Guesthouse vacation rentals in James River

We appreciated being close to family for our Thanksgiving holiday. The proximity to the winery was an added bonus. Would definitely stay again!

This was our second stay and was so nice and relaxing! We will definitely be back.

This was the perfect place to come back to and rewind after attending a wedding 20 minutes away. We enjoyed watching the alpacas eat their breakfast from our bathroom window!

We had a wonderful stay! The hosts were so responsive and so friendly. They were very accommodating and very understanding that we had a small child there were children’s books and the environment was so clean. I would 100% stay again and I’m so happy with the experience that we had.

My man and I had a wonderful time having a quiet and private weekend getaway. The place is so cozy and the hosts are so welcoming. It’s a beautiful view off the back porch. One of the highlights of my weekend was getting to spend time with Bilbo the cat. He was so snuggly and gave us a warm welcome as soon as we arrived! Would love to come back here again!

Had a wonderful time at Ray’s! It truly felt like a home away from home, where I was able to get away for an evening from work and normal life. Rarely have I felt more relaxed at an Airbnb! Would use again!

Chelsea's place offered a slice of quiet Roanoke life in a vibrant neighborhood full of beautiful historic homes. I walked almost every day to Second Cafe for my caffeine fix and enjoyed a wonderful lunch at the nearby Evie's cafe. I found the location unbeatable and the cabin perfect for a solo stay.

Kelly’s place was exactly what was pictured. Not only did my husband and I throughly enjoy the peaceful grounds of the farm, we fell in love with the view from the cottage. Kelly was an absolute godsend when I reached out for local recommendations in a wedding crisis! She went above and beyond! Her and her husband are beautiful humans and I couldn’t have asked for better hosts.

Once again we had a delightful stay at our VA happy place. Such beautiful surroundings and a charming house. Ann and Jim are wonderful hosts, Everytime we've been blessed to visit. If you're looking for a lovely place, on the lake, with exceptional accommodations and hosts, this is your place!

We only stayed for 1 night but would definitely have enjoyed more. Pretty much everything you needed was provided. The cabin was clean and cozy ! The bathroom was spacious and well stocked. Bed was comfy and big enough for our daughter to sleep with us. Surrounding area was simple and pretty farmland. We loved meeting Shea !

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was delightful. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare simple meals. The chairs in the living area and the chair in the bedroom were very comfortable. The area was very quiet and close to major attractions. Great communication with Brad and David.

Scott’s place was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. Having a place to stay outside of the busy city was perfect. My partner and I loved having an Airbnb versus a hotel room. We had a hotel room for our last trip to Charlottesville and it felt so cramped and stuffy. Scott’s home was very well set up and laid out. The beautiful farm animals and cute fluffy dogs were a HUGE plus!

This was a great place to stay with our two dogs. It was a 5 minute drive to town for restaurants, breweries, trivia, and music, and we found very nice hiking within a half hour or so. The place is very spacious and pleasant, easy for dog walking, and quiet at night. Elizabeth was very nice and always responded quickly, and self checkin using the code was simple.We would definitely stay here again

Bluebird is truly a vacation paradise. The perfect Serenity from the craziness of the wedding weekend. Well appointed space and kitchen. Loved our kayaking adventure day and campfire nights. Truly a relaxing atmosphere! Great host too, we felt very welcome!

We absolutely loved this place, the decor, cleanliness, and location. There was so much to do on and around the property! Very pet friendly and the trails are so beautiful and peaceful. We’d absolutely come back next time we’re in town!

Jason and Jen were very responsive to our questions and requests. This space is spectacular for large groups that want to day hike. If some of your guests want to thru hike and others do not, this is a great place on the west side closer to the VA triple crown! I would highly recommend this place for hikers and family reunions. This is a gem on the west side of Roanoke!

Very responsive. Loved the mini porch and access to the backyard for when the weather is pretty.

Had a couple of questions that were quickly answered. Everything went well.

Our Family had such a great time at the Sugartime Ranch!!! Willis and his wife were amazing and the location was beautiful and peaceful!!! They were super responsive and even set up the fire pit for us so the kids can make s’mores!! Will definitely be staying here again!!! May the Sugartime Ranch be forever blessed!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Freeman's little guest house was a perfect place for my academic work trip. The space is so well appointed I could focus to edit my lecture and other writing, dress to feel confident for various meetings with new colleagues across the university (with mirrors in all the right places), and hang out with friendly colleagues for a drink "at my place." Truly a versatile and beautiful space that feels like a home without distractions / a great boutique hotel / and a place to host friends all bundled into one architectural gem with beautiful details.

We had a wonderful stay. Last night we kayaked on the lake and saw an osprey and this morning we went out on the deck to eat our breakfast and saw two otters playing! The private beach was super close and lovely. We had it to ourselves for hours. We will absolutely come back.

A great little place. Very peaceful, lots of birds; bring your Merlin app! Walking distance to the Wetlands park which is adjacent to the James River. Grocery store and several restaurants nearby. The hosts spoil the customers with lots of snack goodies plus waters in the fridge! If I came to Richmond again I would stay here.

Freedom Cottage is as described. Host communicated very well. Everything that we needed for the stay was there besides food, which made it very convenient. Was clean, cozy, and quiet. It’s away from all the hustle and bustle of the tourist area which is nice. I would recommend.

My friend and I had a great stay at Frog Jump. It was very clean and comfortable. The host, Gail, even left some snacks and muffins complimentary. The boat by the lake was the best part of the stay for me. We’re very satisfied with the experience and would recommend it anyone staying in the area over a hotel/motel, the property is a great bang for your buck.
