Getting Around:

Other Things to Note:
While we have added modern amenities, Rosegill is still a very old house and requires tender loving care. Please be prepared to treat the property with great respect.

Rosegill is a working agricultural farm (corn, wheat, soy), and thus you may see or hear farm machinery and crop dusting planes. Some farm work may take place early in the morning and involve noise. Please do not touch any farm equipment you see on the property.

All three fireplaces are either non-functioning or defective, and may not be used at any time.

The property has security cameras covering the driveways, parking areas, pool, grounds and exterior of the home. There are no interior cameras.

Specific Cliff Danger Warning – There is a grassy lawn extension from the Rosegill Main House to the Rappahannock River shoreline. It’s very natural and inviting to walk toward the River to get as close as possible. Please don’t get too close, it drops off with a 30’ high cliff down to the beach all along the riverfront. It is very steep and unstable. Winter storms erode the cliff and parts collapse from time to time. Unsupervised children should not go anywhere near the top of the cliff. Extra care must be taken there and with small children.

The Main House is not the only home at Rosegill. The East Cottage, 85' East of the Main House, is occupied by the property caretakers Megan and Riki (who are available to help you if needed and whose contact information is shared upon booking). We ask all residents and guests to give privacy to those in the other houses.

The barns and other outbuildings are not included in the rental. You are welcome to walk over to those buildings and look around the outside but please do not go inside and please do not touch any farm equipment.

The swimming pool is open May 15 – September 15. It is unheated. Use of the pool is reserved exclusively for those in the Main House during rentals.

To finalize bookings, we require execution of a Rental Agreement with house rules, which will be sent upon booking.
