The bathrooms are completely upgraded with top of the line utilities, tiled showers, a jetted tub and a refinished claw foot tub that is original to the house. The interior of the home incorporates many original features including the river rock chimney in the kitchen and two chimneys, outside, the original floorboards on the wall of the living room, the oak staircase, the attic floorboards on the Great room shelving, trimming and kitchen island and the exposed ceiling trusses in the upstairs bedrooms. The exterior of the home features one of the historic hand built rock and steel bridges that used to extend across the Maury River and gives this part of the Shenandoah Valley its namesake - Rockbridge County. Everything we have done to this beloved home and property has been to provide contemporary comfort while also preserving her former aesthetic and charm. Between the extensive amount of amenities provided In the home, the river access with a canoe and kayaks and the picturesque location, it is our sincerest hope that our guests have everything they need to have an exceptional stay full of joy!

I needed a property that 5 of us who work online could meet together in person and plan together. 3 of the women were bringing their husbands. So, I needed a property with 5 bedrooms and a dining table seating at least eight. I chose this property and glad I did. The property is extremely clean; the owners are very responsive. The great room & kitchen are lovely with two tables — one which seats 10 for dining and another table which was perfect as a work table for us. The bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds. The only thing we would do different is have those who get up often at night sleep on the main level instead of upstairs. The bedrooms are in the original farmhouse section of the house and the wooden floors do creak. It would have been quieter at night if those with insomnia slept in one of the two bedrooms on the lower level. Oh well, next time! The kitchen is well stocked with nice pots, pans & bowls. We had everything we needed to cook all our meals easily. Truly, this is a lovely home in a beautiful location. Highly recommend.

The hospitality of the hosts was above and beyond. The house was very clean, very comfortable, and perfect for our family's gathering. I booked this house because of the table at which the entire family of 10 could sit together for meals. We are also very fond of older homes that have been remodeled for modern day use -- and this was inspiring!

The Maury River house was hands down the most well-equipped place we have ever stayed! We were in town for a family wedding but could have easily been fully entertained and never left the property. Our 4-year old granddaughter loved the toys in the kids room and the books. She wanted to explore the trunk of dress-up clothes on the porch but we just ran out of time. The shed had bikes and games a d kayaks. A canoe was available as well as plenty of life jackets. The rooms were sparkling clean. The kitchen had every single gadget I needed all weekend and even had a few things that helped tremendously when we hadnt made it to the grocery yet. We arrived a bit before normal check-in and were able to check in early thanks to wonderful hosts Lee and Ian who responded to my request almost immediately. The welcome upon our arrival was extraordinary! A large welcome basket filled with goodies, a hand-written note, fresh flowers, and a cute personalized message on the message board. The whole experience made us all feel like royalty and that our hosts were well pleased we were there (and not a burden). Thank you!

Maury River house family vacation

The Maury River house was a perfect place for our family of twelve’s summer vacation. Beautiful area and surroundings, numerous close accesses to the river, many excursions available in nearby Lexington and the house had all the possible amenities we needed. The hosts were extremely attentive to our every need.

It was a great stay. The house is clean and well stocked. We were there for a family wedding at the Irvine Estate and it was an easy drive. The house has a lot to offer unfortunately we weren’t able to take advantage of it as we were busy with wedding activities all weekend. We recommend this property.

Outstanding accommodations and hosting

Beautifully upgraded, nicely maintained, well supplied, great outdoor spaces. Plenty of beds and couches and really nice lavatory facilities. Hosts communicated quickly and had a ton of local info and history on site. Little touches and amenities were excellent. One of our group will likely bring his family to this choice. It was off-season for affordability, but what a sweet choice. Devil's Backbone food and brews was relatively close and good rating as well.

This home did not disappoint. We had everything we could possibly need. I loved the little signs around the home that explained different things. The welcome basket was a very nice touch. It was warm and cozy. There are just so many nice little touches you just need to rent this beautiful home and experience them for yourselves. Probably one of the best homes we have ever rented to be quite honest. Check it out you won't be disappointed.

Great house for a weekend horse show!

We stayed here with some members of our horseback riding team for an event at Virginia Horse Center. Just 15 minutes from the Virginia Horse Center, and a perfect spot to hang out with the team’s riders, parents, and trainers. The location was fantastic for kids! We had a fire pit, kayaked on the river, and had lots of fun! He house is very well appointed and the hosts were so hospitable!

Rustic Luxury

Lee and Ian’s house in Rockbridge Baths offers rustic luxury about 20 miles from Lexington. It is the perfect place to relax with friends and family. I highly recommend bringing food and cooking in, as the house is located off a windy road that can be challenging at night or in bad weather. The house is extremely well appointed with every convenience. Lee and Ian are gold standard hosts-hospitable, flexible and accommodating.
