Country Cottage with Modern Amenities

Summary:
Looking to get away from the city and relax in Virginia's countryside?

Welcome to the Shade Tree Cottage! This home dates back to the Civil War and is full of cottage vibes. Located just a 3-minute drive from the town of Gordonsville, the home is a perfect combination of rural retreat and launching point to some of Central Virginia's best area amenities.

The Space:
There is so much to see and do within driving distance to The Shade Tree Cottage which is one of our favorite features!

The Cottage was originally only one room and served as a blacksmith's workshop and home. Over the years, the house has been added onto, room-by-room, to what you see today. The home itself tops out at about 1,000 square feet.

The Cottage is situated at the end of a long driveway with private parking for guests.

You will have full access to the home. This includes the front patio, back deck, propane grill, outdoor fire pit, front lawn, backyard, EV charger, and private, off-street parking in the driveway.

The Neighborhood:
The Shade Tree Cottage is a 3-minute drive to the town of Gordonsville. The historic downtown Gordonsville has a laid-back, small-town vibe that features locally-owned shops to go along with a handful of casual restaurants.

Getting Around:
Driving is recommended. The town does not have Uber or Lyft. Downtown Gordonsville is great to explore by foot!

Other Things to Note:
To maintain a secure premise, the Shade Tree Cottage is equipped with an exterior camera on the front porch. The camera is ONLY on the exterior, and there are no cameras inside.

The cottage is in close proximity to The Little House (our other rental property).

The house is old! Like, Civil War old. You may see the occasional bug. The house is thoroughly cleaned after every guest. We have a pest company that services the house on a monthly basis. If you see a cricket, ladybug, etc, it most likely showed up after the cleaning and prior to your arrival.

The neighbors have an outdoor shooting range in the adjacent woods of their property. You may hear them using the range in the warm months. It is facing away from our property and does not pose any danger to our guests.

We are in the process of updating the landscaping. Currently, the landscaping is overgrown in some parts, barren in other parts, and generally in need of some love! Thank you for your patience as we improve the curb appeal over the next few months.

The indoor fireplace is not currently operational, but we are working on it!

The parking area and driveway are located about 75 feet from the front door.

The laundry room is used by our housekeeper for this house as well as the neighboring Little House. There is an exterior entrance from the outside to the laundry room. The door from the kitchen to the laundry room will be locked if the laundry room is in use by the housekeeper. Otherwise, the laundry room door will be open and unlocked for your use.

Absolutely no smoking inside the house. A $500 fine will be imposed if evidence of smoking has occurred inside the home. If you smoke outside of the home, please properly discard all smoking remnants. A $250 fine will be imposed if smoking litter is found on the property.

We stayed here for graduation weekend since our daughter was graduating from UVA. Very quiet and peaceful. It is a 30 minute drive from Charlottesville but we enjoyed the drive since you have a beautiful country view when driving around. Also it is located near many vineyards which is great. We got to visit 2 of them. We truly annoyed our 4 nights/5 day stay.

We had a family wedding in Gordonsville and couldn’t resist staying in this wonderful little cottage. When we arrived, the first thing I noticed was how clean and neat the cottage was. It’s an older home, but had all the modern amenities that we needed and we’re very pleased with all the comforts that were provided. They thought of everything. Can’t wait to get a chance to stay again. !!

My husband and I had a wonderful visit to Gordonsville. We absolutely loved the Shade Tree Cottage and all of the amenities it has to offer. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner & Bingo at the Well Hung Bar and toured the towns in and around the area. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a great stay in this beautiful cottage! It has everything you could possibly need. Very clean, cozy and comfortable, all in a peaceful country setting, but yet conveniently located a couple minutes from Gordonsville, and not far from Charlottesville. Love the fact that it’s pet friendly, would definitely like to stay here again and bring our dogs!

Shade Tree Cottage was one of the BEST properties we have rented through VRBO. So well-equipped, clean, and charming. We very much enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend it to anyone considering staying there.

Just spent a week at this property and it was great. Location, cleanliness, and amenities were excellent. Appreciated little extras like the wireless chargers by the bed and the labels to help figure out things like the fans and AC units. Everything was super clean when we arrived and the hosts were very responsive when we ran into an issue (that was no fault of theirs.) Fully recommend!

I cannot say enough about one of the best Vrbo stays we've had. The property is just as pictured. Quaint, cozy and fully stocked with just about anything you could possibly need for your stay. And the history of the cottage is interesting. Although we were plagued by rain during our stay, we did have enough of a clearing on our 2nd day to enjoy the views from the back deck while enjoying our morning coffee from the dual brew/Keurig coffeemaker. We slept comfortably, relaxed, and were able to enjoy a concert in Charlottesville, which is a short ride away. We have already decided that this will be our base when we return. A million stars for the Shade Tree Cottage!

This quaint little house was perfect for a weekend get away. My girlfriend and I used it to get out of dodge. Everything was as described in the listing. The amenities were perfect. My girlfriend and I enjoy weekend trips from time to time, and we are already planning on going back. Thanks to the owner, Matt, for a wonderful opportunity to get away and relax.

We stayed for 5 nights while we visited wineries and Shenandoah National Park. This was the most well stocked property we've ever visited. Kitchen, bathroom, everything is provided. We usually have to run to a grocery store after we arrive, but everything we needed was there. Gordonsville is a beautiful town and there are many dining options. Barboursville Winery is about a 15 minute drive and we enjoyed tasting one day and lunch at their restaurant another day. Matt is very easy to work with and I highly recommend this property.
