“What a wonderful hidden gem! The outdoor space was my primary reason for choosing the Whindale Ranch and it did not disappoint! The hangout area was perfect for our family and it’s so tucked away with beautiful fields and greenery surrounding. Inside the house was well kept, spacious, and overall I was very happy!”

“This is our second stay and we have already booked the third. The house is so comfortable and the views of the farm and rolling hills are spectacular. The hosts are most gracious. So many thoughtful touches throughout the house. And the outdoor gazebo is the best outdoor space I have ever seen.”
“Our family had a great weekend retreat at Dana's place. Our hosts were friendly, the surroundings were beautiful and the covered outdoor fireplace seating area really stood out. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Madison/Culpeper area!”
“What a gem! The house is clean, comfortable, and roomy. And, the outdoor area can’t be beat. We enjoyed eating dinner on the back patio while watching the sunset and being serenaded by frogs. This place is perfect!”
“Five of us met, from Houston, Omaha, and Connecticut. We instantly felt at home and welcome. This home is spotless, fully stocked, and has enough indoor and outdoor spaces to keep any group busy for many days. We loved Torbin and his cows! Thanks for a long weekend we'll always remember!”
“Beautiful setting and very private. We enjoyed watching the horse from the front porch with our morning coffee. The house is well equipped and has great outdoor spaces.”
