We booked an E-Bike tour with Roanoke Mountain Adventures around the corner so found this lovely space while searching nearby. Not only was the location super convenient, we also found the highly rated restaurant Bloom was right next door! Very walkable area! The unit was clean, well stocked and absolutely adorable! Easy parking and easy access instructions were also appreciated. Nice outdoor space as well if you’d like to drink your coffee outside or enjoy a glass of wine, etc. Don’t hesitate to book this property!
I was in town for a challenging family event and needed a place that would be peaceful, convenient, and allowed my dog. I found it. The space is beautifully laid out, with intriguing details. My dog was welcome and enjoyed her stay. We were two blocks from the Roanoke Greenway and Green Goat, across the street from RND coffee, and just above Bloom. Friendly neighborhood, easy parking, excellent communication from the owners/managers. I will be back!
This is my second stay in this unit. Everything is well thought, very comfortable. My dog is welcome, which makes it a great place to stay. Quiet, and blackout curtains to help manage light. Love this place!
