Plume

Plume in Afton: Modern Luxury for Groups in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Just off a quiet country road, surrounded by rolling farmland and sweeping views of the Blue Ridge, Plume is a modern, light-filled retreat created for gathering, relaxing, and reconnecting. Located 30 minutes from Charlottesville, 15 minutes from Crozet, and only minutes from Route 151’s most beloved wineries, breweries, and cideries, it’s the perfect home base for a family celebration, milestone birthday, or girls’ weekend.

With room for up to 11 guests, the house features five bedrooms, six beds, and three full baths—including a master suite so tranquil it feels like a spa escape. The main living area is bright and open, framed by long-range mountain views from nearly every window. A chef’s kitchen with a scullery, beverage fridge, and wine fridge makes entertaining effortless, while a mudroom with laundry keeps the practical details covered.

But the true showstopper is the primary bath: a velvety-smooth stone soaking tub anchors a luxurious wet room with an open shower—and best of all, it offers unobstructed views of the Blue Ridge Mountains while you unwind. Outdoors, you’ll find a hot tub and firepit for evenings under the stars, Dark Sky–compliant lighting for stargazing, and thoughtful touches like a Level 2 EV charger. Families will also appreciate the children’s play dome, mud kitchen, and whimsical airplane seesaw.

Though peaceful and private, Plume is just minutes from Central Virginia’s finest experiences. Savor wine at Veritas, Afton Mountain, Pippin Hill, and King Family Vineyards, explore Shenandoah National Park and Humpback Rock, or head to Wintergreen Resort in the colder months for skiing and snowboarding.

As a guest of Plume, you’ll also enjoy complimentary access to Blue Ridge Concierge, your personal guide to the region. From wine tours and private chefs to yoga, massage, and pre-stocked kitchens, every detail of your stay can be customized to make it seamless and unforgettable.
