Really clean, felt like I could walk barefoot in the house and not worry about anything. Hosts gave me an early check in which helped me a lot with my plans in Staunton. They were very responsive!

Stuart Cottage deserves additional stars! A peaceful, comfortable and beautiful property. The kitchen is well stocked, linens top notch and sitting areas are comfortable. It is evident that the hosts make their client's needs a top priority. The steep driveway is not an issue as there is room for two cars in the driveway and plenty of parking on the quiet street. Highly recommend!

Beautiful home in a great location!

The Stuart Cottage was a wonderful place to spend a long weekend. We walked to town and enjoyed the charm of Staunton and took the short drive to Natural Bridge. The home itself was well-equipped and had plenty of space for a family of six. We enjoyed our stay and would choose to stay here again.

This is a very well appointed and stocked house. We very much enjoyed our stay and all there was to do in Staunton. We also loved being able to walk to the downtown and not be completely reliant on our cars. Great place.

What a beautiful cottage! Everything was pristine and the owners were so generous with the amenities! I had a wonderful time and was the lucky one who got to stay in the beautiful Master bedroom. The shower is gorgeous! If I ever return to Staunton, I’ll be sure to rent this lovely cottage again!

This cute cottage has it all

The owners provided all the amenities of a hotel. The cottage was clean, with great furnishings and the kitchen was really well equipped for cooking big meals. The town is fun and historic. We would stay again.

Great place for a family getaway

The house was very clean, comfortable and roomy for 4 adults. Beds were very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. The location was perfect and close to everything in downtown Staunton. The property manager was excellent to work with. She was immediately available when needed and quickly took care of an issue. We would definitely stay here again!

Great stay

This is the second time we stayed at this place. It’s clean, comfortable, and adorable. The only negative is the approach to the house itself, which includes a steep driveway as described in the listing. There are some great lighting and the steps up to the house can be tricky.

Sisters Getaway

The Stuart Cottage was the perfect place to stay for a 3-day mini vacation with sisters & their husbands. The house was very comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable and amenities were abundant. Location was great. We could walk into town or drive a short distance to local breweries and restaurants. We chose Staunton as an easy meeting spot between Baltimore and Raleigh. We enjoyed the shopping district, restaurant selection/ quality and local attractions, especially the glassblowing demonstration at Sunspots Studio. Loved Reunion Bakery and Mill Street Grill! We would definitely stay there again!

Perfection

I originally booked Stuart Cottage as I was looking for a place in Staunton while I was dealing with a serious family emergency. I am so lucky to have found this place on VRBO. Check-in process was a breeze, the property was immaculately clean, fully equipped kitchen with everything one could want (although I didn't have the opportunity to use it much - other than the coffee maker), nice sized bedrooms and baths, great washer/dryer, and excellent location in walking distance to Downtown. Mostly though, I want to complement the compassion and wonderful assistance of the property booking staff. I had to extend my stay a couple of times due to changing circumstances, and I was so grateful for the very timely communication as well as the team making it so easy for me to change my departure date. I would absolutely recommend staying at Stuart Cottage, you won't be disappointed.

We selected the Stuart Cottage mainly based on it's location in Staunton. We had people coming from western North Carolina, eastern North Carolina and eastern Maryland. The home was great for our purpose, simply to meet and to do several things. The kitchen is among the most well appointed that I have encountered in staying at a VRBO property. We cooked all of our meals and had everything we needed to prepare the meals. The property was very clean, well furnished and comfortable. We were very comfortable while staying there. A couple of minor points. The property is not accessible for those with limited ability to climb stairs. There is no access to the property that does not require climbing a flight of stairs. If I had known that before booking I would not have booked the property. Second, we encountered a significant winter storm over the weekend. There are no snow removal methods at the property accessible to the visitors. Fortunately one of our party brought a snow shovel so we were able to accomplish basic snow removal. Overall, it is great property in an idyllic location.
