My son and I stayed at Williams cabin on the river and absolutely loved it. We had such a wonderful time waking up in the morning to the sounds of the river and the trains. Quaint cabin with elevated views of the mountains. The large deck overlooking the river is where we ate all of our meals. William communicated with me and gave me all the details we needed for our stay. We are already planning another stay here for next year!

Lovely view of river. Very close to where we were working. Great for a family getaway.

Our family came from three different states to attend a funeral. This was a perfect house for us to use as a gathering place, allowing us a common space to share and private bedrooms. The furnishings are modern and up to date appliances. It was clean. The beds were comfortable. We hope to return for a happier occasion soon.

Adriana was such a great host. Very fast communication and was flexible with our schedule. Her house was located about 30 mins from Virginia Tech. The house was so beautiful and clean. Definitely recommend!

Great space! The mountains were beautiful, the spot was easy to find, park, and everything was very clean. I recommend this to anyone passing through or staying in the area 5/5.

Right off the highway, not far from everything, very comfortable

Very nice place. A model home right on the main road.

This is a Model Home (probably used as a show house during weekdays) - very clean, the bedrooms were decorated nicely with really soft and comfortable linens and blankets. It has an office with desk you can use. Bathrooms were large and clean. Plenty of parking (probably 4-5 spots). Big house that can definitely fit 7-8 people comfortably. Big kitchen if you want to use it during your stay (bring your own cooking stuff though). Had Wifi but a bit spotty and the TV didn't work when we were there. Adriana is really fast with communication and she allowed us to check in an hour earlier than stated. Very easy check in and out transaction. Perfect location for Doe Creek Weddings!

Adriana was easy to work with. The home was very clean but not as big as I hoped and also right on the main road, which was fine for us.

House worked great and allowed us lots of space for socializing. Owners even alerted us to travel issues on I81 which was very thoughtful. Only recommendations would be to have a little more kitchenware and perhaps a washer and dryer.

Lisa and Ron were so responsive to all of our questions, and their guest house was even better than we had hoped for! It was spacious and clean, with plenty of space to cook meals in the kitchen. All the bedrooms were very comfortable, and there was certainly no shortage of bathrooms! It was only a 20 minute drive from the Virginia Tech campus, and we would absolutely come back for our next visit to Blacksburg!

This listing is as described. The house was located in a beautiful area-secluded and quiet. The house was very clean and well kept. Lisa did a great job at communicating throughout and answering questions in a timely manner. The house was perfect for our large group and we enjoyed our quick stay.

This place exceeded our expectations. It was clean and spacious and absolutely perfect for VT graduation. We will stay again!!

Rooms even more spacious than photos relayed. Perfect location for VT games and hiking Cascade Falls. Spacious bathrooms could use a piece of furniture for more "countertop space" when shared by multiple people.

We were there to visit our Southbound through hikers on the Appalachian Trail and to give them a break from the trail for a weekend. This was the perfect location in a very quiet and peaceful area while convenient to the AT. The hikers gave us a list of criteria they wanted for a cabin that included wi-fi, a bed for each of them and a good TV. Thankfully, we met their expectations. We met Lisa & Ron upon arrival and they were very gracious host offering whatever we needed. We would definitely stay again.

This place was perfect for our Easter Weekend with my daughter. Much more room than it appears from the pictures. Very clean and comfortable. Fully stocked kitchen was great and came in very handy over the 4 days we stayed. Will definitely rent again.

Stef and Seth were very welcoming and laid back hosts. My husband and I had the whole place to ourselves and enjoyed the comfort of this spacious home. We checked in way later than anticipated and arrived to the house late at night which would have been hard to find without Stef's distinct directions. Best part about arriving at night? Waking up to the most amazingly spacious back yard! (If we weren't in a rush we would have had some complimentary coffee and toaster strudel on the back porch. This place would be awesome/perfect before a big Tech football game with a large group of people or just an affordable quaint getaway. We don't come to Blacksburg often so Stef was able to provide some awesome recommendations for coffee shops and was overall a great communicator. Thank you both again!

Great place in the woods! Loved the surroundings, perfect for a weekend getaway!

It's a big place, good for the family, even it's a farm house, it's only few minutes driving to the town.

A decent place for the price. Suggestions were made to hostess to help make it an even better place to stay for the next guests. Not too far from campus in a private wooded area with a nice outdoor space. Also liked the fact that there were different rooms for sleeping and we had a kitchen to use. :)

Chase never disappoints and is always there if you need anything. Thanks for a great weekend.

The house and the view were amazing! We really enjoyed our stay there. The house is off the beaten path enabling you to really take in the scenery. This was our first time using Airbnb and really did not know what to expect. The hosts were very kind and helpful. We could not have asked for a better experience.

