About this property

The Guest House at Willow Springs Farm -- central Shenandoah Valley location

Our turn of the century Shenandoah Valley farmhouse is convenient for travelers (fifteen minutes from I-81, exit 235) and centrally located for vacationers (20 minutes to Harrisonburg, Staunton, Natural Chimneys; 30 minutes to Shenandoah National Park, George Washington National Forest; less than an hour to Lexington, Charlottesville, Highland County).

Sitting nearly ½ mile off the county road, quiet and solitude with some country noises should be expected at Willow Springs. Cozy up in many spots indoors and out with a good book, drawing pad, or whatever suits your fancy. Get out, walk around, and experience a simple, slower pace. Watch the cattle graze while listening to the birds chirping. Starry nights, amazing moons, and the sun rising and setting should not be missed. Come experience this farm as she comes back to life.

The hundred year old farmhouse has been maintained, updated, expanded, and renovated throughout the years. What she lacks in elegancy she gains in charm and character. You will find the house extra clean, sporting a fresh coat of paint, new luxury linens, and plush towels. We will continue improving the exterior, always insuring your visit is uninterrupted.

Come up the porch and enter the house. All bedrooms are upstairs, straight ahead. To the right is the comfortable living room complete with basic television (mainly networks via antenna and blueray/DVD player). The left leads you through another gathering room to the updated and nicely appointed kitchen, complete with a Kuerig coffee maker. The only bathroom is a simple one nestled behind the dining area.

Upstairs consists of three bedrooms. Two have queens and one has a pair of twins. Dual zone central heat and air provide a consistent and comfortable environment. No natural gas or propane systems eliminate the worries of gas in the home. The Kinetico water system provides fresh and purified well water.

Extensive landscaping frames a wonderful patio and deck on the left and rear of the home. Enjoy a steak on the gas grill or cook something at the campfire (firewood provided). Plenty of space is available for the kids to roam, explore the woods, and play in the dirt. Start and end your Shenandoah Valley vacation here each day or make The Guest House at Willow Springs Farm the vacation!

This is not a working vacation. Guests should not anticipate helping with farm chores or activities.

Pre-approved pets are allowed with a fee, $50 per pet -- maximum 2. No smoking in the house. The living room fireplace should not be used. We will attempt to accommodate your travel schedule for arrival and departure times.

Weekly, monthly, and longer term pricing available.

A Truly Peaceful Place in the Wilderness!

A great well equipped ranch style farmhouse in the middle of the Shanandoah mountains that provides beautiful landscapes and serene natural wilderness temperament. A wonderful place to let down your hair and let nature give you the rest that you crave to rejuvenate your soul!

Idyllic Farmhouse in Augusta County

The farmhouse was topnotch... Comfy beds, beautiful old wooden floors, and nice heating. For those with small bladders, worth highlighting that the 3 bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs. G.R. was a wonderful, thoughtful host. One of the outdoor cats (Hunky) was extremely friendly. Would definitely book again.

Fun on the farm!

We had a wonderful time on the farm! We saw chickens, cows, deer, a raccoon, a skunk, and some adorable barn cats. The owners are very nice and very hospitable. The farm house was the perfect size for our family to stay in and it had everything we needed. We highly recommend this vacation spot.

Great family gathering place

Willow Farms is a great place for families. My adult boys love to cook, and the kitchen was well stocked with all thevpots and pans they needed. The setting is peaceful with plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy a sunny day. We loved our visit.

Wonderful Valley Home

Garland and his wife were great hosts! The home was just as described—very clean, good AC (it was HOT outside), comfy beds and nice seating areas. They brought us farm-fresh eggs when we arrived and made us feel right at home. The views are wonderful and we were within 15-20 minutes of all the things we wanted to see. This is a gem of a home and we’d love to stay again.

Great Stay in the farmhouse

Really nice stay in this peaceful farmhouse. We were visiting the Shakespeare center in Staunton, but wanted to stay somewhere out of town. This old farmhouse was peaceful, clean, and had everything we needed for a weekend stay. The host was incredibly helpful and communicative. Use Google Maps to get there, Apple maps took my wife to the wrong street. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful farmhouse in rural Virginia

We had a lovely stay in this farmhouse. It was beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and had everything we needed. The owner welcomed us in and couldn't have been more friendly as were the other family members we met. The house was sparkling clean and very comfy. The countryside around was really pretty too. Highly recommended!

Beautiful family stay

This was the perfect stay! Huge property close to Staunton but out in the country to really have peace and quiet. The host’s family is friendly and welcoming. The provided us eggs and beef, as well as having the kids play with his son and help with morning farm chores. The home is old and beautifully restored and comfortable. We had family we were visiting come out for dinner and there was plenty of room outside to host them and all the kids. Highly recommend this stay!

Beautiful and exceptionally well-managed property in really pretty rural surroundings. Far from any hint of the city or suburbs yet convenient to amenities. Prime stargazing. The house is spacious, clean, has loads of character, and has all the major amenities. Frictionless check-in.

We had the best time - perfect birthday gift for our 5 year old

We loved everything about our stay here! We visited with our 5 year old and 2 year old. The house comfortable and beautifully decorated and the views around the area are stunning. We woke up the next morning to two barn cats outside our door. The kids loved playing with these friendly cats and running along the hills. The owner was so kind, taking time to let them help feed the cows and chickens. Our stay was the highlight of our trip - we would love to come back. Thank you G.R.!
