The beautiful mountains, the cattle close by, the tremendous views were all quiet gifts for our souls! The home was beautifully appointed: the antique furniture a must see; the updated bathrooms,spacious kitchen: it was wonderful. We did not have a pack and play as listed when we arrived late at night. The host, however, was on it and went above and beyond making it right. We even used the antique high chair for our little 7 month old.It’s a lovely place for respite and relaxation. Lexington a short distance away was a treasure to explore even in the pouring rain.I wholeheartedly recommend Buds Place. It’s charming and homey in an updated modernized farm house.

The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked. The notebook left for visitors was concise and well planned. The location was peaceful and the wide-open night sky was thrilling for those of us not used to dark skies. (Although we did not see the playground that was mentioned, our 5 and 11 year old kids loved the home and wanted to stay longer).

It did not disappoint. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we would need to cook and feel at home. The beds were actually comfortable which is usually not true in our experience. The number of rooms with the bunks for the kids fit us exactly and we were very at home. We loved the cows and the farm across the street that we could shop eggs and cheese and butter from the farm shop. Overall clean And nice experience. 5 stars.! ##### Bethany C.

Walking inside I could smell the house was clean without any chemicals attached. Being someone who is sensitive to smells, I was relieved. As I walked from room to room I instantly fell in love with the house. I could have left everything behind and just moved in. The house instructions were easy to follow. It was nice to have a list of places to go and attend listed in the back. We went to a local pizza joint “Franks”!! Amazing food, hospitality and company!! Not a single complaint from anyone! We could only stay for a few days but I wish I could have stayed forever. We will definitely be back in the future and ready to explore the area and enjoy the sunrise and the cozy comfort of this home. ##### Douglas S. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michele D. Jan 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful place for a reunion with our adult kids and pups We traveled X-country from TX to meet up with our adult daughter & her partner, who traveled down from NJ, and we decided that western Virginia was a good place to hold our reunion just before Christmas. We were lucky to find Bud's Place. It is a lovely home, nicely decorated for Christmas, & there were plenty of spaces for us to be together to eat, play, or hang out, as well as places for us to retreat to for some privacy or work. Since the weather was so cold while we were there, we hung around the house more than we expected to, but it was very pleasant to do so. The beds are very comfortable; the home is very well-equipped with anything you might want, including board games and puzzles; & the laundry works well. We had two dogs with us, & they loved it there. The rural area has nice roads for walking the dogs, & there is a big field fairly close by where the dogs enjoyed running around. We made partial day trips to go hiking on the Appalachian Trail & to visit Lexington and Staunton (both are lovely towns). We had good meals in Lexington: Bistro on Main (terrific); Napa Thai Cuisine (very good); and Nikos Grille for takeout (only OK). And we had a good lunch with huge portions in Staunton at Blu Point Seafood Co. & took out good pizza from Pizza Luca. Homeowner James was very responsive to our emails and texts, though we never met him. Arrival and departure was very easy since there was a keypad, & detailed home guide. We would return if we are back in the area. ##### Michele D.
