the story of how it came to be. We were in town to visit our son at UVA and though we were on the go most of the weekend, we were able to find some time to enjoy and relax by the lovely fireplace. The bed is comfy, heated floors in the baths were cozy and the house had all of amenities we needed, including delicious cookies in the cookie jar! The neighborhood is nice, quiet and an easy walk from the downtown mall. We look forward to staying there again!

Great!

Wonderful property with superb host! Truly an exceptional experience.

This house did not disappoint! So unique abs welcoming! Soft towels and comfy bed. Very quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed a quick tour and learned the uniqueness of the house-it’s very special! Cookies were delicious! Looking forward to staying again!
