About this house rental

Baldwin Farm is located in the central Shenandoah Valley, the house is a three-bedroom, two-bath modern country home framed with a large sitting porch looking out on the Alleghany mountains. It is the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle.

The mattresses are brand new pillowtops with all new bedding so you can have a comfortable, restful sleep.
Pastoral setting. Outside Middlebrook, VA, the house is the center of a working farm. The property sits in a natural bowl with progressively rising hills culminating in the foothills of the nearby mountains. Mark the passage of time as the light descends the slopes in the morning and ascends later and finally gives way to the starry night after the sunset.
Contemplative. Sitting off a country road, quiet solitude with some country noise should be expected at Baldwin Farm. Get out, walk around the farm, and experience a simple, slower pace. Watch the cattle graze while looking out over pastureland framed by the mountains. On clear nights, enjoy a view of the starry night sky that one can only get in a relatively light free environment.
Meditative atmosphere. Sit on the large covered porch and listen to the wind chimes or gaze out the large picture window in the living room while contemplating the foothills of the Alleghany mountains, verdant in the spring and summertime, cloaked in color in the fall.

Amazing location and views. Lovely property and wonderful hosts!
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
This was beautiful place! It was perfect for my family. The location is remote but we loved the cows and birds. The view made for a phenomenal sunset.The only drawback was the check-in communication. It took almost 24 hours for a response. They ask for a face to face for a key and I attempted to simplify that. It all worked out and they were greats hosts but that element caused some anxiety.

We had a wonderful stay. This is our second year here. It is a very peaceful location, a large, comfortable house with a fenced-in yard. Very pet-friendly.
