We enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. The neighborhood was quiet and the house well furnished. It was nice to find there were snacks available and toiletries if we forgot anything. I would definitely recommend this home and if we are back in the area would stay there again.
Loved the charm of the house, the thoughtful touches, and welcome feeling. Plenty of parking in driveway for our 3 vehicles. Close to everything we visited. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels, clean, snack basket (nice touch!), and good recommendations on things to see/do.
Great location clean and well kept. Rebecca from Rivercity Retreats is exceptional. Communication, check in and everything she does is what the industry needs!
The house was equipped with everything we needed and the guest notebook with Rebecca’s suggestions for local restaurants, stores, parks, etc. was a nice personal touch! The furniture was comfortable and there was plenty of space for our group of seven. The house looks exactly as pictured and I highly recommend booking with Rebecca!
Great place to land! We came for a mountain bike race. Loved chilling on the back porch in the evening! Easy access to Anglers Ridge and restaurants/shopping. Very well stocked (tools) kitchen for cooking.
We were there only for Thursday and Friday nights, spending the weekend down the road at Virginia International. This home worked great for us to crash those nights and had a well equipped kitchen so we could knock together breakfast (and coffee!) before heading out early in the mornings. Close to several interesting restaurants as well!
Our family stayed at Marshall House for our daughter’s graduation. It was perfect to accommodate our family. Everyone was comfortable, we all felt at home.
Rebecca was lovely and helped this new to VRBO every step of the way.
Everything was great! Everything was neat, clean and very accommodating. I will most definitely stay again. I talked with Rebecca a few times and she was so nice and helpful on all questions.
The Marshall house is phenomenal. The rooms are large with plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen is well equipped. I love that the owners kept so much of the original charm of the home when updating the house. The neighborhood is quaint and feels very safe to walk around. We will gladly stay here again.
This place is perfect! Very welcoming from start to finish. Plenty of room for all of us to stay and hang out comfortably. Owner responds so quick for questions. Will stay here again if we are in Danville! Thank you!
