Home was very clean and well stocked. Front porch had amazing view and wildlife was abound. We were extremely pleased with our stay and will definitely be returning.
Such an amazingly beautiful house and view. It felt like home. 8 days of pure relaxation. This property has everything that is needed for a perfect stay. Our 2nd visit and it wont be our last. Thank you Wendy and Mike - perfect hosts.
Our stay at Windy Knoll was magical. The home was so well stocked with everything we could possibly need and more during our stay. It was so clean and so gorgeous, and the view was just amazing. We are already planning our next trip back to Windy Knoll and can’t wait!
Stayed here a few days as part of larger vacation with my girlfriend, mother and dogs. The property is in a great location and only minutes from everything we like to do. The house is in a very quiet neighborhood and had lots of well thought out extras, including for pets. We would definitely stay here again.
This is our I believe 4th stay at Windy Knoll and as always we had a fantastic time. Location is perfect, house is very clean and we had everything we needed! Looking forward to next time hopefully in the near future.
The home was perfect! We came for my husbands graduation. The drive to the graduation was not bad! The views from the home were amazing such a relaxing place! The hospitality was beyond my expectations! Would come back!
The Windy Knoll was exactly what my family was hoping for: quiet location, wonderful views, plenty of outdoor space, comfortable and clean interior, and perfectly located within a few minutes of hiking, wineries, breweries, etc.
This is a lovely house - very cozy, clean and comfortable with a great kitchen for cooking meals during covid - the area is beautiful although we had bad weather so couldn’t fully enjoy - still it was a relaxing and great getaway.
Quiet, relaxed home base for exploring everything the area has to offer. Great communication with the owner, stocked with things we didn’t even know we needed, and perfectly pet-friendly!
Another great stay at Windy Knoll! Could not have been prettier fall views with the changing colors. The house is cozy and well looked after, we appreciated all of the updates made in the last couple years. We will be back!
The host Wendy was very kind and quick to respond to us. This beautiful vacation cottage home has great views and awesome for seeing the stars and moon out the huge windows! The cottage was incredibly clean, organized and comfortable. It is ideally located to all that the Blue Ridge Mountains and Central VA have to offer. Worked out great for us to stay here as we have family that live on both sides of Afton Mountain that we were visiting.
We had the most enjoyable stay in the mountains of Virginia. Perfectly situated for an easy trip to Charlottesville, a hike in Shenandoah national park, a ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and so many wineries and breweries. The house itself was fantastic on a beautiful piece of property. So clean, comfortable, with fantastic views. I couldn’t ask for more. Great hosts.
Property exceeded expectations. Several nice touches and amenities. Gorgeous views. Perfectly situated near some great wineries between Waynesboro and Charlottesville
