Beautiful Historic Home in Roanoke

Charming old home close to downtown. We used it for a base for our team as we sponsored a local festival. Beautfiul interior, although the old boards creaked loudly so moving around at night might wake up others. The host was very responsive and accomodating. We'd stay here again.

This historic home has been beautifully preserved and we constantly marveled at how neat it was. Some nice modern refreshments (AC, bathrooms, Laundry, TVs, wifi). Beds were fantastic and everything was very clean.The neighborhood is pretty sketchy, so the private/secured parking was a big plus. That said, don't expect many neighborhood restaurants or amentities, the only grocery within miles is basically a vape shop with some packaged foods and energy drinks.The property managers also could be a bit better--the first thing we saw when we arrived was overflowing trash cans from previous renters that animals were tearing into/through the bags. We specifically asked if the upper floor had AC and were assured it did (It does not, it was a pure sauna up there). Also could use some more kitchen items, there wasn't a single steak knife/paring knife for example. The only knife in the entire kitchen was a dull chef's knife, which we all had to share as we ate--awkward.

If you love historic homes that offer a feel of luxury this home is perfect for you. We had a fantastic time staying here. The home is well appointed and is conveniently located to many places for entertainment and eating. The host was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. I cannot recommend this location more.

The outside is not maintained very well and there is no hot tub as advertised. Guests should be aware to bring shampoo and soap and the one ply toilet paper was useless. No wine opener, I left one.The inside downstairs is beautiful and decorated beautifully but the other floors had little air flow and it felt like there was a very heavy “energy” present.