We so enjoyed our Thanksgiving holiday at Badgers Run. This is a great home for getting away from it all. The pictures do not do it justice! It is spacious with wonderful views and convenient to Blacksburg and VT. The animals are an added bonus: goats, chickens and Toby the most lovable house kitty.

The house is lovely and the views/location are lovely. The driveway defeated us so we had to hike up the last steep hill but that wasn't too bad. Julie's house sitter was terrific and helped transport our stuff up the last stretch of the drive. Definitely consider having 4 wheel drive if you stay here. My daughter and I had a ball looking after the goats and hens. Be prepared for the rooster to wake you up before sunrise with his crowing! We thought that was great but others might not like such an early alarm clock. The cat is a sweetie. Our dog had a ball running around. The satellite internet/tv struggled to stream on cloudy days but we weren't there to watch tv so it didn't really bother us. A very memorable experience and Julie is very helpful.

Jennifer's house on the river is exactly as pictured! It's rustic, clean, cozy, and a great spot to host a party. Plenty of couches and comfortable space for a group. Jennifer made us feel so welcome, and encouraged us to make use of the grill, tiki torches, fire pits, kayaks, anything at all! The porches and view were incredible - we are already talking about when we can come back over the summer and spend a few days.

This was a last minute book for VT graduation, and Jennifer was very prompt, professional and flexible throughout the process. The house was perfect for my family, especially the bbq after graduation. The location is very scenic and all family members (young and old) simply loved the views, location and wide open spaces.

My stay was very nice. Met Alec upon arrival and had a friendly conversation. He showed me where everything was. It was as described in the advertisement. All spaces were very clean. The location was 10 miles from VT and access was extremely easy. On the first night we asked for a restaurant recommendation. The place Alec suggested hit the nail on the head. Will definitely be looking to stay there again in the future.

Alex's home is a great location to get away from it all, which is a comfortable distance from Blacksburg down town and a short distance from the national/state forest hike or to practice you firing skills at the State forest gun range. We stayed one night due to our travel plans and enjoyed a very comfortable bed and a great nights sleep.

This quiet hideaway is just what I needed to stay close to family in Blacksburg but a short drive away from student life. The house is surrounded by quiet lanes and walks to historic covered bridges and is 5 minutes drive to the Poverty Creek hiking network. A great place to be close to nature and the town!

The place is extremely clean and very quiet. The house itself was gorgeous on the inside (as well as the outside) and spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the sheets and towels smelled fresh and clean. I was very impressed overall and would recommend to anyone who wants a great stay right outside of Blacksburg!

The listing descriptions was very accurate, also, the back has a great overlook deck built for a view of the big creek below. Extremely convenient to Blacksburg via highway 460 in a quiet neighborhood. Alec recommended a restaurant in near by Eggleston and it was great. We will return!

Nice quite neighborhood, comfortable bed. We were there for one night and this was a good place to spend the night.

I had a wonderful stay. They were both very nice and if I ever need to stay in the area again I would stay with them if possible.

Alec was a great host and responded quickly! The home was clean and very comfortable -- would highly recommend!!

Hanna & Steve were great! They greeted us on arrival with a "straight out of the oven" gluten-free quiche -- the best! And were there if we needed them (which we didn't). The home was well-done, well-decorated & fully stocked. Beautiful! Wish we could have spent more time enjoying the peace & quiet and exploring the surrounding area. As this was my first time with Airbnb, our experience met & exceeded all expectations. I would definitely recommend staying here!!!

Hanna was so accommodating and staying at her place was absolutely wonderful. The spaces is filled with unique art, furnishings, etc. and it is located down a quiet hollow yet isn't too far from Blacksburg. We'll most certainly be staying here any time we're back in town!

When I usually come to Blacksburg I stay downtown or nearby. This time, I wanted a bit more headspace so I ventured out to Johanna's BEAUTIFUL home in Newport. My jaw literally dropped when I arrived on her property and set foot in the space. It's breathtaking—both the home itself and its surroundings. The home is beautiful and light-filled with a fabulous modern aesthetic complemented with eclectic and quirky, yet tasteful, art and furniture. It was the perfect sanctuary to return to after a long day filled with meetings. Quiet and serene. Even the drive out to Newport was a treat. Gorgeous scenery along the way. Johanna was incredibly accommodating and hospitable, and very quick to reply to messages. I can't wait to return!

The guest house is in a lovely setting up in the hills and Hanna is a great host. The house is decorated impeccably, and has all of the modern conveniences you could need. You feel like you are in a city loft/apt that happens to be in a nice secluded country setting. Hanna is very nice, and goes out of her way to make sure that you are comfortable. She made sure that the kitchen/fridge had all the basic items that we could need when we arrived so we would not need to drive out to the store. We would stay there again for sure. Just be prepared, the road to the house is narrow and quite windy and requires a lot of patience at nite.

