Perfect for a Weekend Getaway
My two adult daughters and I needed a weekend getaway and chose to visit Charlottesville and Monticello and do a little wine tasting at several of the local vineyards. This house was perfect since we did not intend on cooking any meals. Coffee, Half and Half and Stevia (we would have preferred sugar) were provided along with breakfast bars and apples. The hostess, who lives in an attached house, provided fresh flowers and a charming decor. She was available for any questions but we were good on our own. The beds were comfortable with nice linens. We did not mind sharing the one bathroom. Located in Belmont a great breakfast place was right around the corner. Other restaurants were within walking distance although we chose to eat at Petit Pois and Bebedera on the mall. We would definitely stay here again on a return trip!

Fantastic Cottage and Location
Janice is a tremendous host and the cottage is incredibly clean and comfortable in an great location. Parking was easy and always available, check-in and out was a snap, the neighborhood is cute, and we easily walked almost everywhere.

Lovely Stay in Belmont
The house and neighborhood was lovely, we enjoyed all that Belmont had to offer for dining and coffee. The house is very clean, tidy, and on a quiet street with off-street parking. You’re only a short drive or pleasant walk to downtown Charlottesville, we’ll certainly look to stay here again.

Nice place in a great neighborhood
Enjoyed our 3 night stay here. Communication from the host was outstanding. Nice two bedroom home in a great location. We walked to a nice restaurant one evening and a breakfast place one morning. It was also an easy 15 minute walk to the downtown area where there were many more restaurants and shops. Will stay here again.

Absolutely wonderful!
This property was just perfect for our needs. House is off street a bit, making our stay feel more private. Wonderfully clean and inviting - decor was so cute, tasteful and streamlined - I was very comfortable. A/C works well! No kitchen or laundry was fine for me - a vacationer shouldn't have to cook or clean. Small fridge, coffee maker, snack bars, and bottled water are provided. Several restaurants are an easy short walk away. There is one off-street parking space, but we found it easier to park in front. Steps to front door are steep, watch your step. This was everything we needed. Thank you Janice!

Wonderful!
This cute little house was perfect for a girls weekend getaway to Charlottsville. Easy walking distance to the downtown mall, but in a nice, quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend as long as you do not need a full kitchen! Only mini fridge, coffee maker, microwave etc. Perfect for a quick trip with no cooking :)

Fantastic property
Great place for our final stop on our college tour. Super close to UVA with a great bakery at the end of the street. Beds were comfy and the shower was wonderful! Nice to have after one place we stayed didn’t have great beds or shower pressure… the porch was our favorite spot especially in the evening. Super private even though you’re right on the road. You’d never really know because of the bushes. We’ll be back if my daughter chooses UVA!

Great place. Nice location. Excellent host.
The bungalow was extremely clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Not huge, but as described and perfectly adequate for our needs. It has a beautiful little front porch and landscaping that I'm sure takes quite a bit of effort to keep up. I'd definitely come back if I plan another trip to the area & want to be close to the downtown mall. Somehow we left a couple of items at the house, and Janice was kind enough to mail them along very promptly. A++ host for sure.

Great location and adorable house
This home was very clean. There were plenty of new, clean bath towels. Sheets and comforters were clean and very nice. Everything you could need was available--extra bathroom paper products, hair dryer, iron, coffee cups, wine glasses, and disposable cups and plates. The front porch was divine. Janice provided coffee K cups, creamer, water, and fruit and breakfast bars. Her communication about checking in was very clear and directions were easy to follow. The house was a short walk to several very popular restaurants and bars in C'ville. We had a wonderful visit at this charming, beautifully maintained home.

Three of us stayed this in this bungalow , and we loved it ! It was just the perfect amount of space that we needed ! We walked 10 mins to downtown and to several restaurants there .This place is a 10 minute drive to Monticello and UVA . There are many wineries in the area , but we chose a lunch at Early Mountain which was approximately 20 minutes drive from here . Thank you , Janet , for the fresh flowers, apples , morning breakfast bars , and coffee for us to start our day ! We loved staying here , and loved walking just up the street to have breakfast at Belle ‘s . What a great recommendation !

About the host

Hosted by Janice Kavanagh

Host profile image
Janice holds a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Massachusetts and has over twenty years experience in the hospitality industry. I love the Belmont neighborhood and have lived here since 1998. I hold the business license for the Boxwood Bungalow as the owner and I am a licensed Associate Broker with Nest Realty. So if your trip involves searching for a new home, or just want to speak to someone about the local real estate market, give me a call or send me an email. Look forward to hearing from you.

Why they chose this property

Charlottesville is a wonderful city which I call home and the Bungalow is ideally located, and easy walk to the city's downtown, shops, restaurants and year round Saturday farmer's market. I love the Belmont neighborhood with many beautiful homes and walk-able to just about everywhere in the city, UVA is approximately 2.5 miles away.

What makes this property unique

On a quiet residential street, but only minutes by foot to just about everything in the city: restaurants, theatre, shops, trails,historic monuments, UVA and sporting arenas are close by. Monticello Trail that leads you to Monticello is just a five minute drive. Carter's Mountain which is adjacent to Monticello is clearly visible from the front porch of the Bungalow which offers lovely sunrises. You get the best of both worlds, close to the city so you don't even need a car, but you have the benefit of staying on a quiet residential street without all the traffic and noise. Large front porch elevated off the street is ideal for relaxing, watching the sunrise and enjoying your morning coffee! Check in time is anytime after 11AM on the day of arrival. NO Added cleaning fees or any "to do" list before you check out. Just lock up when you depart and safe travels back home.
