About this house rental

Welcome to your ultimate getaway: Ivy Springs Retreat. Situated on a stunning 15 acre property, the expansive grounds feature multiple exterior entertaining spots, a private lake, heated saltwater pool and hot tub. The interior boasts 5 bedrooms, 6.5 baths, a 22-person dining room, an elevator for easy second floor access, and plenty of spaces to entertain, both indoor and outdoors. The layout: FIRST FLOOR: Enter through the front door and find the sunken atrium sunroom on your right. With wood floors, stunning views of the lake and windows on two sides, we think this is the ultimate day-to-night space. Morning sunrise yoga or meditation with the doors closed or a late-night dance party; no matter the vibes of your group this is your bonus space- make it into whatever works! To the left is a 22-person dining area that just received a makeover with new wallpaper and fixtures as of March 2024. Perfect for an intimate rehearsal dinner but also equipped with an unassuming 50" Smart TV mounted on the wall. Enjoy sports, your favorite Bravolebrities or whatever your crew desires. This is the ultimate game night spot! And we provide all of the Adult games (and kid ones) because we think nothing is better than a game night with a big group of friends/family. There is a half bath conveniently located off of this area leading to the kitchen. The kitchen comes fully stocked for cooking all standard meals for a large group, with double ovens, and all cookware and dishware provided. The bar stools on the island are great for the cook or bartender who wants to entertain. Ready to relax? We have some lovely personal chefs who we can recommend. Sit back and enjoy the meal being made and served while you hang with your guests. Off of the kitchen you'll find a small sunroom with seating and a separate nook with a Twin daybed. There's a laundry area that passes through with double doors to the Primary King bedroom. Bedroom 1: Primary King has its own private entrance to the pool area , a double vanity full bath, gas fireplace and 50" Smart TV. This room has an optional twin bed that can also be set up, sleeping up to 3. The living area has a new sectional sofa, a 55" Smart TV, game closets, and a pool table. There is an additional queen bed on the first floor in a rec area that has a private bathroom. Perfect for those with mobility issues who cannot reach the second floor or extra guests. SECOND FLOOR: Up the spiral staircase you'll find our additional guest rooms and baths. A pass-through area has a Twin daybed that we provide bedding for. Bedroom 2: Queen guestroom with ensuite full bath Bedroom 3: Queen guestroom with ensuite full bath Bedroom 4: Queen guestroom with ensuite full bath and private observation deck brick balcony that wraps around the side and front of the house Bedroom 5: 1 Queen and 2 Twins with ensuite full bath We are happy to discuss your stay; don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! We are here if you need us! There is a caretaker in the lower level apartment. You will never have your stay disrupted and you may see her come and go but they are ultimately there to make sure every guest has an amazing experience and provide daily maintenance to the expansive property. Our pool, hot tub and lake require daily maintenance. They are uniquely qualified to help if there is an issue but otherwise will keep to their quarters which are very separate below the home. 15 Secluded acres. Neighbors own 20, 300 and 100 acres, but the property is just 1.9 miles off of the interstate. The entire property except the basement apartment and the 3 car detached garage (storage area for grounds-keeping). Private lake NOT shared by neighbors. Micro and very small weddings only. Perfect for rehearsal dinners, family reunions or other gatherings. New open kitchen with two dishwashers, twice the original size. The layout is designed to entertain! The flow and rooms have been opened and the huge kitchen acts as the hub of a 22 person dining room, redone living room with pool table and a family room overlooking the lake with space for the entire family. Family-friendly. The heated saltwater pool overlooking the lake is the center of your family or event needs. The outdoor heated saltwater pool is open mid April through the end of October, possibly earlier or later depending on weather. The pool temperature is set at 80 degrees F. The temperature can be increased to 85 for an additional $100 weekend/$150 week. This request must be made in advance. The pool may be cooler in April and October depending on the season. Owners quarters/Property Manager maintains separate basement apartment. Pool, hot-tub, outdoor spaces etc are private spaces of guests and will not be shared by owner or property manager *Please bring your own pool towels and pool toys* In the country but still close enough for a $15 to $25 Uber!

We had a wonderful time staying here for my bachelorette party. The house was gorgeous, and was even better than the pictures! It was in a beautiful location close to downtown but far enough to really have your own space. We had a large group and everyone was comfortable—a huge bonus was the big dining room table for everyone to enjoy a meal together. The property manager and hosts were extremely flexible and accommodating and when I had a question about check out, they answered in a matter of minutes. Could not recommend more!

Was the perfect place to stay and enjoy the pool/bbq with friends. The fire pit by the pond was great for a hangout spot after dark. Great property would recommend.

The grounds of this house are amazingly beautiful - well manicured and lots of room to play. Deer walked by on a daily basis and the pond was great for fishing. And it was very quiet! While the house has a somewhat quirkly set-up, the beds were all comfortable and the items we needed were all there. There were just a few minor items that needed updating and fixed, but nothing that prevented us from having a nice time. The host was very quick to respond when we needed a few minor items. The only thing that bothered our group were the amount of bees that were in and beside the pool area. When we first arrived, they feasted on the hydrangea bushes poolside, but as the week went on, they decided we tasted better and a few of us got bit. If you are allergic to bees (thankfully none of us were!), then you might want to reconsider your stay (or go at a time when the bees aren't so busy.)

This property was the perfect spot for what we needed. My children and grandchildren, and I stayed there for two nights while we were in Charlottesville for my father’s funeral. The only drawback was that the pool is not heated and it was the first week of May, which, according to the description it should have been. Everything else about the beautiful property was great.

I recently stayed at this property and I have nothing but great things to say about my experience. From the moment I booked the property to the moment I checked out, everything was seamless and easy. The outdoor area was also fantastic, with a beautiful pool and plenty of space to relax and soak up the sun. The location of the property was perfect - it was close to all the attractions I wanted to visit, but also secluded enough to provide a peaceful and relaxing escape. . The property manager was extremely helpful and responsive throughout my stay, answering any questions I had and making sure everything was taken care of. I really appreciated the level of customer service I received. Overall, my stay at this VRBO property was absolutely fantastic.

The property is beautiful and the house is older than depicted. Still nice and we had a great time, but some TLC is needed to bring the house up to standards based on the price. (i.e. rickety spiral stair case, clogged sinks, oven replaced and covered with plastic) Also, there is a live in caretaker that we did not hear about until after booking.
