We arrived fairly early before check in and called the owner and was encouraged to go ahead and check in early. The place was clean and well stocked with anything you may need. We always bring extra towels, wash cloth, hand towels dishwashing detergent, clothes detergent, and hand soap and we never had to unpack those items. It was clean and comfortable. The bed was great in so that we have decided to buy a new bed when we got home. It was super convenient to everything, Monticello's , Charlottesville, Shenandoah and blue ridge parkway. 20 minute ride and you are on a major highway to go in either direction. We always cook when we stay at a Homeaway so restaurants are not a big deal. Although we decided to get carry out at Amacis Italian restaurant 5 mins away, and it was so delicious. If you needed any groceries Foodlion was a few mins away!! All in all it was a great vacation with all the hiking it was wonderful to come back to the house with all the great views. Thank you Teresa for allowing us to stay at you place!! Oh yes and the bedside candy was a real treat for my husband!!😘
