Cottage on Working Turkey and Bee Farm in the Heart of Crozet

Very cute cottage and lovely deck for enjoying coffee and/or cocktails. My 3-year old granddaughter was thrilled with the turkeys! She enjoyed talking to them and having them talk back. This is an experience she will never forget.

Lovely little space on a great working farm. Cozy, quiet, and proximity to plenty of amazing nature and activities. Highly recommended

Loved staying at the Birds and Bees Cottage. It was so peaceful waking up each day, sitting on the porch and enjoying the views of the farm. This cottage was the perfect spot to unwind after visiting some local wineries. It was quiet and very easy to relax on the porch with a good book in the evening. Hope to return in the fall.

What an amazing location and charming house this is. It was perfect for a week out in the beautiful landscape of Crozet VA. I loved sitting on the back deck and looking out at the mountains in the distance and the farm animals very close (but behind a fence). The house was clean and well stocked and I had no issues with any of the appliances or fixtures. It's a great location only minutes from the polo fields and surrounded by beautiful vineyards, orchards and markets. I met Judd on the first day and he was very welcoming and accommodating. I would absolutely stay here again in the future!

This setting was absolutely bucolic, and the views of the Blue Ridge Mountains were stunning. But it seemed as if the owner was not ready for our visit. We arrived on a very chilly day, and the heaters had been turned on, but not long enough to warm up the cottage. We actually had to sleep in our coats it was so cold that first night. It took almost 24 hrs for the cottage to feel comfortable. It appeared that we were the first guests of the year, and the cottage had not been deep cleaned since the last visitors from the previous October as the fireplace was full of spent ashes, there were dead stink bugs everywhere, cobwebs in the corners, dust on the baseboards, and the place smelled very musty.Otherwise the cottage was great. The kitchen was well equipped with full size appliances which we appreciated because we were there for 10 days, and cooked a lot of our meals. It was nice having a mini washer & dryer to use. The bed was very comfortable, the tv was huge, and plenty of hot water. The owner was super friendly, and let us observe the arrival of 18,000 turkey eggs to his farm. We enjoyed watching the llamas, and the birds feeding on the deck each morning. The location was perfect for us as my family lives within 15 minutes of the farm.So even though our first impression of the place could have been better, it would not stop us from returning.

Lovely little cottage in the country. Perfect porch for sipping coffee in the morning or watching to sunset. Close to wineries, breweries, hiking and not far from Charlottesville! We enjoyed sitting around the fire pit in the Adirondack chairs.

Our hiking trip to Shenandoah Nat park was unexpectedly enhanced by our stay at Birds and Bees cottage! What a lovely, comfortable place with amazing view of the Blue Ridge Mountains and acres of pastures. The turkeys and llamas were so interesting to watch. I particularly liked when the turkeys gobbled in unison! The owners were very nice and informative. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

We had a great time and really enjoyed the fire pit.

My family of three (2 adults and one 3yo) had the best time at the cottage. As we approached upon arrival we had breathtaking views of fields and fields of pink-blossomed peach trees. The view from the cottage itself was beautiful, with mountains in the distance and a peaceful farm in the forefront. Highlights were having breakfast views of the llamas each morning and seeing the trains go by daily. The home itself was very comfortable and the fireplace a bonus. We hope to return in warmer weather to take advantage of the porch, grill, and firepit…and of course to see the turkeys! The hosts were great! Location was central to vineyards, kid activities (check out Pickle Meadow Farms!), orchards, and more.

We had a really nice time at this beautiful farm. It's a unique experience being able to stay on a working turkey farm with guard llamas and we enjoyed it thoroughly. The property is centrally located to much of the Shenandoah National Park area, making it a convenient base camp. The hosts are wonderful people and I highly recommend this location.

Super cute cottage on a beautiful property with a great Mountain View. Clean, cute, close to 151 trail, and a minute down the road from a peach orchard. Water pressure in kitchen was a little low but no problems in the bathroom. Beds were comfortable, would 100% stay again!
