Guest Reviews

The Afton Mountain cabins offer a cozy retreat with beautiful views. They are a quick drive from both downtown Charlottesville and hiking along Skyline Drive.

Wonderful, everyone was so friendly and helpful!

Perfect location for a weekend getaway! Your staff was so helpful with recommendations and calling to make sure we got in okay.

They knew us and always chatted with us making sure we were having a good time

We couldn't have been happier with our stay. The views, the guest house and all its amenities, it was perfect! The only thing that came up was one of the steps leading into the downstairs is not at the same height as the others so you stumble if you're not expecting it.

I was able to book the property easily online.

We loved the location of the Townsman - it was conveniently located less than two blocks from the Jefferson Theater where we were seeing a concert that evening. We enjoyed walking on the mall, getting a meal, etc. without having to worry about parking. Our room, The Faulkner, was well decorated and quiet for the evening. It also smelled wonderfully of coffee, thanks to the coffee shop next door!

I was wondering what the address was of the rental because my sister lives in the area and she wanted to make sure it was a good location. The stay charlottesville team provided it for me in a timely manner. Upon my own mistake of googling the WRONG address I tried to switch my stay (the google earth photos were concerning) but due to the timeframe I would have lost half my reservation cost. But I spoke with Kate who was very kind and helpful and asked me what my concerns were, and she assured me it was a great location with great dining opportunities very close by. She was right and she was super kind and left me feeling reassured with my decision. I was even more assured when I googled the CORRECT address.

My boyfriend and I were staying for a long weekend in Charlottesville visiting my sister. It was our first time in the area and the stay at the cottage was icing on the cake of a wonderful weekend. We were immediately impressed just upon walking in the door. New, clean, and modern but with a homey feel. A really beautiful space that truly felt large with high ceilings and an open floor plan. The kitchen was beautiful, clean, and had everything you needed. The shower was amazing and the bathroom immaculate. The bed was extremely comfortable and spacious. I really can't say enough great things about the space. We felt totally comfortable and right at home. I told my boyfriend I would move in there in a heartbeat.

Very personable! We had a hand written note from the home owner with chocolate and wine waiting for us! Great surprise!

Extremely homey and clean!! Would stay again for sure!

This was a pleasurable experience from start to finish. I had to initially cancel and was able to do so with ease. When our plans shifted I got lots of help identifying a suitable place for my family. I think it was Kate who helped us many many times, prompt response to my questions. SO grateful!

Great location, particularly for family with young children, great park within walking distance easy access to monticello, downtown mall and UVA

They were all helpful and lovely to work with

This review applies to all four rooms which we rented. It is wonderfully located, the beds are extremely comfortable, all was beautifully decorated and maintained.

Kate was incredibly easy to work with and responded quickly to my emails.

The cottage was perfect! It was incredibly quiet and private, the perfect retreat while being very close to town.

Great experience

We had an amazing experience at Addison. The place is impeccably decorated and cozy. We couldn't have been more pleased!

We were three couples and wanted to have dinner in one night at least. The property's kitchen is very well outfitted - we had everything we needed. We like this location because we could head west to the Crozet area vineyards, hop on 64 to head to Monticello and the vineyards in that area, or do a short drive downtown for dinner.

Kate was very helpful!

We loved the decor and layout/design of the cottage. The windows and views were awesome; balcony was a nice feature.

Everyone at Stay Charlottesville is very helpful and friendly.

The house is well decorated with a lovely back porch and view.

It was great, everyone was very responsive and helpful!

Our stay overall was so wonderful, the property was beautiful and all of the pictures on the website were completely accurate. The only issue I had was with the downstairs bathroom of the property. In order to have the light on in the bathroom, a "monstrosity" of a fan had to be on at the same time. It was very hard to get ready in the morning because this fan was so loud.

great customer service!

We LOVED staying at the Townsman. Location was unbeatable and loved the accessibility.

Kate was AMAZING!

Stay was fantastic. Only small downfall was constantly hearing the people above up walking or stomping or jumping of some sort. Additionally, some noise from the walking mall was distracting, but I was informed of that before renting the room. We really appreciated the noise maker.

friendly team members

Great location with easy access to everything you want in Charlottesville.

My friends and I shared a beautiful weekend at Addison Estate. Off the beaten track without being inaccessible, the house immediately felt like a home while allowing us to unplug and relax. The space was warm, inviting, and tasteful while retaining a sense of personality. Attention to detail through the house was incredibly thoughtful. From an intimate office perfect for getting writing done, to a gourmet-outfitted kitchen that impressed a chef who was a fellow guest, there is something for everyone. Luxurious details abound - baskets overflowing with faux fur blankets in every room encourage cuddling up, and a soaking tub in the master was a game changer. We can't wait for our next stay at Addison.

Loved it, place was really close to Pippin, our favorite vineyard in Charlottesville. We've stayed in numerous vacation rentals and have never seen one as well designed as this one. Honestly, pictures don't do this place justice, so peaceful and well decorated.
