The description of the property location was misleading and in some places inaccurate. The cottage is a very old and poorly maintained house. When we arrived, there were ants in the kitchen (reported immediately) and nothing was done about it. The owners were obsessed with wanting the tenants to keep the place clean, yet the closet with the cleaning supplies (broom, vacuum, etc) was locked. The kitchen was poorly stocked (pots, pans, utensils, etc.) but we ended up eating out most of the time. The main floor bedroom has a queen size bed that is ridiculously high, requiring a kid's small folding step stool to literally climb up into the bed; this situation is a safety hazard for folks with mobility issues, like my 87-year old mother. The current picture in the listing shows a regular height bed. Had we known the real situation, we would not have rented the place. The two upstairs bedrooms were adequate, though the full size bed is ancient and uncomfortable. If you replace the word "vintage" with "poorly maintained" you would have a more accurate description of the place.We did like its convenient location: 15 minutes from Christiansburg and Blacksburg.I have to wonder if the owner and/or the property management firm (Blue Ridge Escapes) are novices. While Blue Ridge Escapes was quick to reply within the app, the responses were standardized and not accurate for this particular property (eg, no washer/dryer).
