In addition to downtown Cville, the immediate 3 block area has Bodos, Sticks Kabobs, IY Foods, Shenandoah Joe's, McGrady's Pub, Breadworks, Mona Lisa Pasta, Ace barbeque, and several new restaurants under construction,all within 5 minutes walk. The neighborhood feels safe , and Rose Hill is a wide, well lit, well traveled area. Many retired people in the area.

Other Things to Note
We are new to renting this house, but rent out office space and a rental house, so are used to being responsive to needs. There are two sofas in the living room and ample floor space if you need to fit someone else in, same rate, also same rate at all times.
Scott made us feel at home right away with snacks from the bakery down the street, a French press and coffee, a bottle of wine, and extra essentials for our stay.
He and his wife were also extremely helpful and welcoming by offering us flexibility in arrival & departure.
We hope to be their guests again soon when returning to Charlottesville!
We had a wonderful stay at Scott's beautiful home in Charlottesville for a long weekend. You can tell that a lot of love went into rehabbing this home. The artsy details throughout left us inspired to be creative in our own home.
Scott was a wonderful host and the house has all the amenities one would want - we really felt like we were at home away from home. If we are ever back in Cville I wouldn't think twice about booking this house again.
What a lovely home and accommodating host/hostess! This was he first experience with Airbnb and everyone on our group was very pleased. Scott made himself available for additional questions or concerns during our stay and provided great resources for any additional Charlottesville entertainment. Will certainly be back if in the area again.
Our stay was great for two reasons: 1) SUPER hosts and 2) a great home. Scott was very informative and accommodating (very smooth check-in process with an informative instruction booklet on the house), not to mention super kind and generous (we were welcome to use basic kitchen amenities like olive oil and salt, but he even graciously invited us to enjoy a night in with a bottle of wine and some dry pasta and pasta sauce in their pantry). The house is clean and beautifully laid out. And we were definitely able to get a good night's rest. Our only disclaimer to new airbnb patrons is to watch out as this host may spoil you for future airbnb experiences. Thank you Wiley's!
We are a nurse, and psychologist in Charlottesville. We own several types of rental properties, so are used to meeting the needs of guests. Having lived here since 1974, I can probably provide (or research) questions about the area. Our current listing is a 1900s house that we extensively renovated, doing all the work ourselves over the last 4 years ( and yes we are still happily married). Cleaning up now for guests on a Friday seems like a picnic compared to pulling off old plaster walls!
