“Best food in the entire County”

Dinners at Prospect Hill have been the best food in the entire Charlottesville area. The atmosphere is delightful, romantic and special, and the food is six stars.

“Wonderful B & B !!!”

Steve C

Potomac, MD

1/8/2010

I couldn't disagree more with the prior review. We've stayed at B&B's around the country and in numerous other countries around the world. Prospect Hill is clearly the nicest, most enjoyable and relaxing one we've ever experienced. We've stayed there maybe 8-10 times over the years. The Sheehans have been marvelously caring hosts. We've always stayed in the cabins. Each is furnished differently from every other one. All have luxurious beds, fireplaces with plenty of wood, double jacuzzi, breakfast served in the cabin, stereo, ... They have never been anything but spotlessly clean and maintained. Dinner in the main house has always been wonderful. They even prepared an excellent meal one evening when the entire area lost power. The complementary wine before dinner was a nice chance to meet other guests. The grounds are beautifully maintained, there has never been any feeling other than total security there. If you want a night or a few nights away for a special romantic occasion, you would have a hard time beating Prospect Hill.

BOTTOM LINE: I would stay here again.

“Bad Choice”

We visited Prospect Hill this past year. We were extremely disappointed. The room only locked from the inside. Our bath tub was never cleaned while we were there. Our room was never vaccumed while we were there. The grounds were sorely neglected as well as the inn itself.

Management Response

I wish this guest had addressed this complaint to us directly since we are mortified that this ever happened and would have refunded his money or given him a free future visit as our apology. We realize mistakes happen sometimes and we strive to correct them immediately and always attempt to make up for our mistakes when they occur, although preferably not in this way. We are located in the country on 50 acres of grounds that may appear drab in winter but with three full time maintenance staff and a gardener we try to keep the property as pristine as possible since we have guests year round. We have operated Prospect Hill for more than 33 years and never had a problem with our 1 inch deadbolts not giving complete security for our guests. Occasionally a guest will want a key for when they leave for the day and we will provide them with one but this hampers our housekeepers from cleaning their room which we do daily. I am shocked that this guest said his room was not cleaned according to his complaint since we have many, many happy guests who rate us five stars and leave extremely happy. As a family owned and operated inn since 1977 we are very meticulous about cleanliness and are regularly inspected by Select Registry, The VA B&B Assn, (formerly 4 diamonds by AAA) and Mobile and have always received high marks for cleanliness and fastidious grounds. We encourage guest comments by putting a comment card prominently in every room which asks,"Can you help us by telling us if something is amiss....... If this was my inn I would......." By our openly soliciting such criticism we receive many suggestions and ideas for improvement and we reply to every guest telling them what we changed and thanking them for their help. I am so sorry this happened and sorrier still that we could not correct this situation promptly when it occurred. Bill Sheehan Prospect Hill Plantation Inn & Restaurant
