Was a very nice and clean property. Aside from a little road noise, host was easy to work with and the rooms all had a nice feel to them. Will definitely book again!!

Everything about the stay was first rate.
A few sharp knives in the kitchen would help, but that is a minor issue.

My daughter and I stayed here for two nights while she was attending a sports camp at Va Tech. Nicely remodeled, quaint cabin less than 10 minutes from campus. Would totally rent again if/when we return to Blacksburg.

My family and I were here for a swimming event and I was grateful this cute little cottage had my top necessities; a kitchen well supplied and a laundry room. Thank you for making our stay so cozy and we look forward to rebooking every time we are in Blacksburg.

Great cottage just at the edge of Blacksburg; close to everything but quiet. Great fire pit. Comfortable. Exactly what we needed for the weekend.

We arrived late on a Saturday night only to find we had the wrong lockbox code. We called and texted, and reached a nice young lady who immediately came to our rescue.
The tiny house (500 sq ft) was lovely, and well maintained.
It was just enough for a pleasant trip.
