The pictures and description are 100% accurate! What they don’t capture is how peaceful the space is surrounded by trees. The location felt so private but was only a few minutes from downtown Blacksburg. We will definitely stay here again!!

The house was extremely impressive. Clean, comfortable, has everything you need and the modern finishes make this a cozy stay. The deck is awesome and the grill is easy to use. Tucked away in the woods where i could get peace and quiet, yet only 10 mins from downtown blacksburg.

This rental is ideally situated for a visit to Blacksburg/Va Tech. It’s only a 10 minute drive to downtown but the house is in a quiet, rural area. It’s spacious with plenty of room to spread out and relax. The Smart TV is a nice amenity. The covered deck with comfortable seating and gas grill is inviting, we enjoyed daily visits from a family of deer. We didn’t cook much, but the kitchen has everything needed for simple meals, minus a toaster. Dish detergent, hand soap, coffee filters and laundry detergent are provided. Communication with the owner was timely and pleasant. I do wish the house was equipped with more throw blankets for the living room and some extra bed linens for those who sleep cold, but this is a minor quibble. We will be back!

Beautiful cabin
Absolutely beautiful cabin for a couple or solo guest. Quiet and peaceful location with great views and wild life to watch. Very comfortable king bed, living area and two person table. Bring your favorite food, snacks and drinks to stock up the full size fridge. It’s about 3 miles to downtown and even though we had a car we chose to Uber to events in town. Uber was 12-14 each way with no issues getting picked up. The host, Ryan, is a very good communicator and let us slide our stay one day on short notice due to bad weather. We’ll definitely be staying here again. Jeff and Anna

Unexpected, Despite Reviews
This place has killer reviews, and despite those, I still didn't expect it to be as special as it is.
It's clear that Ryan took great care in creating this space, and takes great care of it. He should be proud of it. I've rented a lot of places over the past 25 years, and this one's easily in the top few.

Are You Kidding Me?!!
This hideaway is absolutely perfect for a getaway! I loved the design and feel of this property…think Smokey Mountains meets modern apartment! It’s pretty much brand new so everything was perfect…bed was comfortable, shower was amazing, full of sunshine and we sat on the deck and watched a mama deer and her two babies In the morning. You’re 5 minutes from downtown Blacksburg but feel you’re ’away from it all”. Ryan was great to work with - I couldn’t recommend this property more!
