Stunning Old Rag and Shenandoah Vistas from this Gorgeous, Peaceful Retreat

Relax and spread out in this beautifully-appointed, comfortable, modern home, with three distinct levels. Located at the foot of Old Rag Mountain, in a little known paradise, the Etlan Valley, Four Fields Farm offers panoramic views from the spacious deck and almost every window, with the majesty of Old Rag front and center. From the vantage point of this charming property, overlooking fields, natural meadows, and picturesque farms, you can leave the world behind. Kick back in the lower level family room, read a good book in the hammock, cook a delicious meal in the well-appointed kitchen, share family time in the first floor great room, or head out to local wineries, breweries, fine dining, farmers markets, or historical venues. Easy walks, lawn games, and bike rides on country roads are outdoor options, too. Shenandoah National Park's border is acres away, offering great hikes to graceful waterfalls or challenging peaks, with plenty of bird and wildlife watching all around. Seek further adventures nearby: Skyline Drive, Monticello, Inn at Little Washington, Luray Caverns, adorable downtown Culpeper, and so much more! You will never want to leave.

Four Fields Farm is served by Piedmont Broadband, a local, well-respected, antenna based internet provider. Piedmont Broadband has an excellent track record by always providing quick customer service and consistent reliabiliy, with download speeds of at least 10 Mbph and upload speeds of at least 3 Mbph. Many guests comment on consistent and reliable internet service provided by Piedmont Broadband, as well as the ability to stream various TV services and telework with confidence.

The kitchen at Four Fields Farm is spacious and well-equipped. There are plenty of pots and pans, dishes and silverware, as well as knives that are regularly sharpened. We provide towels, bed linens, paper products, coffee filters, trash bags, aluminum foil, sandwich bags, wax and parchment paper, food storage containers, simple soaps for both the bath and kitchen, and laundry facilities. There is seasoned oak firewood for the outdoor fire pit and wood stove. There is also a charcoal grill, with briquettes, chimney starter and newspaper on the lower level porch. There are recycling bins in the laundry room. We strive to provide all the basic items to manage the house.

If you want to hike, there is a variety of information in the bookcase in the foyer, including USGS topo maps, books, and every trail map published by the Shenandoah National Park in a three-ring binder. We also provide short descriptions on many of the local hiking trails, restaurants, wineries, and breweries.

Beautiful House with views of Old Rag
We rented this house for a hiking vacation. It was a beautiful house just minutes from Old Rag and other hiking trails in the Shenandoahs. The National Park entrance was about a 20 minute drive. Nice deck overlooking farmlands and hills. Well appointed rooms, well-equipped kitchen. The host was really nice and helpful. Hope to be back there soon.

Perfection for a base for hiking
Met college buddies here for a three night stay before we attended our 40th college reunion. The house was absolutely perfect for us—-clean, cozy and comfortable. We hiked both days (Rose River Trail and Old Rag Mountain Loop) and found Doug’s hiking binder to be so helpful getting us oriented to the area. He also sent a fabulous email detailing restaurants, shops and hikes. We enjoyed a delicious meal at the nearby Paddy O’s in darling Washington. We also visited The Corner Store in Sperryville, getting supplies for our hikes. They have delicious gourmet sandwiches and an impressive wine selection for such a tiny store. We cooked one night and Doug has stocked the kitchen with all the items you might need. Highly recommend Doug’s home!! Thanks for having us!

Idyllic Spot
Our group of 4 adults had a fantastic stay at Four Fields. The home is warm, inviting, comfortable, clean and spacious. The windows provide a gorgeous view from anywhere in the house. Doug is an exceptional host and gave us great suggestions for hikes, food and activities in the area. There are several wonderful hikes within 10 minutes of the house, but you are also close to SNP with even more fabulous hikes and scenery. This was definitely one of our top 5 stays ever!

Fantastic, pet-friendly stay!
This was the best setup we could have hoped for - Four Fields was in a beautiful, quiet spot, the house was very clean and a great size, and everything in the kitchen and elsewhere was well-stacked. The house isn't far from fantastic hiking either. The best amenity though was the fenced in backyard - we frequently travel with our pets and letting them run around outside with security was amazing. Doug was a great host, too - very communicative and kind and made himself available for any questions or concerns (there were none, but it was nice to know we would be able to reach out if needed!). Thank you for a fantastic weekend. We will hopefully be back in the future!

Great spot!
We wanted a short getaway for part of spring break and Four Fields did not disappoint! The house was clean, well appointed and a great layout for our family. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable time. Great location for hiking and skyline drive. We will definitely return.

Beautiful setting, comfortable and clean!
Our family of four had such a wonderful stay here! Doug is a fantastic host, went the extra mile with great communication and local suggestions. The house is well laid out, spacious and comfortable. Our dog loved the fenced in area and roaming the property. Our oldest son uses a wheelchair for mobility, and the main floor was perfectly accessible for him. The views are incredible and the setting is peaceful. Not far from Monticello and Shenandoah NP which were our 2 main destinations. Thanks so much for sharing your place and the hospitality!

Best kept secret
This was hands down my favorite place I've ever stayed. We were in Madison County for our wedding, and Doug could not have been any kore amazing or accommodating. The view is 10/10, and was absolutely the most perfect house to keep our dogs with us while we got married. The guests who did get to see the house said the same thing! We will absolutely be returning! Maybe even to go hiking for our 1 year anniversary.
