Apr 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely house for 2 The house is lovely with direct views of the water. The owners have obviously put in alot of time making it comfortable. We cooked and the kitchen had pots/pans enought to make meals. It is small, just the right size for a couple, but the bed was comfortable, and everything was clean and well-decorated. As others have said, there isn't a walkway up to the house, but as long as you don't have any mobility issues, it is really fine. We had our VT son with us for a weekend; it was a night away for him, and gave us good low key together time. The cabin Is a solid 45 min drive to campus, but we had planned to do Claytor Lake Park and such versus being in Blacksburg. Would stay here again. ##### Carter L.

Oct 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### We had an amazing time The only downfall to this place is that there's no walk way up to the house which makes it hard to get up the hill with slick grass and roots hidden in the grass. Also the water pressure was less than desirable. However the area is beautiful and the house is immaculate. The bed was very cozy. The front of the house is all windows and faces the lake which meant you always have a great view. Eating on the deck overlooking the lake was the highlight of our evenings. We are already planning another visit! ##### Trevor M. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dave W. Sep 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in Disliked: Communication, location #### Unfortunate While the location was nice and peaceful my safety was threatened and the owner could have cared less. They rented out their property next door to a group that had a pitbull that attacked both me and my dog. I tried to work with the owner but they forced me to leave days early due to my safety concerns and would not offer a refund or any compensation. I would never trust them again. ##### Dave W.
