The Cottage at Still Pond Farm – Horse Farm Near Charlottesville & Shenandoah

Nestled in the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Still Pond Farm is located close to the Swift Run Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park, Charlottesville, UVA and Virginia’s wine country. Our peaceful countryside farm offers ever-changing mountain vistas, wooded trails, and a calming rural escape. Still Pond was designed by renowned landscape architects Wolfgang Oehme and James van Sweden to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Whether it’s sunrise, sunset, or a misty morning, the landscape offers breathtaking views in every season. Wildlife can be seen and heard all around the farm, and the sky—whether filled with stars or a glowing moon—is always spectacular. It’s an ideal setting for birdwatching, wildlife observation, stargazing, or simply soaking in the serenity of peace and quiet. Our cozy two-story cottage with a loft and wraparound porch is comfortably furnished for a relaxing getaway. Located near the horse stables, the cottage offers easy parking and views of the barn, paddocks, 60-foot round pen, and natural pond. A wooded border behind the cottage adds privacy and a sense of peaceful seclusion—perfect for nature lovers and stargazers alike. In the evenings, guests can gather around the outdoor firepit to enjoy the fresh mountain air and quiet country skies. Come experience the quiet beauty and tranquility of life on the farm.
