Farm Experience-In the Heart of Vineyard, Wine and Wedding Country-Spacious

Country Get-a-way:

The GPS address is, 5114 Dick Woods Road, Charlottesville, VA 22903.

Are you looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of 21st century living, step back in time 200 years in order to enjoy the rhythms of nature? Come listen to the rain on a tin roof and sleep in the morning until you are finished.

You and your children can feed the chickens, collect eggs, milk goats or go for a long walk. Due to bio-security and health issues we have a strict no pet policy! The owners live in a separate cottage a short distance away and are available for help or emergency.

You can ring the dinner bell or hang out in the "Man Cave" with the 42 inch flat screen TV. Come away and relax with a glass of wine in the cool of the evening as all the stars in the Milky Way pop out to greet you.

The most amazing part of this saga is that it is available only a short 14 minute drive from the Rotunda at University of Virginia. Quarters Farm is also only 15 minutes from Pippen Hill Vineyard, King Family Vineyard and Pollack Vineyard. We are 45 minutes from Wintergreen and close to many fine restaurants.

One new addition is a catering service provided by close friends. They can have the frig stocked when you arrive or cater a meal during your stay. Prices and information sent upon request.

The history of the farm only adds to the mystique. In 1745 King George of England granted 1800 acres to the Mills family who moved to Virginia and had a three story home built with 6 rooms for themselves and their three sons. This home predates the beginning of construction on Thomas Jefferson's Monticello by 18 years. In the 275 years since then, wings and additions have been added on to the original stone and log construction

My father purchased 180 acres, along with the house, in 1952. It is now a sustainable farm selling pastured eggs, and other products which are all available to our guests. My wife and I live in a house close by and run the farm.

A beautiful kitchen attached to a large screened-in porch, along with a second story porch for enjoying the mountain views with your favorite beverage. 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms will comfortably meet your needs.

ALERT: Due to the design of this historic home, there are NO bathrooms/bedrooms on the ground floor. Access to the living areas is via a flight of stairs.

We believe that you will find this home truly inviting and relaxing, well furnished with antiques and beautiful furniture. The house has a whole house generator, so you will not have to leave in the case of a power outage.

During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to Ragged Branch Distillery. You'll find features like breakfast (surcharge). The vacation home includes amenities such as a kitchen and 2 bathrooms.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine, and 2 bathrooms
  • Breakfast is offered for a fee
  • 14 minutes by car from University of Virginia and 10 minutes from Ruby Canody Gallery
This vacation home offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

Our host were fabulous, our stay was just what our family needed to celebrate and lift each other up. The house is adorable and in excellent condition. Very clean and the host were perfect communicators. It is a working farm and the host allow you to do as much or as little as you wish with the farm animals. If you are looking for a lovely weekend this is the place. The stars were magnificent

Wonderful farm visit
We had a great family visit at Quarters Farm. Bill and Cynthia were excellent hosts. They let the children feed the chickens and goats and help collect eggs. We loved the historic house and walking the loop around by the lake. It was a great base for visiting Monticello, UVA, and local orchards and restaurants. But we also really enjoyed just staying at the house and sitting on the screen porch and watching the cows graze and the goats cross the field. Bill and Cynthia, thank you again for your hospitality!

We had a class reunion at my house this July 4th, and our guests stayed at the farmhouse. The host was very nice and gave us a tour of the property. The rooms were very clean and full of character. The kids really enjoyed the farm experience, including feeding the chickens and goats, and collecting eggs.

This is our second time to stay here and it was again so relaxing! The hosts are awesome and let us enjoy chicken feeding and goat milking. The grounds are beautiful and the place is restful with a screened in porch for fellowship and food since the weather was cool. Definitely our go to place in the area!

Great Weekend Stay
Six adults and two children enjoyed a wonderful holiday weekend at Quarters Farm. The setting provided lovely views across the countryside and all enjoyed the historic property and its surroundings. The children were able to help with feeding the goats and chickens making it extra special. We all left feeling relaxed and appreciative of the time we spent there. Our hosts, Bill and Cynthia were most welcoming and helpful, and ensured the children also had a memorable time. We all agreed it was a setting and weekend to remember!

This was our second time to stay at this farm house. Anyone who is interested in farming, animals, American history or just wants a pleasant, pretty place to stay should book this property. My daughter was able to help milk the goats. My husband and I enjoyed the hike on the property to the fishing pond. We all enjoyed waking up to the sounds and sights of life on a farm. The hosts take extra care to meet all of your needs- highly recommend.

Delightful Experience!
Bill and Cynthia are such amazing hosts and the property inside and out exemplifies it. What a great place to stay for some serious rural R&R! The property was very clean. They have thought of everything one would need for a delightful get away. If you forgot anything, just ask and they are sure to help one way or another. The Fresh eggs, courtesy of their chickens, were a treat and the farm animals are such fun…esp Posy, Zoey and Hemingway. We hope to return soon for a longer retreat! Thank you Bill and Cynthia for a short but wonderful stay!🙌☀️

Kid-friendly, beautiful farm stay
My husband, 17 month old son, and I stayed with Cynthia and Bill for the weekend, along with my best friend, her husband and their two year old. Cynthia and Bill were so welcoming, greeting us to let us in, and then helping the children feed the goats and chickens the following day. They had so much fun! Meanwhile, the farm stay was spacious, clean, quiet and beautiful. The location is convenient access to lots of the local wineries and breweries, Crozet Pizza, and only 20 minutes from the downtown Charlottesville mall. A wonderful stay. We can't wait to come back!

While visiting Charlottesville for a wedding, our family stayed at this beautiful farm house for the weekend. We absolutely loved it and hope to return next year. It was the perfect place to have our children run around and play. They loved feeding the baby goat with a bottle and helped collect eggs. Bill and Cynthia were the perfect hosts. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us!

We had a group of 8 that turned into 9, and there was plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. The goats, cows, chickens, pup, and kitten made the stay even better and Bill and Cynthia, of course, took great care of us throughout the weekend. Wonderful spot for a group/reunion of friends.

Historic, yet clean and inviting!
This place has the charm of a farmhouse from the 1700's and yet there is not a spec of dust, must or dirt! Super clean! New appliances in the kitchen and plenty of space inside as well as outside to explore. The McCaskills are great hosts. Their love for God's creation was evident in the beautiful cut flowers from their garden they had in each room. They even had decorations for fall up which made me feel as if I was visiting a friend. I got a thrill feeding the chickens and petting the goats. So that part isn't just for the children! We only had three of us stay this time but look forward to bringing back the whole family in the future! Thank you!
