Smoking friendly holiday rentals in James River

Definitely recommend this host and this location. We've stayed twice and had a great stay both times!

It ought to be a collection of Such's and So's. Such a nice place and so quiet. So well decorated with taste and quality materials. Such a relaxing spot so close to the water. So so so good cookies and muffins. And last but not least, so nice people. Very lively and cheerfull Tanya, very calm, quiet and peacefull John (still amazed, 40 years later and apparently, by his wife who may still have more energy than any soldier he faced throughout his carreer . Is there any use to add we enjoyed very much being there and highly recommend the Birds nest ? Daniel

LOVE LOVE LOVE ! Absolutely so freaking cute & the perfect get away . Julie is the sweetest lady ever and her dog honey was our little bestie ! Definitely would come back!

Beautiful place with an amazing awesome view. Wish we could have got there earlier to enjoy the wonderful view.

This was our second time staying at Sarah’s property. The wooded, peaceful, and private setting makes it easy to relax. It’s a quick & easy drive into Orange for restaurants and shopping, and 10-20 minutes to multiple wineries and James Madison’s Montpelier. The cabin itself is awesome, with an open plan and a large glass garage door that expands the living space seamlessly onto the screened porch. Sarah is a great communicator, and the extra hospitality touches - like the complimentary Woodford bourbon and cigars - make it a very enjoyable stay!

This is an absolute gem of a place! The cabin is adorable, comfortable, and well-stocked. The bed is super comfortable, and the property is absolutely gorgeous and peaceful. I enjoyed drinking my coffee on the porch in the morning and drawing in my sketch pad there in the evening. Of course, you’re out in the country so expect to encounter some possible critters! One morning of my stay a funny little squirrel made his way into the screened porch enclosure, but let himself out after several minutes. You’ll also see Elaine’s pups, who are total sweethearts! Absolute lovebugs. Elaine was so kind and the most thoughtful host. She has put a lot of thought into making the cabin feel like home. Great communication too. The fresh picked flowers she left on the front porch were such a lovely touch! I’ll be back in Charlottesville soon and will make it a point to book the cabin again. One of the best Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed at. Thanks so much, Elaine!

It was an amazing stay, the host are great people and they make you feel right at home. Loved the experience from beginning to end.

Bill's awesome. My family spent Thanksgiving at his place and I reached out ahead of time to find out if there's a mixer for our whipped cream. I would've brought mine from home, but within 2 minutes, he had ordered one to be delivered prior to our arrival! He responded to my questions within minutes. Adorable kitchen worked well for our TG prep. Dining room is in a cozy window-laden spot that was perfect for doing puzzles. Bedrooms have really comfy beds and linens. Bathroom is small, but has everything you need - plenty of fresh thick towels and the water pressure is impressive. Ping-pong table = fun. Backyard was perfect for our dog when we didn't have the time to spend in Court Square Park, conveniently located right down the road. There are two off-street well-lit parking spaces. And the location is fun - eat, drink and shop; catch a movie; just walk around and stumble upon a street performer. All good. UVA is a short walk down Main Street, cideries and wineries a short drive. Go!

Beautiful land and great camping! Michelle was a wonderful host, making sure had everything we needed. Camping areas were spacious, clean, and quiet.....the perfect weekend escape!
