"I truly enjoyed staying at this property. My friend and I were on a research trip and spent a lot of time on the front porch working. WiFi was very strong and the home was fully furnished with everything we needed. We were even invited to pick fresh strawberries in the garden! We both really enjoyed ourselves and agreed when we have to do one more trip in VA we’ll be staying here again."

"We spent 4 days at the house with my wife, mother-in-law, and daughters with their boyfriends. Everyone had a great time. House is very well stocked with everything we needed.

Everything was as advertised with an added surprise gift of freshly baked coffee cake and a lovely hand-illustrated welcome note! Paul and Colleen provided excellent directions and were prompt with communication. Unfortunately, we found this gem on our last visit to Blacksburg. If we ever find ourselves coming back I...

"It was a very nice, quiet place. Very clean, with everything we needed. There are lots of places for hiking and taking walks, or just sitting outside and enjoying nature. "

"This was the perfect place to stay to section hike the Appalachian Trail. The view was fabulous. We enjoyed sitting on the patio. The kitchen had everything we needed for 2 people. The host was very friendly and timely in her responses."

"The house was super clean and the grounds are just beautiful- way off the beaten path. The hosts were very communicative and helpful- we had a great stay!"
