About this property

Reconnect with family & friends at our large, private, stylish Wintergreen home

No need to leave the things you love about your home behind when you vacation! Our home features floor to ceiling windows, three expansive decks with a new outdoor stone fireplace, seasonal views, privacy, a cook's kitchen, and stylish decor. Located in Wintergreen Resort, it is convenient to all the amenities on the mountain, yet uniquely private. The home's backyard is the George Washington National Forest (1/3 mile away from the Appalachian Trail, which is best accessed directly from the house November - May because of the underlying foliage.) The rest of the year, a trailhead .5 miles down the road is the best access. The house is also situated across from the Shamokin Falls Trail on one of the most private double lots in Wintergreen.

Our home includes 2 master bedrooms, both with king beds and en suite bathrooms, 2 large living rooms, both with gas-fired stone fireplaces, a large well-stocked custom kitchen and a separate kitchenette on lower level making it the ideal vacation property for large family gatherings.

Our home is set up to sleep 14 in beds and 2 more in a brand new leather sectional king size pull-out sofa.

The main level features a spacious living room with brand new furniture and beautiful dry bar, soaring pine clad cathedral ceiling, a gorgeous stone gas fireplace, amazing 180° views of the forest, smart HDTV, Blu-ray DVD player. The bright kitchen has granite countertops, custom cabinetry, two sinks, all new appliances, large farmhouse table, and large island with bar sink and comfortable stools for additional seating.

From the kitchen you can access the large deck, which is equipped with a large gas grill and patio furniture, including a dining table for eight, high-top table seating four, and six comfortable Adirondack chairs. The wrap-around deck is a wonderful vantage point from which to enjoy the sunrise or sunset, or to watch the wildlife visitors. Also, a new third deck provides comfortable and private seating and a huge wood-burning fireplace.

The first floor also offers a powder room and a mud room with its own access door to the deck - perfect for coming in after a day of skiing! This level also has 2 bedrooms; one with two twin beds, and the other has a queen-sized bed. These rooms share a separate full bath with shower.

The 2 master bedrooms are located on the upper level; both feature king sized beds. One master bedroom looks out over the valley, has an en suite bathroom with 2 sinks, a claw foot tub and separate shower. The second master looks out to the George Washington National Forest and has an en suite bathroom with double sinks and shower. Between the two bedrooms is a reading nook, which looks out over the open plan living area of the main level.

The lower level has a large sitting room with gas stone fireplace, brand new furniture (including pullout king bed sectional) HDTV, and has direct access out to the lower deck. This deck has a porch swing, bar-top table with chairs, Adirondack chairs, corn hole set, and a ping pong table (paddles and balls supplied). Sitting area also includes kitchenette area equipped with fridge freezer, microwave, and sink. There are two bedrooms on this level with connecting french doors, making it ideal for families with young children. One has a queen-sized bed and the other has one set of bunk beds, and a single bed with a trundle bed underneath. These bedrooms share a separate bathroom with double sink, bath and separate shower. There is also a large laundry room/mud room on this level with washer and dryer and some exercise equipment. This is the main access room for the property as it leads directly out to the driveway, which has parking for four cars. Currently, the garage and apartment above the garage are not part of this rental and will not be occupied. They are used to house the owners' personal belongings.

Additional home amenities include free WIFI, Bose 300 speakers, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, and central air conditioning.

With our home as your rental, you will enjoy all the privacy, comfort, and charm of your own mountain retreat, while benefitting from the many amenities Wintergreen offers: wonderful hiking, skiing, tennis and golf. Furthermore, you'll also be a short drive from the many local vineyards, breweries, and gorgeous sites along nearby 151.

Winery Weekend

A mid sized group of friends (10) decided to rent a house for the holiday weekend to enjoy the scenery and take a winery tour. The house definitely lived up to expectations. The house was well stocked with the every day necessities. The house was well maintained and very clean. There was plenty of hot water and the kitchen and dry bar had everything you would need. We had fresh bath towels and clean linen.There were a couple of minor hiccups but the owner was extremely responsive. I highly recommend this property with spectacular views of the mountain and valley below.

