I rent VRBOs quite often. This property is by far one of the nicest I’ve stayed in. The location is perfect. The rooms, space, amenities, decor, and all the little details provided a warm, comfortable and inviting stay.

This is the perfect location for a visit to Staunton! You are walking distance to everything from great restaurants and shops to Mary Baldwin to the Woodrow Wilson Library. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen well appointed. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the upstairs porch. It was a perfect weekend!

Lovely apartment, perfect location.

Very nice accommodations, located just steps away from the heart of the shopping and dining of Staunton. Lovely porch view, and plenty of space to feel at home.

The Overlook is a great place to stay in Staunton--the location couldn't be better, less than a block from all the shops, yet a nice quiet location. The unit is well appointed and includes everything one might need and was very clean. For me the best feature was the front porch; a delightful place to sit and relax overlooking the town and hills beyond, private and peaceful.

We truly loved our stay in Staunton! The location couldn’t have been more convenient — we could easily walk into downtown, and it was also just a short drive to beautiful hikes and wonderful wineries.What really stood out to us were all the thoughtful little touches throughout the place. Having coffee and tea, a few spices, cleaning supplies, and some basic essentials waiting for us was such a treat. Those little things made us feel so welcomed and made settling in incredibly easy — something we’ve found isn’t always the case with vacation rentals/stays.And one of our favorite parts of the stay was simply sitting out on the porch in the early morning, enjoying our coffee and watching the town slowly wake up. It was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly the kind of moment that makes a getaway special.We had such a lovely time and would absolutely come back. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Perfect location for our needs

Although not much time was spent at the property except to sleep since my husband was visiting his son that lives 1/2 mile away, it was a pleasant and clean apartment. Would definitely consider staying here again for the next trip.

I am so happy with the choice we made to stay in The Overlook

The place was amazing. Well stocked, super clean, comfortable. It was right around the corner from the theater (one reason we were in town), Woodrow Wilson museum, and shops and eateries. Parking was convenient and we loved sitting on the porch with the gas fire pit.
