About the host
Hosted by Bruce Rybarczyk
We live in Richmond, and I'm a professor at VCU. We had been going to our Afton retreat frequently when our two boys were home. We all enjoy the mountain views, the hiking and the other fun activities in the area.
My wife changed jobs and is now less able to get away on weekends as a result. So renting our place became the obvious way to afford to be able to keep our cherished place in the family and to use it on occasion when not rented, and we are free.

Why they chose this property
As you can see from the reviews and photos, the house is close to many outdoor activities such as hiking, and fun amenities such as wineries, breweries and restaurants are nearby. But the property itself is on a very scenic and beautiful wooded 25 acres.
