Great spot in Blacksburg

Was a very nice and clean property. Aside from a little road noise, host was easy to work with and the rooms all had a nice feel to them. Will definitely book again!!

Cutest spot in Blacksburg!

My family and I were here for a swimming event and I was grateful this cute little cottage had my top necessities; a kitchen well supplied and a laundry room. Thank you for making our stay so cozy and we look forward to rebooking every time we are in Blacksburg.

Peaceful weekend at the Tranquil Retreat

Staying at the Tranquil Retreat has been so much nicer than staying at a hotel. Plenty of space for 3 adults and we really appreciated the upgraded amenities, including the wonderfully comfortable beds. Great, well stocked kitchen, very easy to prepare a meal and nice to have a washer and dryer. This is our second stay here to visit our daughter, and we will certainly be back.

Weekend at the Cave

The house had high end amenities, was very clean, well decorated, and had wonderfully comfortable beds. Although small looking from the outside, there was plenty of room for 3 adults.

cozy little spot

You feel like you've walked into a Joanna Gaines home and, yes, tranquil is an accurate description for it. It might be small, but it has everything you need for a long weekend in Blacksburg.

Nice respite within minutes of campus

My daughter and I stayed here for two nights while she was attending a sports camp at Va Tech. Nicely remodeled, quaint cabin less than 10 minutes from campus. Would totally rent again if/when we return to Blacksburg.

Great stay after a rough start

We arrived late on a Saturday night only to find we had the wrong lockbox code. We called and texted, and reached a nice young lady who immediately came to our rescue. The tiny house (500 sq ft) was lovely, and well maintained. It was just enough for a pleasant trip.
