⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay! The house was lovely and charming. It was very clean and extremely comfortable—everything was exactly as described. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. We truly could not have picked a better place for our stay and would happily book again. Highly recommend!

We spent a full month at The Yellow Bird Cottage and absolutely loved it! The house was immaculately clean, stylishly decorated, and truly had every amenity we could possibly need for a long-term stay. The neighborhood is very nice—we loved being within walking distance to a coffee shop and brewery, plus the town has an excellent pizza place and plenty of convenient grocery stores. We felt right at home and would happily stay here again. Highly recommend! Definitely a 5 star place to stay.

Cute spot in Radford. Neighborhood was peaceful and the house was perfect for us. Frank was nice enough to set up a Christmas tree for us and some decorations. Made our stay feel a little more like home. Check in/out was easy and all instructions for property were clear. My only complaint was I wish I had time to use the gorgeous back deck to grill or something! Highly recommend if you're coming to the area.

We had a wonderful, relaxing visit with our daughter (RU senior). The porch swing, enormous back deck, and fire pit were perfect for November usage. The kitchen is well appointed and laid out, and it made cooking an early Thankgiving dinner a breeze. Overall, this cottage is cozy and filled with upscale amenities and tasteful decor. We would definitely stay here again.

My family and I had a wonderful stay on our recent trip to tour Virginia Tech. Frank is very responsive to messages and had lots of great recommendations. The home was lovely, wish we would have been able to enjoy the back deck more. We hope to be back in the future for move in day at VT.

We loved our stay at the Yellow Bird Cottage! It was clean, cozy, and spacious enough for our family of 4. The kitchen and bathrooms were beautifully appointed and had everything we needed. It was close to local restaurants and shops, and just a short drive to VT. The deck was a lovely spot to relax and I wish we had more time to enjoy it fully. Frank was a great host, accommodating and checked on us throughout our stay. Highly recommend!
