Riverview Suite
Perched on the highest point of Belle Meade Farm, the Riverview Suite sits above rolling pastures with sweeping views of the James River Valley. At 1,200 square feet, it's a completely private second-floor retreat — the character of a working Virginia farm with the comfort of a boutique hotel.
The living room has an electric fireplace, two plush couches, a large smart TV, and warm farmhouse decor. The kitchen is fully equipped for real meals — or simply setting out the complimentary coffee, tea, and welcome snacks Pam leaves for every arrival. Two queen bedrooms with Casper mattresses sleep four comfortably, plus a queen sleeper sofa for two more.
Step outside to a dedicated backyard patio with furniture and a fire pit — yours alone, with nothing between you and the pastures. Corn hole, board games, and lawn chairs are all provided. In-suite washer/dryer, private entrance, fast wifi (105 Mbps), and a dedicated workspace mean you can stay as long as you like.
The farm is yours to explore. Follow the walking trail to the stocked fishing pond (catch and release). Drive or bike the gravel road a half mile to our private James River entrance. Meet Abby, Lucy, and Sweetie — the three farm dogs who love visitors — and Angel, the white cat who holds court in the driveway. In season, the James River Batteau Company hosts farm-to-batteau dinners at our river landing, just steps from where you'll park.
