My husband and I stayed at Ghost Pine Studio for a quick weekend getaway. For a studio, the space was nicely laid out and had plenty of space for the two of us. It was nicely decorated, clean, and had everything we needed. An area of opportunity is the heating/cooling and sound. We did not have control over the heat and it was very hot in the space not allowing us to sleep well. Also, it was noisy because the walls were thin and the owners lived on the premises. However, some of that is expected with a studio. Overall, we were happy with our stay.

Quaint stop for the weekend!

It was just what we needed for the weekend. If you want a beautiful location on a tight budget. The pictures are accurate as the shower is tiny and there is no living room space. Bedroom and kitchen space is beautiful. My only complaint is not realizing the host controls the AC for this part of the location.

Comfortable

We were in town for a wedding. 2 night stay was very comfortable. Seems like it’s in the middle of nowhere but we navigated just find. The cottage is exactly as described. The water pressure in the shower was amazing. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the porch. Cute, cozy cottage.

The Standard by which VRBO is Judged

If there is a school for VRBO providers then our hosts graduated top of their class. They should teach others. There was nothing more we could have wanted.

We had an awesome trip! The place was extremely cute and very well done. Everything felt so new and the bed was SOOOOO comfy! Amy was more than accommodating.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Hart

Host profile image
Ghost Pine is the beloved rustic country property of Eric & Amy Hart. They moved here in 2006 when Amy was battling cancer. They thought this property was the perfect place to recover in a peaceful and private setting. Over the next 2 years Amy would fight the disease and finally win, making her cancer-free for many years now. Hooray!
Eric and Amy don’t have children, and rarely used the guest suite so decided in 2020 to open it up to AirBNB guests. They love to have guests in the house and love to entertain, so it is a perfect fit. Never be afraid to text us if you have questions or need something.
Amy owns Dovetail Design & Cabinetry (Charlottesville VA), and has been a designer for over 20 years. Eric manages the Dovetail warehouse and has been a cabinet installer and carpenter for many years. Eric is a Broadway veteran, having starred in musicals such as Les Miserables, The Scarlet Pimpernel and more. These days he focuses on film and TV. Amy is also an award-winning filmmaker and actress. They have two adorable large Pyranees-mix dogs called Starr and Wynn. You’ll hear them but shouldn’t see them unless you take a peek into the back yard. Naturally they believe everyone who arrives is here to murder us, so expect some barking upon arrival and with loud noises.
Don and Donna are Amy’s parents and they live in the west wing of the home. Don is a retired fire chief from Michigan (still volunteering with Scottsville FD and Lake Monticello FD) also works with Dovetail part-time. Donna is a retired HR professional and loves to sew. She sewed some of the things in the AirBNB such as the curtains and daybed mattress. If you need something hemmed or fixed quickly please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask! Don and Donna have two kitties Beau and Celestia and one small pup Lily.
