Haywood House | Old Rag View Horse Farm with Log Lodge and Treehouse

6 Bedroom House in Haywood, Madison

Chestnut Oak Farm is a luxurious western-style lodge retreat on a 90 acre horse farm near the base of Old Rag Mountain. The lodge was constructed in 2009 using granite blocks from the farm and huge Virginia pine logs in a western style of rustic elegance. The lodge is surrounded by decks and porches to take in the magnificent view over Hidden Valley, Old Rag Mountain, the farm's twin ponds, and the horses grazing in the fields. The lodge is equipped with a Chef's Kitchen, huge dining room (we have seated sixteen), double-sided fireplace, baby grand piano, screened porch, and covered porch. The main lodge house has three Master Bedrooms, and two other large bedrooms with a shared bath. Downstairs is a walkout game room with foosball, ping pong, bar, and a fire pit/movie pit with 52" screen TV. The outdoor 8 person hot tub is steps away, overlooking the pond.
150 feet down the hill below the pond is the 'Guest' Treehouse. The treehouse is a cedar sided two level cabin-style house which sleeps six, with full bath and kitchen--and an optional fire pole exit for the adventurous. This treetop aerie has to be seen to be believed!
The farm has a small herd of horses and one alpaca, Mike. We have hiking trails on the property. A fantastic network of both gravel and paved roads fans out from the farm for incredible short and long distanced cycling routes. Or you can leave the farm to hike the incredible local trails or fish the local streams, or visit some of the local wineries or organic farms. We are 35 miles from Charlottesville, and 82 miles from Washington DC.
Caretakers live onsite and can help out with questions, firewood, directions, and even with provisioning if desired. They are happy to arrange spectacular custom-guided trail rides from a local stable in the surrounding mountains--even overnight camping trips.

Summary: Lovely relaxing week. We were able to host close friends and family all week as well as to have a beautiful outdoor groom's dinner. The caretakers were so friendly and helpful leading up to our stay and throughout our time there!!

Summary: This was a great spot for a college reunion of 10 guys. We jump around from year to year, but are planning to come back here. We were all amazed at the construction of the main house and it's giant pine logs. (Suggestion: hire a professional photographer to represent the place better on this site.) We had plenty of space in the main house, but also used the tree house which was great as well. The kitchen had everything we needed and was spacious. The fireplaces got used a bunch, but did take some work to avoid smoke escaping. The grounds and views are amazing. We took a hike straight from the property, used the hot tub, played lawn and game room games. We did not have good communication with owner until right before we arrived, but were given a generously early check-in upon request (probably dependent on the place being vacant before one's stay). Points others have mentioned like the stink bugs and lack of curtains are issues, but not deal-breakers. Also, the check-out clean-up expectations were more comprehensive and time-consuming than other places we've stayed considering the 250 clean-up fee. Regardless, the plusses definitely outweigh any minuses at this place.

Summary: Our family group of 10 has come several times in the winter. Beautiful house and location. The great room with huge fireplace and view of the Blue Ridge is perfect for hanging out in the winder, and the big and well-equipped kitchen is excellent for big family dinners.This time, a big winder storm presented some winter challenges, and the host did a great job of making things right.

Summary: We had 3 couples staying for a trip to the area to dine at 3 Blacksmiths. The house was HUGE and fully stocked with everything you could need. The caretakers answered all of our questions and were very helpful during our stay. We enjoyed the ping pong table, fire pits and hot tub. We are already discussing booking another trip with our kids!

Summary: What a great spot to get away. Orchards are nearby and the view is phenomenal. Property overall is amazing and everyone was in love with the house and grounds. Richard is extremely responsive and a great owner.

Summary: The home is spacious and the views are very nice. It is "out there", i.e. some distance from anything.
Judith G. Sep 24, 2024 08:47:04 AM
Summary: 5th stay, just love this place!
Clare P. Sep 23, 2024 09:12:34 PM
Summary: As always, this place is a perfect gettaway for our team! The space is perfect for a team our size. We love the kitchen, view from the porch the separate tree house for extra room! Thank you!

Summary: We had a great time at the house, all family members enjoyed the stay. The morning view was so impressive from the deck but the evening sunset was even better! Getting there was everything we expected as the host gave great instructions and let you know what to expect. Check in was very easy as well. The host is very nice and informative about everything. The caretakers were absolutely fantastic, any question we had they were happy to help. They gave us great advice on the area and spent some time telling us about the horses. The area is really nice too, a lot of local produce. We would absolutely recommend this home and hopefully we will get back here at some point.

Summary: Our extended family - and our Golden Retriever - had a great stay on this picturesque 90-acre horse farm with stunning views. The house is amazing - 3 ensuites, 1 bedroom with a bath that doubles as a hall bath, a large “group” bedroom with 3 beds - plus a separate tree house with full bath that also sleeps six to eight people. This property ideal for large groups. The well-appointed kitchen with double ovens, double dishwashers and huge space is a gourmand’s delight. The home also has a washer and dryer for guest use as well as a drip coffee maker and a Keurig - all the comforts of home. The lodge offers an oasis from the world - but still provides reasonably good WiFi - that really does make for a perfect get-away. Everything you need is provided, and there is a reasonably good Food Lion 20 minutes away as well as a farmers market (Yodlers) just across from the Food Lion that will set you up nicely for all the provisions you might need. This was our second stay and we will definitely be making this place a regular family vacation spot.
