Sunrise
Hammock. Long naps. Short naps. It’s all good at H’Owl at the Moon Farm
The views never disappoint- and you never know what you’re going to get.
An early moon sunset...
Or sometimes even a rainbow
Or TWO!
Meet Guinness the Wonder Dog. It’s his place... he just lets me think it’s mine
And after a long day of exploring, we turn to what we both do best...
RELAXING
...and losing ourselves in sweet, silent stillness
Cabin is only 8 miles from the mighty James River.
One of Virginia’s most scenic waterways

About this place

H’Owl at the Moon Farm

"Into the forest I go... to lose my mind and find my soul." -John Muir

Incredible cabin nestled on a hill on 66 very private acres. H'Owl at the Moon Farm was completed in 2016. Relax and unwind under incredible stars and listen to the night sounds of frogs, crickets, owls, and sometimes coyotes.

Close proximity to James River and tubing, UVA, and many wineries. You won't see any neighbors but you will see millions of stars and gain the serenity that can only come from unplugging from the world for a few days. No wi-fi, no cable, and, unless you have Verizon, no cell signal.

Feels remote yet only 20 minutes away from all that Charlottesville has to offer!

Cabin is conveniently located in the heart of the Virginia wine, beer and cider trail. While many popular attractions await you, most guests decide that returning to the cabin is the highlight of each day.

Guided winery and brewery tours available for $200/day (1-4 guests, 8 hours) based on availability of car and driver. Inquire any time.

Although easily accessible, the roads leading to the cabin and the driveway are all gravel. I have never had any problem with friends getting to the cabin in everything from a Tesla to an RV. That said, don't wash and wax your car and expect it to stay that way :-). All Access, Including 66+ acres to hike and explore. I also have an agreement with my neighbors who lease 500 surrounding acres which you can hike and four-wheel in all months but mid September - early January (hunting season).

Treat the house as if it were your own. Bring horses or four-wheelers but absolutely no shooting of any animals of any kind (in or out of season) without my expressed and prior approval.

I live locally (but not close) and am available via phone and email to answer any questions or to visit in person if desired. Sometimes I am around to greet guests in person. When I am not, the caretaker Diana will check with you on arrival day to make sure you got settled in and answer any questions you may have.

*** Note that this listing is 'pets considered' please do not send a booking request without first sending an inquiry. I need to know the type and number of pets prior to booking. I don't charge a pet fee but am selective about the number and type of pets I will allow.

*** Please do not split weekends unless booking a full week. If booking a Friday or a Saturday only, please inquire before sending a booking request. Since most renters book full weekends, 1/2 weekends usually lead to vacancies. I am more flexible about this during non-peak season.

I used to describe myself as an old soul... now I am just old. But not tired (yet). City boy turned country and never looked back. Green Acres is the place for me!