Absolutely love the peace and serenity of this beautiful secluded cottage. So perfect to take a break from the rush of life! Hanna is a wonderful host and you'll love this peaceful environment. :)

What an amazing and peaceful place - we were welcomed with quiche and wine, our dogs enjoyed the big spaces and nature walks - couldn't have been a better spot.

The guest house was softly lit and music was playing. After a 6 hour ride it was wonderful to kick off our shoes. The refrigerator was stocked for snacks and drinks and a warm quiche was on the stove. We enjoyed the quiche for breakfast the next morning. Our weekend was very busy at the Virginia Tech campus and we did not get to relax or really spend much time at the studio. The deer wandering around in the morning mist was an added experience. We will go back and really take advantage of the serenity. Great location for hiking and seeing that part of Virginia.

Hannah and Steve were great hosts. The pictures here do not do justice to the beauty of the setting or the apartment. I could not recommend this location any more! Nice treats awaited us and the homemade quiche by Steve was the BEST ever! The dogs are an added bonus! We will definitely be making many more trips to this home. Jeff

This is a lovely place to be - with a generous and charming host. The house is huge and quiet, beautifully furnished. I'd go back in a heartbeat - and in fact, tried to - but my work took me elsewhere.

We had a great stay at Victoria's- the place is magical- it is nested in a beautiful county side, only 15 minutes from VT- plenty of space and extremely clean- My seven year old daughter loved the horse and the animals- the house is in middle of a beautiful berg, with natural springs all around it- Victoria has a massage school and teaches massage- If I knew that earlier, I would have made time to get a massage as well as Water Shiatsu- We all had a great time- Breakfast, fresh coffee and a great tour of the house and the ground with Jesse made it very special- We will be going back for sure.

Charming old house and gracious hosts

Victoria and Jess were amazing Hosts! Their home is lovely, very clean and in a beautiful setting! Everything was as stated and BETTER!

We really enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very nice, even went out of their to get me milk for my tea!

Spring water on tap and a nice private room with a view were our welcome amenities at Victoria's. We enjoyed our stay and the conversations very much. Thanks for your hospitality.

Everything was just as described and exactly what we were looking for. Great proximity to Blacksburg, very friendly hosts (the two legged as well as the four legged!) and very clean, rustic home. Victoria and Jess made us feel like old friends stopping by for a visit. Thank you for your hospitality. We'll be back!

Decent home to stay in for any Virginia Tech games. Just 7 miles from stadium. View is awesome. Only space heaters in all rooms. No cable tv. There is a flat screen that we hooked our phone into to watch football games. David was a great host, good directions, easy accessibility. He does, however, need a new bed upstairs which he told me he would take care of. We would rent again for VT sport events.

Loved my stay here, likely one of the best AirBnB's I've stayed at. Will certainly return.

Cozy place to stay. A must if you are in the area!

Buck lair cabin is the perfect place! It is well-equipped for a comfortable stay and charming. The area is beautiful and private but it is still easy to get to Blacksburg. Gerald and Ruth are perfect hosts. Easy to communicate with if needed. We will definitely be back!

The cabin was perfect. It feels like you are in the middle of the country but you are actually very close to Blacksburg. This would be a perfect place to stay while visiting Blacksburg or surrounding area. Gerald and Ruth made us feel welcome. They left us various treats including freshly baked banana bread and milk from a local dairy. The kitchen was well equipped with all of the necessary items and more. In fact, the entire cabin was well equipped with games, DVDs, towels, toiletries, firewood, comfortable chairs inside and out. Even though it was gray and rainy the entire time we were there, it was comfortable and fun in the cabin. We enjoyed celebrating Christmas with our son and his new wife at the cabin. Thank you for a lovely time!

This house is the perfect mountain getaway. It is less than a mile from the highway, but feels like you are miles from civilization. They had stocked the fridge with milk, beer and breakfast. The house is very comfortable and quiet. Sitting on the porch with the sound of the stream flowing was as relaxing as anywhere I've ever been. Only a stones throw from Blacksburg, waterfalls, Appalachain Trail and more the location is second to none.

Amazing. Perfect for visit with my daughter who is at VT. I will be back

An absolutely wonderful place to relax and unwind from the city life. This adorable cabin is nestled in the woods with a wood-burning stove that we could enjoy as we played cards, a well-stocked kitchen that included a thoughtful welcome note and snack upon our arrival. Hiking at the Cascades within 20 minutes; wineries, a cidery, and brewery are all relatively close as well. An overall great place and a great stay!

