Great place to stay!

This cottage was the perfect place for us! It's in a very quiet neighborhood near a park that has a trail by the river and plenty of picnic tables. There is a grocery store nearby, good restaurants and just about anything else you would need. The house was spotless and we arrived to find snacks, and milk, eggs and butter already in the fridge. We highly recommend!

Lovely home on the river

Lovely home on the river. The outdoor porch is a wonderful place for early morning coffee or an evening dinner. Two small parks are within walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet. You do not have to go up any stairs to enter the property or while you are on the property. The fire pit looked amazing, but we did not light a fire due to the current drought conditions and high winds. Close to many attractions in the valley and minutes from Harrisonburg and JMU and EMU.

About the host

Hosted by Sereda

Host profile image
I'm local to the area and have been hosting short term rentals for 3 years. I enjoy providing 5 star accommodations and exceeding guest expectations of their typical weekend getaway at a short term rental. My goal is to provide an extra cozy stay that you will want to return to over and over.

Why they chose this property

Bridgewater is such a cute and friendly little town. There is so much to do and so many lovely parks. Perfect place for a family or couple to spend the week.

What makes this property unique

The Wednesday Cottage is unique because of its outdoor space. So close to restaurants and shops and you still get to sit by the river and enjoy the outdoors.
