Elegant Cottage on 600 Acre Horse & Livestock Farm

Wolftrap Farm features seven vacation rental homes, with the conversion of this 1940's era tenant cottage. Built as on-site housing for a "milker" when the farm was a dairy, this cottage is classic. Our 2015 renovation added a second bath and a screened porch for outdoor dining, with views of three adjoining horse paddocks. Guests have access to our fish-filled ponds, a swimming hole in our creek, endless woodland trails, a "play barn" with pool, ping-pong, Foosball, corn-hole, etc. Great for young families (bring the dog), girls' getaways, multiple generations, wine touring, visits to Monticello, Montpelier and UVA. (NOTE: vrbo classifies the Milker's Cottage as 3 bedrooms because of the sleeper sofa in the living room. It in fact has only two proper bedrooms, plus the sleeper sofa in the living room.)

Newsflash: We have added a Party Patio that can be booked by the hour, where you can enjoy a large Hot Tub, corn hole and other games. If you think you may be interested, pack your bathing suits and contact the owner to reserve your time (90 minutes per day for each day you stay, first come-first served.).

The Milker's Cottage is far from the sounds of traffic, but only a mile off U.S. Highway 15, making for easy excursions for sightseeing and shopping. We are halfway between Gordonsville and Orange, so you have your choice of quaint village or County Seat, each less than 5 miles away. Each has abundant restaurants, quaint shops, museums and all modern amenities.

The drive to Monticello through Keswick and Shadwell is one of the most scenic drives in America. Montpelier is just 15 minutes away, directly across the mountains you see from the front of the farm.

Barboursville, Horton, Keswick and Honna Lee Wineries are all within 20 minutes drive, and Early Mountain is 30 minutes away.

Other Drive Times: Charlottesville (25 minutes); Culpeper (30 minutes); Monticello (35 minutes); Gordonsville or Orange (5 minutes); Montpelier (15 minutes); Richmond (60 minutes); D.C. (100 miles)

But why leave the farm? There is endless hiking on the farm, all the fish you can catch, fire-pit in the back yard (firewood supplied), horses to watch and pet, plenty of peace and quiet, and room for the kids (and the dog) to run.
During your stay at this cottage, you'll be close to Honah Lee Vineyard. A hot tub, laundry facilities, and an arcade/game room are available. The cottage includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

This property was beautiful. The staff and owner were very nice and answered any questions we might have had. Couldn't have asked for a better family get together. Kids had a blast petting the horses and seeing all the animals. Boys loved the fishing at the ponds. Thank you for making our weekend together memorable.

This place was phenomenal. Gorgeous, well-appointed cottage, absurdly comfortable beds, a lovely screened in porch, with horses visible at all times and a pond that my son never wanted to stop fishing in. They even provide poles.My daughter was able to ride a horse with Sommer and played with his dogs, and that made her trip.The town is lovely, it’s extremely close to several winery, and there are some surprisingly GOOD restaurants within 10-15 minutes. The food at Fabio’s is delightful and the pickles at the BBQ restaurant are an experience in and of themselves. Food Lion is 9 minutes away! So easy, a great family getaway!!! We’ll be back when it’s warm enough to enjoy the swimming hole.Thank you!!

Loved the porch and horses and donkeys right outside our window!

This was such a perfect first stop on our roadtrip. Bucolic and warm. We played games on the porch and pet the horses and decompressed in the back yard. We will be back for sure!

Bucolic

Quiet, picturesque and plenty of history in the area to explore. Owners seem to be very generous in allowing guests to wander the property. Enjoyed the “things to know” information that was provided. Wish we had more time to explore the property and the surrounding area. Appreciate the pet friendly accommodations. Would stay again.
