We all had a wonderful stay at City Richmond Life! Although we did not use the area in the fenced-in backyard, it appears to be a wonderful hang out for all ages. A place to gather, relax, enjoy the ambience and all its amenities. The home is updated and modern yet very cozy and made us feel very welcome. Luke was very responsive with any questions we had. Would definitely stay again in the future!

Just as advertised! Luke was exceptionally responsive when we had questions, and the property was convenient to local restaurants and bars. We were only a 30 minute Uber ride from the wedding venue, and 10 minute from events the day before and after. Street parking was very accessible if you are in more than 1 car. The espresso machine was a bit of a learning curve, and there are easy instructions to follow. The house has plenty of towels and lovely upgrades inside and out. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful place!
Beautifully designed and upscale place! Stayed here for a weekend getaway with a group of friends. Enjoyed the small details, such as the fancy espresso machine with local coffee to try, toiletry items, guidebooks, etc. We also enjoyed sitting out back around the fire pit.
Convenient driving location to restaurants, breweries, parks. There was a little noise at night, but overall a great stay! The host is very responsive for any questions we had prior to and during our stay.

Perfect for our company retreat
We rented this for a company retreat as we are a virtual team and some of our team members live in Richmond, I flew in the remaining 3 and rented this VRBO. It exceeded our expectations. It was clean, beautifully decorated, had high end fixtures, and a great backyard patio area. Our host was proactive in reaching out to see if we needed anything and was responsive when we had a question. The internet was great - which was important for a work retreat. We will look to stay here again in the future.
