Great docent, he was a student from VT. There is a lot to see inside this house, beautifully maintained, they are currently working on restoring the gardens, but they have them well marked up and it's fascinating. Interesting visit, not too long.

I stopped by here on a rainy afternoon and took the short audio tour around the first floor of the home. It is beautifully restored and the audio guide gave some interesting insights into both the history of Blacksburg and the Black family that formerly inhabited this house. Total visit only took approximately 30-45 minutes and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Went here after a Saturday Virginia Tech football game. There was already a pretty nice crowd but we did get a table for our party of 6. My husband had the beer flight, I had the specialty beer with the rim of cinnamon and sugar. My daughter had Kombucha. All were completely satisfied with the selections. We will definitely return on a future visit.
