I am so happy with the choice we made to stay in The Overlook

The place was amazing. Well stocked, super clean, comfortable. It was right around the corner from the theater (one reason we were in town), Woodrow Wilson museum, and shops and eateries. Parking was convenient and we loved sitting on the porch with the gas fire pit.

Perfect location for our needs

Although not much time was spent at the property except to sleep since my husband was visiting his son that lives 1/2 mile away, it was a pleasant and clean apartment. Would definitely consider staying here again for the next trip.

So happy with The Overlook

The Overlook was so clean, updated, well stocked, comfortable and close to everything we were in town for. We loved reading on the porch by the gas fire pit. This place has all the little extras that makes a vrbo experience special. I wish we had a few more days there!

Great Stay in Staunton

This apartment is as beautiful as the pictures show. Everything is walkable in Staunton and the apartment is in the midst of the town. The living area is comfortable & roomy. The kitchen is very well appointed & was used often. The bed & bath were comfortable & clean. I would recommend this apartment & will come again myself.

Cute Property and Perfect Location

The property was ideally located downtown and in walkable distance to all of the area restaurants and retail stores. It is beautifully renovated with all of the up-to-date amenities and is well-stocked with everything you might need during your stay. Communication was easy with the management company and the website gave us everything we needed to check in and area details. This property is at the top of our list for our next visit!

Great apartment to stay in the quaint town of Staunton: comfortable furnishings and bed, well stocked kitchen, nicely decorated and easy walking distance to the movie theater, shops and a variety of wonderful restaurants.

Shenandoah week

Everything we needed for a week hiking and exploring the Shenandoah Valley. The Overlook was in a great spot close to the Main Street and we made use of the nice selection of bars and restaurants. The apartment itself was well presented and was comfortable with a nice deck for hanging out.

We immediately felt at home as soon as we entered the apartment. It had many little touches that made it so comfortable. It was clean and well equipped. The hostess was amazing with communication. Staunton is a cute town with so much to do. The restaurants were great and they have many cute small shops. We would definitely return if we are passing through the area again.

Perfect location in a great VA city

This upscale, second floor apartment is totally modernized and within 2-4 blocks of everything that’s happening in Staunton! Perfect for two adults or two couples or any mix that needs two bedrooms. Need to be able to climb some steps, but that’s your only challenge. We’d definitely come back.

Long weekend with college bestie

We LOVE Staunton and this VRBO was excellent! The beds were comfy (& I’m picky). The porch was a great place to hang out. The kitchen was well appointed. Temperature controls were easy for this menopausal woman! I use a sound machine for sleep but even my friend (in the other bedroom) said it was quiet (with guests below) The train was never an issue.Easy walking distance for all Staunton has to offer! Don’t miss a performance at the Blackfriars Shakespearean Theatre, wonderfully delicious pastries at Reunion Bakery and delightful gelato at The Split Banana! Enjoy your stay!

GREAT location

The place was spotless, well stocked with everything you may need (coffee, shampoo/conditioner, etc), and in an incredible location. The ONLY reason I gave it 4 stars is because I am a light sleeper and so was woken up each morning by the family downstairs. The house is old and floors creak. The kids downstairs were running back and forth all morning (both mornings) and could be heard pretty clearly. Not the owner’s fault. Just be aware if a light sleeeper.

What property manager responded very quickly to any questions that I had and was very helpful and personable. You will thoroughly enjoy. If you're looking something close to the Shakespeare Center, and downtown this is the place. Additional shopping is a short drive away and the town itself is adorable.
