The space
2 story family primary home with 4-5 bedrooms, 2.5 bath rooms, open floor plan perfect for entertaining and relaxing
There are 4 bedrooms in the upstairs.. the master has a queen bed with adjustable base and an attached full bathroom with walk in shower. There is the youngests room with the loft bed, I have recently removed the slide, but it can be added back on very easily. The next room is my teenage sons room with a queen bed and then there is my teenage daughters room that has a twin day bed with another twin trundle under it. And there is a full hallway bathroom with jetted bathtub. Downstairs there is a den with doors so it can be used as a 5th bedroom, it has a futon. This is the room with the fireplace. Also, my living room sofa can easily sleep 2 adults or even more little ones, its big and super comfy! There is a half bath downstairs.
Notes
I usually travel with my 3 children, but sometimes with just 1 of them at a time.. we like to do special 1 on 1 trips every couple years. Sometimes I travel with my long time partner and our blended family which is 2 adults and 5 kids (ages 8-17) if we can all find the time, usually that be holiday or summer trips. Sometimes I travel alone or with friends. And finally if possible I always prefer to bring my most well behaved child, the dog. He’s a 6 year old Pomeranian and is a very good boy, zero risk of him messing up anything in your home. Also, while he isn’t a no-shed dog, he won’t leave fur on your furniture either.. rather his fur comes out in clumps that I can just pick up and that is typically only seasonal. But bringing him along isn’t necessary or a deal breaker for me and hopefully won’t deter anyone from an exchange at my place either. I have trusted sitters that he as well as my cat can stay with if someone prefers not to have my pets in the home when they visit.

We did a 10 day exchange with Ashley's family over Thanksgiving. We had the best time. Ashley's home was the perfect size for our family of 5. Since we both drove and both have dogs, we were able to bring our dog with us and she brought hers to our home. The home had everything we needed and was very clean and in great condition. Ashley shared all her favorite spots with us and made us feel so welcomed. My kids are history and military lovers, so we spent our days exploring all the military museums in the area and even got to go on a battleship and take a boat tour of the navy shipyard. We went to Busch Gardens, found fossils and shark teeth and got to see the magical lights at the botanical gardens. Every day after our adventure, we'd come home for family dinners in Ashley's beautiful kitchen and then snuggled on her coach for movie nights. Ashley's home was so cozy and we felt so at home. We are so thankful for this group and this opportunity to explore Virginia. Thank you Ashley for sharing your home with us!
