It's hard to find a place so well kept and clean that allows pets. This was a real find and allowed some family members who couldn't otherwise attend our reunion to be there. Nice fenced yard.
5.0
House was very cute. Plenty of room.

Cute little bungalow! We very much enjoyed this place. A fenced back yard for our little dogs was the cherry on top! The weather was not great for outdoor activity, so we suggest taking the Virginia Railway Train ride. The sights of the farms and rolling hills were lovely. The lunch included with the ride was quite good.
5.0
The property was delightful, spacious, sparkling clean and there were so many extra touches, from mints on the pillow to dog bowls and towels provided for our pet! Right in the heart of town, with a great backyard our dog could run around in. I'd highly recommend it, whether you have a pet or not, I was super impressed.

5.0

4.0
This property is very clean, up-to-date and in a good location for walking to restaurants, etc. The upstairs rental was not distracting as some others mention. You can hear a little noise from walking but that's it. Fenced yard is nice if you have pets.
5.0
It was right downtown. We will be back.
5.0
Excellent two night night stay in this charming apartment in Staunton and communication with the owners was exceptional. It is a “basement” unit but because this historic home was built on a significant back-cut there is an amazing amount of natural light.
Clean, comfortable and amenity-filled, I would definitely stay here again. The only thing I would caution future guests is that the stairs down to the backyard-entry are fairly steep and might be an issue for some older guests.
5.0
The Hunker Down is a great place to stay. We made the trip for antiquing in Verona. This house is clean and cozy. It is close to downtown Staunton with lots of places to eat and shop. Kathy's was a great breakfast spot!
