Further details for this vacation farmhouse rental in Williamsburg, Virginia

Burlington History: In a setting on Historic Route 5 surrounded by such grand southern plantations as Sherwood Forest, Berkeley, and Westover, Burlington Plantation is an example of a simple farmhouse of the era. The east wing of Burlington farmhouse dates back to 1770 and a west wing was added in 1840 with the kind help of the neighbor at Sherwood Forest, President John Tyler. It then went on to become home to John Mumford Gregory, who served as governor of Virginia in the mid 1800's. Many owners and interesting stories later, the current owners purchased the farm in 2002 with the intention of returning it to is former glory.

Burlington Now: The original house has four rooms (each with fireplaces) and an upper and lower passage. Discreetly hidden electricity, heat and air conditioning, provide the visitors with a real 18th century living experience. A glass hyphen connects the old house to the farmhouse addition which contains all of the amenities of modern life. Having been open for public viewing, the house and the farm have been very well received as an authentic restoration. The actual restoration took place over the past 4 years and was conducted under the guidance of the historic architects, archaeologists and resource folks of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. The farmhouse area is surrounded by farmland where wheat, soy and corn grow throughout the year. The landscape that immediately surrounds the farmhouse contains the newly planted orchards, vineyard, kitchen garden, and various flower gardens that are composed of specimens that would have been present in colonial times.

The Dependencies: There are many points of interest on this property. The oldest building is a smoke house which date back to 1740; it has been carefully restored and still has the aroma of the salted pork that hung in it 200 years ago. The ice house is a circular brick subterranean structure extending down 15 feet. Historic documents note that ice that was stored in this ice house lasted through late fall each year...it is a marvel. Above the ice house sits what now is a potting shed, but once served as a Doctor's office many years ago. The barn is a reproduction of an 18th century structure, and the pump house, also a historic recreation, contains the pump that delivers fresh and delicious well water to the farmhouse.

Best So Far

Bill90125 Paso Robles, CA
Review Submitted: May 10, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
The best vacation rental we've experienced, and we've rented a lot of places around the country. Unbelievable house, gracious and friendly owner and great surroundings. I did not want to leave. I could have died there. Downside: about a half hour from anything, but I considered that an upside as well. You will not regret staying in this house if historical surroundings and tranquility are your goal.

Burlington Plantation

The Clan Saline, Michigan 48176
Review Submitted: April 8, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
My family had a wonderful time at Burlington! It enhanced our experience as we visited Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown. My three daughters were able to practice the piano with the grand piano that was at the house. The grounds arond the home were beautiful. We were able to see deer on the property at dusk and there were many birds as well. The accomidations were wondereful. The only regret that I had was that we were not able to explore much in the area directly aorund the home. in the future, I would set aside time to explore the many pantations in the area. I would hioghly reccomend this place to anyone.
