A group of friends and I surprised my husband with a birthday get away trip. We all LOVED the house! It was clean and spacious. The host was super responsive. We even talked about booking this same house again in the future.
The house sits on top of a beautiful mountian in a true resort. The owner is a super nice person i had a chance to talk with him twice. Our dog who is very fearful of everything was very comfortable.
Only proble was we were only staying for one night on our way through the area.
I would highly recommend if you want to have some quality family time and love the mountains this is a great place to stay.
Somehow, although we knew it was in the mountains, none of us was quite prepared for the long and winding hill to get to the place. Our old cars struggled a little but we prevailed. There are also multiple streets that have variations on “Chestnut” so make sure you’re aiming for the right one. The park police are very helpful if you get confused. Ask me how I know.
In any case, once we got there we were thrilled with the house. There were four of us friends who would’ve shared rooms but not beds so it was nice to have an affordable but extremely comfortable option with four bedrooms. Only two of us shared a bath and it was big enough we never got in each other’s way. We had great space for relaxing or playing games, and once we decided whose car could best handle the winding hill back down we had a great couple of days visiting a distillery, Monticello, Charlottesville, and a local winery/restaurant. We did try the hike that has an access trail a few yards from the driveway but it was way too warm so we didn’t get too far. We didn’t do much cooking but kitchen was well stocked with all we needed.
Beautiful place for a great stay! Definitely recommend!
Very spacious home with all the amenities. We had a large group (5 adults, 3 kids) and there was plenty of space for everyone to not only sleep and have their own bed; but we could all have breakfast together and hang out in the living area and play games without ever feeling like we were on top of each other. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back.
Great spot with great views! Beds were super comfy and the kitchen was well stocked with the exception of bowls for soups and salads. Loads of games for night time/rainy day fun! There were a few missing things that may benefit other guests such as a charging station, blue tooth speaker for music and internet was hit or miss. House needs a little TLC for minor repairs but I am sure they are all in the works! Thank you for sharing your space - it was a fun trip for all of us.
Six of us spent 2 nights in this house. It was very nice. Even though we didn’t cook, the kitchen area was well equipped. The beds were comfortable. Would stay here again if we return to Wintergreen.
10 adults met to celebrate a family reunion, Fathers day and our 57th wedding anniversary. We had a wonderful weekend. The cabin was a great size. We did have to bring chairs in from the deck so we could all sit in the great roomand eat together at the table. Another sofa and more chairs would have been fantasich. Also a larger dining table with more chairs or even some bar stools would have helped.
We had a great long weekend at the property! Check-in and communication were absolutely wonderful. As others have said, the outdoor lighting can be a bit treacherous when arriving at night. The home was in great condition when we got there and was a great layout for two families with multiple children. Our only complaint was the cleanliness of the ovens. Other than that it was close to perfect! Thank you and I’m sure we will return.
The house was great. We had an amazing weekend. Only recommendation would be to update, add lighting and a railing to the left walkway entryway around the house. We arrived late with kids and it made unloading the cars pretty sketchy. The current motion lights dont do much. One of the kids stepped, fell off of the first step leaving the back door of house to the left bc there is no lighting. Also, we could not find any other wood for the wood stove other than the small basket provided inside. We burned through that the first night within a few hours. Again, the place is great. Perfect space for families with kids.
We’ve stayed at a few places in Wintergreen and this is now our “go-to” place. It was perfectly located and perfect inside. Everyone was able to spread out and be super comfortable! That kitchen was great and made prepping our own meals so easy!
We greatly enjoyed our fall weekend away with our young kids and family friends at Chestnut Springs. We appreciated that there were two rooms with king sized beds-something that is hard to find. Great location. We didn't know what to expect for what would be available near by, but The Market was very nicely stocked with almost anything you'd need--not a lot of little kids or baby pharmacy items... But lots of usual options plus higher end and fun things for vacation! Highly recommend!
We 6 friends spent 4 nights in the “cabin”. It is a lovely big house with lots of deck space too. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds are comfortable and the host was great! Fast positive responses to our questions and always pleasant. Would definitely consider a return visit and will recommend Chestnut Springs to friends and family.
We had a wonderful stay at the Chestnut Cabin in Wintergreen over Memorial Day weekend! 8 family members of varying ages stayed very comfortably at the home. The property was well kept and impeccably clean when we arrived. The owner was courteous and prompt with information in advance of our arrival. We look forward to future visits and recommend the home.
The cabin was absolutely gorgeous on the inside, especially the living space. Had a great time also sitting on the porch with our group - when the weather nice - enjoying the sunsets through the trees and admiring the blue ridges.
The bathrooms great and large enough to accommodate all my guests. I found the master bedrooms also very spacious and luxurious. The cabin kitchen very well stocked and it had all the essentials I needed for cooking several dinners there for a dozen people.
Working with Robert (the owner) was also a breeze when I was prepping for our trip to the cabin. He was very accommodating! Highly reccomend!