We picked up the keys from Shaena's restaurant next door and found the place so wonderful we ate a second dinner and had drinks. Food is spectacular and the staff was on point. Probably the best dinner out experience in a long time (and we eat out way too much). After dinner, she walked us over to the house, got us settled and was on her way. The bed is super soft and bouncy but otherwise, everything was on point. Great experience. Need to come back and spend more time exploring.

We really enjoyed our stay. Shaena was wonderful and welcoming - and was very flexible with us. It was lovely to have a fantastic meal at the Palisades Restaurant and then just walk next-door to the cottage and settle in. The interior of the cottage was 100% rustic charm and comfort. My only complaint is that the restaurant's dumpster next door was left open over night and throughout the next day, and that combined with the heat caused a powerful rotting meat smell to permeate the area - which made sitting outside on the lovely porch very unappealing.

Our stay was fantastic. The house is very accommodate and comfortable. Shaena's restaurant was amazing. The staff was great and the music was very enjoyable.

Shaena is a great host and we loved staying in her home. We arrived at 7pm and arranged dinner for 7:30pm at her restaurant next door called the Palisades. The home was clean, comfortable and quite. I love the sound of trains and horns and hearing the train come through made me feel like home. Earplugs are included for anyone not wanting to hear the occasional train. I would recommend staying at Shaena's place especially if dining at the Palisades restaurant which is excellent. Also if you plan on visiting Virginia Tech or hiking Cascade Falls which we did, it perfectly located.

We had a very wonderful stay here. The house is charming and comfortable and dinner and brunch at Shaena's restaurant (The Pallisades) was incredible. Came for my birthday and would do it all over again exactly the same way, and hopefully will sometime soon! Thanks for everything Shaena!

Thank you Kelley for welcoming me into your home. It was just what I needed after a long day on the bicycle. A hot shower, a comfy bed, a nice view and air conditioning.

Chase's cabin was just wonderful, and we thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Chase as well. The cabin is in a beautiful location, just a short walk to the river. The cabin itself is quirky and fun, really a delightful place to stay. Chase was a terrific host, communicating quickly and thoroughly in response to our questions. We definitely enjoyed the many amenities of the cabin, including the breathtaking view. We definitely plan to return.

We had a great weekend! The house was perfect and the view was spectacular. Everything was ready for us when we got there and we were given plenty of suggestions on what to do and where to go! We had no problems at all and will definitely consider coming back for another weekend!

Our host, Chase, was most delightful! Chase was extremely helpful in providing area attractions, restaurant ideas, etc. We greatly appreciated your kindness!

Beautiful place ! The cabin is located pretty close to the river. It accommodates 4 comfortably, and chase was very kind full to explain in detail.

Chase was very accessible and helpful from pre-arrival until the end of our stay. The Palisades Restaurant (15 minutes away) which he recommended was a highlight of our trip. The house is cozy and has everything you need, with a beautiful view of the river. A few glitches: ignore prior reviews that mention a hot tub, as we learned after our arrival that the tub is broken; you have to be careful with the electrical system--we tripped a breaker running a hair dryer in the bedroom; the train noise throughout the night takes some getting used to. Apart from that, a good time and a fair value. Chase really does try hard to provide a great experience. We would stay here again.

Chase was a terrific host. He was very responsive and checked in a few times to make sure we had what we needed. The cabin has a great view of the New River and the trains that go by on both sides. We thoroughly enjoyed both. The cabin is small but handles four overnight easily. We had 6 during the day and it worked just fine. The deck is big and awesome so that's where you will want to be anyway!

Pros- Chase responded quickly to questions and was accommodating when I needed to bring my dogs at the last second. The home has a great view, large deck, and is close to Blacksburg. Cons- The photos are somewhat misleading and a lot of the reviews describe the home as "quirky". I would describe this home as a small one bedroom home that is cluttered with furniture and nick-nacks. The "2nd" bedroom lacks privacy as it is separated from the kitchen with paper window blinds. The photo of the master bedroom accurately shows the great view from the window but not shown is how small the room is and all the oversized furniture that clutters the space. Chase charges a $75 cleaning fee, but it appears the only thing that gets cleaned is the sheets and towels. The house was dusty and unkept, had a lot of spider webs and spiders inside the home. The deck has dry rot under the hot tub which looks like a safety hazard. If you're in a pinch this house will work, but there are much nicer homes/hotels for the same price or less.

Chase was great. I will say this place is not for everyone. The positives are the view of the river the mountains and just the fabulous location. The cabin is not furnished with moder amenities. Also you need to be aware of the train noise. Read the reviews and decide if it is right for you. I was with some people who it was not right for. I would highly recommend it for hikers and tubers kayak or a guy weekend.. It would not be the right place for people who stay at 4 star hotels.