Perfect Fit for A Perfect Trip

House was clean and the kitchen was well stocked (spices, cookware, utensils, etc.). Lots of games available for kids and adults. Soft Sheets & Towels were a nice touch (not the scratchy white towels usually found in a rental). The Owner was EXTREMLY responsive before and during our trip. Drive to Wintergreen was only minutes away. You won't be disappointed if you chose this house for your next vacation.

Perfect Getaway for Friends & Family

Better than the pictures! This was the perfect weekend getaway for my friends and I. We needed a house large enough for 7 adults and 5 kids (one a four week old infant). The house was the perfect size and the bedrooms were spread out so everyone had their own private space. The house was equipped with games and toys for the little ones. The outdoor fireplace was a great place to hang. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed for cooking for a large group. We will definitely rebook for next year!

50th birthday celebration

We loved this property!! Communication with the owner was excellent. The instructions for the property (check in, check out, etc) were very clear and helpful. The house was clean, well maintained, decorated beautifully, and had everything we needed and more. My favorite part of the stay was the outside amenities. The outdoor fireplace and heating element on the deck allowed us to comfortably enjoy the spacious decks at night. We hope to return again!

Graduation celebration

This property was the perfect place to celebrate my daughter’s graduation with family that came from all over the country. The space was opening enough to gather together for meals and games, yet had smaller conversation nooks to have a special interaction too. Julia thought about all the extra things needed while being away from home. The kitchen is so well equipped!! We even enjoyed a great evening by the fire on the deck. We only had the bring the supplies for s’mores. Everyone is our group from 20’s to 80’s felt at home and relaxed!

Great Girls Weekend!

Our stay at Arbothan was fantastic! Julia was so communicative both prior to arrival and post check out with any questions we had. The views from all of the decks and outdoor patio and fireplace were everything! This house comfortably slept our group of 9 with plenty of room to spare. The hiking trails were less than a 5 minute walk from the house which was also super convenient. One note is that the driveway is extremely steep, so we parked in the nearby culdesac the majority of the time. Not a big issue- just something to be aware of.

Perfect Family Weekend

This is a wonderful home for a weekend visit to Wintergreen (our second stay). It is one of the best VRBO homes we have rented with respect to overall quality from bedrooms to living spaces and kitchen. The outdoor patio and fireplace are an extra bonus - our grandkids loved doing S'Moores after dinner. The owners (Julia) really make you feel like guests and not just renters. Will return again for sure.

Amazing Home in Wintergreen Resort

This Beautiful home had everything our 2 families needed and more! First let me start by saying the photos, although lovely, do not do the property justice! Every room, each piece of furniture and every item placed has been meticulously thought out in order to make the most of our stay with comfort, convenience and so that we could make the most of our time. This incredible Mountain home reminded me of the type of vacation homes you only read about in books. With ample space for our 2 families, we had plenty of room to spread out. There was plenty to do with books, games, ping pong, cornhole, an amazing outdoor fireplace and various seating areas both inside and out. The well stocked chefs kitchen , which I especially appreciated, offered every convenience imaginable, along with ample seating for all. Julia was responsive, caring & an all around fantastic hostess. Thank you again for everything! We will most definitely be back next year!

Fantastic Stay!

Some friends and I rented this cabin for a weekend get-together from around the State. We had such a lovely stay, and I would absolutely recommend this property. Julia was such a gracious and helpful host, and was really quick to respond to my questions prior to and during the trip. The cabin is very well-stocked throughout, from the kitchen to the linen closets to the bathrooms. The location is great as well, we hiked the Upper Shamokin Falls trail which started right down the road from the cabin. Our group had a really enjoyable and memorable stay at this property!

Our family resides in Richmond, VA. We hope that you'll enjoy Arbothan, Wintergreen and the beautiful Blue Ridge area of Virginia as much as we do! Our favorite things to do are hike the AT behind our house and the Shamokin Falls trails across the street. We think that the tennis program is terrific and the skiing has been fabulous this year! We also love hosting our big family gatherings in an area where everyone can have fun. We hope that Arbothan can be the location of some wonderful memories for your family.
