I was in Buena Vista to attend a graduation from SVU. I thought I would spoil myself while there and stay just a few blocks from the school. It was really awesome to stay in a 1903 Victorian house with many of the original furnishings. The host, Daniel, is fantastic. He gave me a tour of the house and was easy to contact for any questions. In addition to my lovely room and modern bathroom, there is a dining room with access to hot drinks or milk and even cereal 24/7. Each morning’s breakfast was homemade deliciousness. And he even made me a breakfast to go- biscuit w/ bacon, egg, cheese- not even on the menu, for when I needed to leave early. There is also an open parlor for visiting as well as a large front porch. I will definitely be staying there again!

Meticulously restored Victorian home! It’s worth it, just for the grand staircase! Daniel, our host, was very friendly, professional, and went out of his way to make sure our stay was wonderful!

Charming, peaceful and very comfortable. Live in an exceptionally well maintained 1900 family house with the amenities of a modern hotel. Perfect location for a retreat, a relaxing vacation or a hiking resting hub. The service is most pleasant and accommodating. If I come back to this beautiful area, I would definitely stay here.

We had a great stay at Blue Ridge Abbey! The restored Victorian home retains all the charm of the original home, with updated features (heated bathroom floors!) When you walk through the house, you feel like you are walking back in time. The room we stayed in was much bigger than most we have stayed in, and the bed was very comfortable . Even though we stayed in early March and couldn’t take advantage of it, the wrap around porch looks so inviting to sit and watch the day go by. Maybe next time we stay… We would definitely recommend Blue Ridge Abbey to anyone to any one passing thru or as a destination for a quiet time in a small town.
