About this apartment rental

Secluded guest apartment on 160 acres of private land nestled on a mountainside overlooking a working cattle farm and Shenandoah National Park. Perfect for small gatherings of friends, winery weekends, or a family holiday. We are a 15 minute drive from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Swift Run Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park, an 8 minute drive from the Blue Ridge School, and minutes from the shops and restaurants of Stanardsville, VA and the award winning Monticello Wine Trail. Full kitchen and laundry amenities, an amazing view of the Blue Ridge mountains from the attached deck, and total privacy. Our family retreat for more than forty years is named after Dr. Frank "Pete" McMains, our grandfather, who built the farm complex. Pete donated 20% of his 50 year career as an orthopedic surgeon caring for severely disabled children pro bono at McMains Childrens' Developmental Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Let us share this magical place with your family (of origin or of choice)! PLEASE NOTE: the property can only be accessed by stairs and is NOT ADA accessible. NO PETS and NO SMOKING.

8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2026
BE AWARE fellow travelers: WASP INFESTATION HERE. Owners are fully aware and unconcerned because it's "the mountains". I'm a country gal myself and well acquainted with the cycles of nature, but not cool to let things get this bad and not disclose it. We're not talking 1 or 2, we're talking several new visitors dropping in every day from the window frames or ceiling fan in the living room. One evening had one come down from the window and get aggressive while in shower. If not for this fact, would have given it 5 stars because it's a nice, comfortable place with plenty of room to relax and all you need to cook, nice location, etc. However, it's impossible to relax when you're being chased by wasps INSIDE the house. Someone allergic stays there and it could end tragically, so I feel obligated to share my experience.
