Our stay at the Pond House was wonderful! We were in the area for a wedding and the cozy apartment was perfect for our time away from home. The Pond House was equipped with everything we needed and it was sparkling clean. The neighborhood was quiet and five minutes from the airport. We couldnât have had a better stay.
My husband and I stayed at the Pond House while we attended a conference in Charlottesville. Itâs an easy drive into town, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable night. Thank you!
Perfect location for visiting family just north of Charlottesville. The host was quickly responsive to my questions prior to our visit and I couldn't be more pleased with the accommodations. I would definitely choose to stay at The Pond House again!
This is a sweet little studio style apartment that suited us quite well. It is in the basement. It was very comfortable for my husband and me and the location was perfect for visiting family in the area. Quick drive to Charlottesville and surrounding areas.John was very hospitable and quick to respond to any request requests. We will keep this place in mind for future visits.
Les points faibles : Communication et emplacement
Clean enough. Located in basement, damp & smelled musty. Also some fruit flies in the space. Open chip bags, & items in fridge. Great shower area. Suggest airing the space and turning on dehumidifier 24 hours prior to occupancy and timely cleaning post checkout.
The property is ideally located to explore Monticello, Univ of VA, Charlottsville & surrounding sites. The apartment could not be cleaner or better appointed with all the kitchen and bath items that make a stay comfortable. Our biggest âdislikesâ were that the rather narrow and steep(ish) steps into this basement apartment because they are difficult to navigate if you have balance issues (especially when lugging suitcases), there was a damp, lingering basement odor and no windows. If these things donât bother you, itâs a great value, convenient location and comfortable.
Clean, comfortable, relaxing, and the pond is right outside for evening cocktails. Lots of places to go, Charlottesville is close ( 20min drive) quaint town with lots to do. We highly recommend this charming home.Jeff and Cindy
I booked this place as a temporary place to sleep during my first couple weeks of work before permanently moving, so I really didnât need much. Instead of just a place to sleep for a few nights, I got a place that felt like it could be home with a fully stocked kitchen, beautiful bathroom, and cozy floor plan that made me feel instantly relaxed. Not to mention an excellent selection of complimentary movies. If this place was available to rent, I wouldnât hesitate to sign a lease. Loved my stay.
John & Maria's "pond house" basement apartment was just what I needed for a couple of days' quiet work, including a one-day conference just down the road at the University. I would definitely stay here again.
The owners have been so thoughtful when they set up this rental for your stay. You feel welcome and comfortable and lack for nothing. Plenty of room, perfectly stocked, cozy and comfortable. Everything was made easy for our stay. Would stay again in a heartbeat! Thank you so much for sharing your home!
The pool house was very very clean and neat! The host was very helpful. The only draw back was the lack of a shower curtian and that was a minor inconvenience
Nice area and conveniently located near Shenandoah National Park. The downstairs apartment was very clean and quiet except for the footsteps we heard past midnight every night (which didnât really bother us because we are night owls). We had everything we needed for preparing meals, but we did struggle a little bit with the mini fridge and used coolers as back up. Overall, a nice place to stay and we would definitely consider staying there again if we are back in the area.
Great accomodations for 2 people with the spacious open concept floor plan. Will definitely book again as the price and location were great for us. As per other reviews, we heard footsteps a couple of times, but nothing that annoyed us. In fact, we let out a cheer watching the hockey game which they definitely heard, and realizing how loud we were, went into quiet mode the rest of the stay. Super friendly hosts.
My husband and I took a last minute trip up to Charlottesville, Va. over the past week. We found this little gem of a place on VRBO and could not have been more pleased. The apartment is so homey and welcoming that you will not want to leave! I can't say enough good things about the rental. It was so clean, welcoming, and well equipped. We are huge fans of the Charlottesville area and will definitely return for more stays in the future. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home and we will be back!
