This was a beautiful and comfortable place to stay, located in a quiet, wooded neighborhood with abundant wildlife and mature trees. Although the house is situated behind a larger home, there were absolutely no noise or privacy concerns. The beds were very comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, and the kitchen was fully stocked with essential items and kept in excellent condition. Check-in and check-out were easy and well explained. The home is filled with lovely natural light, and the fireplace with its cozy seating area was perfect for puzzles, card games, or relaxing with a glass of wine and good conversation. The space is thoughtfully decorated and well maintained. Overall, it was an ideal location and size for a mom getaway, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The cottage was beautiful, with lovely vaulted ceilings, lots of sky lights, and many windows overlooking serene woods. For guests sensitive to smoke smell, I recommend messaging ahead of your stay to make sure they remove any ashes and air out the cottage from prior guests’ fireplace usage. The neighborhood and surrounding areas were lovely. We really enjoyed morning coffee with sunlight filtering through the trees on the screen porch off the primary bedroom.

The cottage was a perfect homebase for our family of four (including 2 teens) as we explored Charlottesville, visited wineries, and hiked over a long weekend. The surrounding area is beautiful and we enjoyed all our deer encounters. The drive back from Charlottesville at night was a little nerve-racking as it can be quite dark plus the deer but we are city folk. The cottage is tastefully decorated, airy and very clean. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. The only encounters with the owners of the house were brief ones with their two very friendly dogs. I highly recommend staying here.

We wanted to find a place that felt like home while we were in Charlottesville for our son's wedding. Michael's place more than fulfilled our hopes. The home is immaculate and located in a very beautiful neighborhood that is great for walking. Though this is a second home on the property, it is very private. The location is also very quiet and yet, not far from the center of Charlottesville. Though I was not cooking on this stay, the kitchen seemed to be very well stocked with the essentials and more for cooking. We were accompanied by another son and daughter-in-law during our stay and there was plenty of room and privacy for all of us throughout the weekend. There are many interesting books on the shelves, lovely art on the wall. The porch off the master bedroom was a delightful place to chill in between events. The home is as lovely as it is pictured and described. We hope to return!

Cabell Cottage was a perfect spot for our family of four. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood but had no trouble getting to the different areas we visited around Charlottesville. We would definitely stay here again!
August 2025
This was a beautiful, albeit remote location. The roads getting to the house were a bit narrow and you had to watch for deer along the roads, if you don't mind the drive the beautiful cottage and yard were very peaceful. It was very clean and we had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay at the cottage!

The Cabell cottage is absolutely lovely. We really enjoyed the beautiful setting and the spacious cottage. The place was comfortable, cozy, super clean and well stocked. We really loved the screened in porch in the trees--it was a perfect place for morning coffee, afternoon work and evening drinks. We didn't meet or interact with the owners at all as the listing uses a management company Stay Charlottesville but they were very responsive. We didn't have any problems at all during our stay so there was no need to contact anyone with questions. The locaiton is beautiful, quiet and within 15-20 minutes of everywhere we needed to go. It wasn't walkable to anything so plan to have a car if you stay here. Overall, we loved it and would love to stay again!
