Lakeside Manor with Private Pool & Hot Tub
The Lakeside Manor is a meticulously designed and styled private home nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountain-Stoney Creek community in Nellysford right off of the infamous route 151 near Wintergreen Resort and local breweries. This property is a dream getaway featuring one of the very few private pools in the area, as well as a hot tub, games and entertainment for everyone to enjoy, a fully stocked kitchen and just 2 minutes to local tennis/golf clubs and a few minute drive to Lake Monocan beach.
Located on the beautiful Stoney Creek mountain and along its lakes, this gem of a home has a mature and manicured feel as soon as you enter.
It has been outfitted and fully-stocked to accommodate you whether you want a quiet writer's paradise among the chirping birds or for parties that want to have an extended family get-together.
The home has multiple spaces to hangout and entertain simultaneously including the living room which has plenty of natural light and a large TV screen, the game room featuring a pool table, ping pong table, foosball table, board games, a bar, couch for relaxing, and a large TV screen as well. Enjoy your morning coffee on the main level deck with the view, plenty of outdoor furniture for you to relax on, and a hot tub at your disposal.
In the summer months, enjoy a nice swim in the custom made pool, or relax on the tanning chairs as you soak in the the sun.
Additionally, you can spend some time lakeside on the adirondack chairs - a beautiful spot to sit back and enjoy the fresh air and true nature.
As our property is nestled amidst beautiful nature, it is not uncommon to have a variety of insects and critters in the area. While we take all necessary measures to ensure your comfort by having the property treated weekly by our pest control team and checked prior to each guest check-in, it is possible that you may come across insects during your time here. Should you have any concerns or require any assistance during your stay, please do not hesitate to reach out to us as we are here to ensure your comfort and address any issues that may arise.
All parts of the home are accessible.
Parking is available on-site for at least 4 vehicles and generally driving around Wintergreen is beautiful with ample parking at most venues year round.
Our house manager Robert is available for anything that you may need during your stay! Please call if needed. If he does not answer, please text him since sometimes cell service is spotty on the mountain.
