 Summer Visit, July 27, 2009

By Carolyn (Long Island, New York)

We had a very nice time at Afton Cottage. The accomodations were bright and cheery, clean and close to all. The deck was also our favorite place for watching the hummingbirds and stargazing. We would definitely recommend the place to others.

 

 Our vacation, November 29, 2008

By Beverly Thacker (Virginia Beach)

Our stay at Afton cottage was comfortable and warm on chilly nights. The gas firelogs kept the well kept cottage toasty warm. When we arrived there was soft music playing. Watching and listening to nature was one of our favorite things to do. The deck was one of my greatest enjoyments of the cottage. We also went to Crabtree Falls and to Monticello. Both are high recommendations for visiting. The cottage is a place we would rent again. Very relaxing, quiet, clean and private.
