Central Virginia has so much to offer visitors: James Madison’s Montpelier, Barboursville & Early Mountain Vineyards, Shenandoah National Park, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello and the University of Virginia. In addition, there are a surprising number of adorable shops and quality restaurants in the Main Street Towns of Orange & Gordonsville (within 10-20 minutes of the Cottage at Spotswood) and The Market at Grelen’s European Style Garden Shop & Cafe, six miles of free walking trails and pick-your-own farm are divine and not to be missed!

Not as pictured

I was very disappointed in being shown a picture of a large house thinking that is what I booked. When we got there, it was actually the cottage behind the large house in the picture. I would not have even known that we were in the cottage, unless I spoke to the owner, the day of inquiring about a question. She told me to take the keys from the back of the house and open up the cottage, and those were our accommodations. The interior pictures on VRBO were accurate, but the outside picture was not the house that we booked. I was very embarrassed when my guests got there, and I told them to go to the small cottage behind the large house after showing them the photo of what I was sent.
