The space
Daniel Cottage is private, modern & comfortable with everything you need for a great stay. Comfortable furniture, full kitchen, modern bath, washer/dryer, and more. Internet is LTE but works great for TV and Zoom. For TV, there’s Netflix, Prime, HBO, Disney+ and other log-ins on the smart TV. While broadband isn’t yet available we find that computer, music, Zoom, and tv speeds are just fine.

According to our guests, the two queen beds are very comfortable and the entire cabin is efficient, spacious, and designed to ensure that we'd be comfortable there ourselves. We know you'll love it. There is also a workspace with WiFi, desk, desk chair, and area lighting.

If Daniel Cottage is unavailable, please check out AirBNB for “Dinwiddie Couples Getaway- Wells Cabin @WeldanPond” for a one bedroom alternative. These two guest houses are over 100 yards apart and there’s plenty of space for all.

Guest access
Guests can access all 75 acres of pond, meadow, and forest. There are no other buildings accessible because everything you need is in your Cottage.

From the host

Dinwiddie County is very rural and that’s one of the things our guests love about being here. Still there’s lots to do on site and off. For Civil War buffs, we’re just minutes from Pamplin Park, Petersburg Battlefield Park at Five Forks, 15 minutes from Petersburg, and under 40 minutes from downtown Richmond. There's great fishing on one of our two ponds and great opportunities to Relax, Create, Connect, and Discover a wonderful rural world, and the simple but stunning beauty around us here.

Where I went to school: Jackson: UVA and VCU; Beverly: Longwood
Lives in Dinwiddie, Virginia
I'm a retired CEO from a mid-sized distribution company and my wife has done an amazing job of raising our best friends - our two adult daughters. I retired in mid-2016 and retirement has been wonderful but its been even better since our purchase and renovation of Weldan Pond. The property was Beverly's grandparent's and parent's place but had fallen into serious disrepair. Now we're enjoying it and inviting you to enjoy it, too. We've traveled in the US and Europe extensively but we've fallen in love with the country life as well. We'd love to show you around.
