Perfect place for a larger group

This is our 3rd time that we stay at this place. It's very convenient for everything we need and spacious enough to fit our group. Having 4 bedrooms with a large living room is great. No issues at all

Great place to stay

This is a wonderful place to stay. It's in the right location, close to everything we wanted (including our friends who live literally down the street). The place was larger than expected. Comfortable, very clean and plenty of room for everyone. Having a general store downstairs is extremely convenient. We forgot a few things like oil and butter and not a problem. Walk downstairs and you got it.. including a nice beer selection :)

Snow bunnies gather

Great experience. All amenities were great, and we plan on staying again soon. It would be nice to have laundry soap and some extra paper towel rolls available to be able to be able to preemptively clean the towels and wipe down the countertops/ children’s spills.

Had an Amazing time!!

Great place very warm and homey. It is much bigger in person. We had 9 people and never once felt crowed. Greatest thing is the store being so close. Beautiful area with lots to see and explore!! I would definitely stay here again when I come back this way.

Kids said this was the "Greatest Snow Trip Ever!"

The rental was spacious and clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed for our large group and the accessibility and convenience of the location was fantastic. The beds were comfy, there were enough towels and pillows and blankets, the kitchen had all of the essentials we needed to cook and if we forgot anything, all we had to do was pop downstairs to the store. The host Tammy was incredibly helpful and super friendly. She made sure we were comfortable and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We were already planning our next trip before this one was even over!

It is a great location... store has plenty of supplies... gas/fuel is very reasonably priced

The owners were very accommodating... the location was perfect as we went to a wedding down Inspiration Drive. The place is larger then the pictures showed... plenty of room for all 8 of us!

Comfy and cozy

Our family stayed at Amador Station over the long New Years holiday. The cabin lived up to our expectations. We loved having the market and gas station on site. Extemely convenient. Perfect location and close to Kirkwood Ski Resort. The cabin/home was very roomy, comfortable and clean. The home was appointed with everything we needed to prepare our meals, which was wonderful for the six of us. There were extra bedding and a washer and dryer. Loved that - went home with a suitcase of clean clothes. There were games and some toys, which our kids enjoyed. The owner of the property, Tammy, is wonderful! We will definitely stay here again.

Inside is much nicer then you might think for being above a business. VRBO listing was accurate. Would give it 5 stars if it had wi-fi.

Amazing stay

My husband and I stayed at Amador Station recently. Wayne and Tammy were very helpful and nice to deal with. It is a great central location to everything in area. The home is very comfortable and clean as advertised. It was nice to get up and have a cup of coffee from the store below, get our fuel and snacks and be on the road in no time to our destination. This would be a great spot for skiers to stay during the winter as well, as it is close the snow country and Wayne said that they keep the parking lot clear of snow for their guests and customers. No need to clear all the snow yourself like other places.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy Ricci

Host profile image
Tammy and Wayne grew up in the local area, went to school and college together. After 20+ years of working in their respective careers, they decided to venture out on their own and purchase Amador Station Gas and Grocery. While Tammy has 30+ years of Retail/Customer Service experience, Wayne has been in the Construction Management field for just as long. They love where they grew up and would love to share their knowledge with others regarding the local area.

Why they chose this property

Wayne actually worked at the gas station as a young man, fueling vehicles and washing windows in the early 80's. On holiday weekends he still gets a kick out of providing customer service and fueling cars for travelers. Why this property? Because it still has the small town, 'mom and pop' feel in the little grocery store. The locals come in daily and entertain them with tales of the days events. When the property came available Tammy and Wayne were certainly on board to step away from the corporate life and try something new. Since the property includes a residence upstairs, they thought what a great place for travelers to make their base while exploring the local History, Lakes, Trails and much more.

What makes this property unique

Easy and quick access to Historic Highway 88, Plenty of parking for our guests with trailers. Close proximity to Omo Ranch Rd and PiPi Valley and its Offroad Motor Sporting fun. We are also very close to the upper end of the Shenandoah Valley wine experience. Minutes from Multiple lakes and Rivers. Our Guests can enjoy hiking, fishing, snowmobiling, skiing, dirt bike riding, Historic and amazing vistas, metal detecting, gold panning, hunting, swimming, bicycling, Golf all within minutes from our location. We have a very nice restaurant next door to the facility. During the winter time we keep the parking lot clear of snow during business hours, so if you want to head to the slopes, you'll have no obstacles to slow you down. Small grocery store onsite is a big plus.
