Amazing

This is our second stay at this beautiful home. Everything about it is perfect. Plenty of room for all of us. The weather was beautiful during the day and cool enough at night that we were able to enjoy that fireplace. And the only thing that kitchen is missing is a chef!! We will definitely be back next year!!

Tyler’s House

We absolutely love this home! This is our 4th time staying and our oldest granddaughter who is 5 thinks it’s her uncle Tyler’s house so that’s what we call it! Some day she’ll learn the truth but for now it’s Tyler’s House. So well equipped and functional warm and cozy! Our favorite time to visit is probably October but would love to be there for a good snow too!

A fantastic experience - BOOK IT!

This annual family trip was even better than we imagined! We would return in a flash no matter the time of year. The house, resort, and surrounding areas have so much to offer and everyone in our family, of all ages, had a blast. The house was definitely bespoke, the kitchen well-supplied, and all rooms were beautiful and comfortable. Nephew and niece were especially impressed with the basement offerings. Winter Storm Kingston caused some emergency panic about accessibility and snow removal, but Nathan responded immediately to all of my concerns. He even offered to let us check in earlier - and even the night before! - to be safe. The snow was gorgeous (especially looking outside through the giant windows in the warm family room with a fire crackling) and made for excellent snow tubing. (We are not skiers, but the slopes looked terrific from what we could see.) If you have any doubts about booking Wintergreen Retreat, ignore them - you won't regret it!

Cleanest, best equipped rental in Wintergreen

Have stayed in multiple units over the years and never had a unit as clean and well equipped as Wintergreen Retreat. Will definitely be trying to rent it on our return trips if it is available. For reference purposes my wife should be the "white glove" Sargent in the Marines for testing dirt, and she is ready to rent again.

All around outstanding experience

We just stayed at the Wintergreen Retreat and can't say enough good things about the cabin, location and host! The cabin was beautiful inside and out, and perfectly described per VRBO. It is located within easy distance to many of Wintergreen's amazing outdoor attractions - we especially enjoyed Lake Monacan and the Shamokin Falls hiking trail. If you're looking for a beautiful, relaxing stay in Wintergreen, you definitely won't be disappointed staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Nathan Van Orden

Host profile image
We purchased land at Wintergreen Resort in 2005 with the intention of building a Family Retreat. Soon after we built the house we decided to try renting the house on a limited basis. We really enjoyed the stories and good times that other families were having and decided to keep renting the house. We now have several families that enjoy the house as much as we do and continue to come back.

Why they chose this property

We chose Wintergreen because my wife and I went on one of our first overnight dates to Nelson County. We toured the vineyards, went on a hot air balloon ride, and fell in love with each other and the area. We hope you enjoy Wintergreen and Nelson County as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

My wife and I are both in the hospitality industry and we strive to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. We continually re-invest in the house, furnishings and accessories. We offer a free Local Area Guide on our website, to help you be aware of everything that is going on during your stay.
