It was a pleasure hosting you!! Thank you for taking such good care of our home! We hope to host you again soon!
Everything about our stay was great! The location is perfect for getting to VT quickly and the house is new. It felt like a home away from home. The owners were so nice and easy to contact if we needed anything. All the little touches made our stay relaxing and fun. The kids loved the screened in porch and the big backyard.

Truly great stay. Everything on point. Super kind and proactive owner. Home is new and very well thought out. Great activities including darts, corn hole, table tennis, etc. By far the best VRBO stay yet. Thank you, Christy!
Great house! Interior is nicely decorated and has all the comforts and amenities on all 3 floors. Screened porch with ping pong, darts, fireplace and large TV was a favorite. Nice yard with patio and fire pit and plenty of parking with 2 driveways. Christy is a great host and communication is easy. We got lots of compliments on the house and have already started talking about renting it again next year.

Beautiful, newer home with every amenity you would ever need, PLUS! We were there on a football weekend with a 10-15 minute walk to stadium. Screened porch with ping pong, darts, cornhole, TV, fireplace and outdoor heaters. Outdoor firepit. Property manager has great communication and goes out of her way for your comfort. Absolute 5 star and looking forward to staying again:)

Thank you for this glowing review!!! We’re so glad our home worked so well for your travels!! Thank you for taking such good care of our home!! It will be a pleasure to host you again in the future!!
The home and our weekend was absolutely perfect. Christy, our host, thought of everything to make our weekend ideal. The house was immaculately clean upon our arrival and she quickly responded to any questions we had during our stay. The screened porch and the firepit were wonderful. We lived out there when we weren’t at graduation activities. Also, more bonuses, Christy provided plenty of towels, great sheets and a fully stocked kitchen! Definitely a first class VRBO!

We’re so glad our home helped your family to have such a good time celebrating your graduate!!! Thank you for leaving our home in such great shape!! We look for to hosting you again!!
This house was amazing and the host was incredible. We spent the Easter holiday weekend in Blacksburg visiting with our Hokie and this property was perfect. It has all the amenities you could ever want and the location is perfect. My hokie believes it may be the nicest house in Blacksburg. Descriptions and pictures are just as they say. It is a short walk to the grocery store and a 10-15 minute walk to Lane Stadium or Main street. Christy was a pleasure to deal with and was always attentive to any questions we had. I would highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Blacksburg. We definitely plan on staying here again.
