Our family had a wonderful time at The White Elephant Inn and would absolutely stay there again. It was clean, spacious, and the pool was such a hit with the kids!
We have stayed at the White Elephant several times and keep coming back because it is a great house. The pool is spectacular and the amenities are excellent. The house is also conveniently located and accessible to pretty much everything in Charlottesville.
We had a wonderful stay! House was clean and accommodating. The pool and pool house were fabulous. Owners were on site but did not invade our privacy at all. Highly recommend.
Plenty of room for our family & friend group to gather together without being on top of each other. Beds & pillows were comfy, kitchen was well stocked, pool setting was stunning, & communication with hosts was fantastic! The location is terrific…we stayed for UVA graduation week and the proximity to campus, restaurants & grocery stores was wonderful! Truly a gem of a property!

Wow! A must stay for the entire family!!
My family had the absolute pleasure of staying in this amazing home. The space was more than enough to accommodate our large group. One of the best features for me was the pool house kitchen that made hanging out even better as no one was "stuck" in the kitchen away from all the fun. The pool was perfect and so refreshing after a hot day exploring Charlottesville proper. The owners are one in a million and will answer all your questions. A true gem and we will definitely be returning!
A tropical Paradise in the middle of Charlottesville, close to everything yet very tranquil. Wonderful bedrooms and discrete work areas on the inside accentuate the unbelievable pool area and pavilion behind. Beautifully well done, and not adequately depicted in pictures. It’s a near perfect getaway venue. Amazing hosts were always available and nothing went undone or wanting. Very responsive and cordial.
We had a wonderful stay at The White Elephant Inn! The house was charming, with so many interesting details that made our experience both enjoyable and comfortable. It was well-equipped and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. One of the standout features was that each room had its own private bathroom, which made it incredibly convenient for everyone.The only thing that caught us off guard was discovering that the owner lives in a separate unit attached to the house. However, this wasn’t an issue at all, as they were very respectful of our space and kept to themselves. That said, we did feel the need to be a bit quieter coming back after a night out, as the owner's unit is located in the basement.The house itself was clean, functional, and ideal for our needs. The only small suggestion I have is that one of the main bedrooms was missing a flat sheet and pillowcases on the pillows, which may have been a small oversight. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would absolutely stay here again, especially in the summer when we could take advantage of the pool!
Our best and wholehearted recommendation! We spent a week to remember at The White Elephant, with family and friends who came for the wedding of our son in Charlottesville. There were 13 of us staying at The White Elephant, and four others were in a nearby hotel, but spent much of the daytime here. We were all impressed by the beauty, elegance and practicality of this place, secluded on a gentle slope in a woody area. The rooms and kitchens are big, the decks too, all nicely furnished. The swimming pool and the area around it are spectacular; it was a kids’ paradise and a great party place. The day before the wedding we organized a rehearsal dinner there for 70 guests and it was a big success. The owners, Bill and Katie, were kind and discreet, always ready to answer our calls. They not only tolerated our throwing a big party, but provided a lot of real help. We all left the place thinking how fortunate we were; it was much beyond our expectations.

Fall family weekend at the White Elephant Inn
We had a wonderful weekend with our kids and grandkids. The White Elephant Inn was spotless, beautifully appointed, and incredibly comfortable - especially the beds! It’s clear the home is well loved and thoughtfully maintained by gracious hosts.
Great house that is in great condition, very well furnished and has comfortable beds. Great layout for a group getting together. Outdoor area looks awesome, wished it was a little bit warmer during our stay and we would’ve taken advantage of it.My only suggestion to the owners would be to include some coffee. Otherwise, really fantastic place that we will come back to.
The White Elephant was excellent! It was such a nice place for a large group. We were in town for a wedding and had plenty of room for everyone. The beds and linens were very nice, and the home was perfectly cleaned. In a quiet neighborhood just north of downtown. I would not hesitate at all to book this place again!Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Excellent, loved every minute of our stay. Such a fantastic house and pool area

Fun Family Reunion
It was a wonderful experience. The house was just right for us and the weather was perfect.Everybody enjoyed the space and also the pool area, where we all could enjoy each other's company.Restaurants and places to walk and hike are close by.
Great meeting spot for family meeting from across the country. House was beautiful and very well located to all Charlottesville points of interest. Owners were great to work with. Would definitely stay here again.
So relaxing to be able to throw a cookout and enjoy the pool and hot tub and each other’s company here! Fully stocked cookware and dinnerware. Didn’t have to bring a thing other than the ingredients! Every guest loved their room and the house was even more than we could hope for.

Great house and pool for a group
Pool area is perfect. We had several families with lots of kids and everyone had a blast. Gorgeous large pool with great pool house with full kitchen and outdoor grill and lots of seating. Really a great place to stay. We would definitely go back.
Our family gathered to celebrate Mom’s 90th birthday! This home felt like a treehouse, nestled among beautiful foliage, which made it both private and serene. The owner was wonderful—always responsive and quick to answer any questions we had. The pool and hot tub were a huge hit with everyone, and the house easily accommodated five families. A truly memorable stay that made a very special occasion even more perfect. The furnishings are lovely and the kitchen is stocked with all the appliances needed. My parents live just up the road and Mom said more than once - I can’t believe this beautiful place is right in our area. Definitely recommend - ⸻

White Elephant Inn
My family is very experienced staying at large private rentals. They all agreed that the White Elephant Inn was the best house that we had rented. The architects that designed it must have had fun, and the layout was very imaginative. The children enjoyed the infinity pool, and the large kitchen was ideal for community cooking. Two dining areas allowed for comfortably seating 14 for prolonged feasts. The furniture and decorative arts made the interior of the home very welcoming. The location was only minutes away from down town Charlottesville. We would be happy to go back if we were headed to Charlottesville.Thanks to the Daggetts for sharing their lovely house.
