The caretakers Megan and Riki reside in the house to East (right side when facing house), another family resides in the house to the left. Megan and Riki are available to help guests during their stay.
Getting Around:
A car is necessary. You may also want to rent a golf cart for exploring the expansive property. More information available upon booking.
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.

Heads up! Jellyfish have been spotted around the docks at this time of year, so please use extra caution when swimming or wading in the water. We also recommend wearing water shoes for added protection. Stay safe and enjoy the water!
Interaction with Guests:
We are available to help make your visit to Rosegill special. Our caretakers Megan and Riki are just a phone call away and live next door. They are ready to assist with anything you might need during your stay, and will move kayaks and canoes to the lakes or river at your request.

Summary: All members of the family loved this house. There was something for everyone. We all love to be outside. There was swimming, hiking, fishing, bicycling, and kayaking. We also toured Williamsburg and Jamestown, so there is so much to do. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. We only wish that we had planned on more days to stay.
