We stayed at the Beautiful Lake Cottage for a week and everything we could have needed was available including a well stocked kitchen and extra sheets and towels. Evelyn even provided snacks and a bottle of wine! All the information necessary was communicated by Evelyn before we arrived (finding the road to the cottage is a bit tricky ). We loved the view of the lake with the soothing fountain and the water lilies. We would definitely stay at the cottage on a return visit to Salem.

We needed a place that we could meet up with dear friends for a long weekend. Our visit to Roanoke was wonderful. The description of the cottage is as described. It’s truly private and in a quiet neighborhood. The pond was beautiful. The water lilies were a sight to see. We saw 5 deer and a ground hog several times. The kitchen is well equipped to make a meal. The bed linens and towels r hotel quality. Also, the place is located just outside the city limits. The host responded quick to my text.

Perfect for our needs

Great 2 bed 2 bath was just what we needed for our weekend in Roanoke. We were only there to sleep but the place was clean, safe, and the kitchen was fine for us - not sure you could cook a gourmet meal in it - but very functional. We will definitely go back next trip to Roanoke.

Close to everything!

This property is in a beautiful area with stores, restaurants and walking trails only a couple minutes away. It is obvious from the lovely decor that Evelyn wants her guests to feel at home. There were plenty of towels, extra blankets/pillows and the kitchen was fully stocked. It was truly a peaceful stay and we 10/10 recommend!

Cute place convenient to Roanoke

The guest house was clean and comfortable. The large backyard provided an element of privacy; and there was plenty of space inside the home. It’s in the heart of Cave Spring and only 10-15 minutes to downtown Roanoke. Would definitely recommend. :)

Great place for friends or family

This was a great place to stay with an out of town visitor….we each had our own bedroom and bath. Everything was very clean and tidy and every need was anticipated and provided for! We did need to reach out to our super kind host as we couldn’t figure out an aspect of the beautiful electric fireplace and she was very responsive and helpful. The house is located aa convenient part of town and the neighborhood was quiet. We enjoyed the small lake and outdoor area as well as the inside. Would definitely stay here again!

Hidden Gem

This was a lovely property! You can tell that a lot of care has been taken in the details. Evelyn has thought through everything that a guest could need during their stay and provided it. Her communication was great and she was very helpful and accommodating when our personal plans changed. We rented this property to stay in during our son's graduation from Virginia Tech. It was a great decision and we highly recommend it!

Can't Say Enough

There are not enough words that can express how AWESOME our stay was. Let's start with Evelyn. She is incredible. She went above and beyond when it came to hosting her guest. She was ALWAYS available, giving recommendations, and her hospitality was outstanding. No, there will never be enough words to give her all her due props.The abode was just as great. We really like the way the bedrooms are designed. Definitely gives guest their privacy. Everything you need to enjoy your stay is there. Extra would be a good word. If you like being outside, the patio/deck is the place to be. It is designed for day and night use. The area is quiet even though it is close to a hospital. You just don't here noise.When you read the description of this property, you get more than what you expect. Along with the cleanliness, furnishings and all the amenities, you also get the feeling serenity and comfort.This a great place to be and Evelyn is a SUPER host.Again, just can't say enough!

What a fun, quirky house! It was plenty of space for my mom and I. Great location! So close to the Salem Civic Center for a concert as well as getting into downtown Roanoke. Great communication with the host and easy to find. The pond is a beautiful bonus to the property.
