EXCELLENT location for JMU graduation! Our family enjoyed staying so close to campus. We loved sitting on the porch and the driveway was perfect for getting in and out during traffic. Beds were comfortable and home was well appointed. Host was so friendly, allowed us to check in an hour early and communicated quickly. We can't wait to come back for our next JMU visit!

We booked this house for JMU graduation and loved the location. The house was a perfect size for a family. There are four bedrooms and a basement with a couch. The kitchen is huge and well equipped with everything you would need. The living room was a great place to hang out. The house is within walking distance to the JMU campus (close to the stadium side of campus). The hosts were so easy to work with and very responsive to questions prior to our visit. Highly recommend!

Place was very clean and walkable to campus. Plenty of room to spread out. The downstairs bed was super comfortable! We also enjoyed sipping wine on the porch!

Your place is lovely. Nicest, largest house we have ever stayed in. Our grandkids adored the basement room with the enormous TV. We needed to stay in the vicinity of our daughter who will soon to have another baby and her family, so especially appreciate the location near them. Thanks for a nice stay!
