Excellent Hokie Family option w/ pet!

Easy (country road) 10 minutes to downtown Blacksburg. While we only had three adults on this trip and a small pooch, this home has plenty of sleeping and living space for several more. Indoor and outdoor spaces for gathering together with well appointed kitchen and outdoor cooking area. Highly recommend!

Great getaway

We came for a long weekend with our dogs to be near our son at VA Tech. The house is very nicely done and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the front patio, back enclosed porch, and various sitting spaces. Location was good for grabbing something to eat and about 15 minutes from our son’s house near VT. We’d be happy to stay here again.

Blissful!

The home is very well furnished and stocked with everything you need. Appreciate the added touches! This has become our home away from home when visiting family in the area. Love the screened porch with views of the property!

Great house in quiet neighborhood, 12 min to VT

We will definitely go back when availability matches our plans. House is nicely decorated with fun basement and backyard, comfortable beds and plenty of space for our alumni daughters and their families. Family room and kitchen were where we spent the most time cooking and sharing meals, listening to music. It was nice quality time with our family all together. On the main level, there is also a screened porch and a small unscreened portion off the kitchen. We enjoyed sitting out there on several occasions. Didn't have the chance to use the firepit downstairs outback but had plenty of wood if weather cooperated (windy). We did use the grill that is provided to cook chicken thighs for our spring game tailgate. Grandkids also enjoyed the pool table in the basement. We highly recommend for those interested in proximity to campus but the ability to return to the peace and quiet of this cozy cottage with plenty of room for the whole family.

VT visit

We enjoyed the home and property and it was a wonderful space for our son to visit when not in class. We would certainly consider the property again, if we decide to rent a home in the area.

Visit to VA Tech

My family and I stayed at the Portmore House while visiting my son who is a student at VA Tech. We loved the house and its location. The house was very clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed watching the sunset from the screened in porch! It was a short drive to campus and a shorter drive to restaurants and shops. We look forward to staying here again on our next trip to Tech!
