Terrific
This place is absolutely magnificent. The attention to detail is amazing and the owners couldn't have been more helpful and considerate. Even if this takes you slightly out of your way it's well worth the trip!!!

Beautiful property! Gorgeous room and bathroom was substantial for the age of the home. Morning view was so pretty with the mist over the area. There is a substantial front yard with grass and trees. Gives a plantation feel. Front porch is a great place to relax in the evenings with plenty of seating and rockers. Breakfast was really good, well prepared, and plenty. The manager was in contact via text before we arrived with easy to follow instructions. Only con is a drive to get food for lunch and/or dinner but for the beauty of the property, it isn’t a bother. Our room was upstairs so we did lug our luggage but after sitting all day with travel, this wasn’t a problem. I believe they have some ground floor rooms if you’d rather avoid stairs. Bed was comfortable. Room clean and tastefully decorated. Room had a key for entry. Easy after hours arrival instructions, including getting the key to our room. Felt safe and secure the whole time. Would definitely stay again!

Rockwood Manor is a beautiful bed-and-breakfast chocked full of history and family memorabilia. our room was spacious, well appointed and comfortable. The public areas were replete with antiques, maps and books all charting the rich family history. Our hosts were friendly and more than happy to share the history of the house and family. We stayed for the Purdue vs. Va Tech football game. Blacksburg was an easy 30 minute drive. A perfect location if you want to get away from the game-weekend crowds.

We loved our stay. The house is beautiful and the owners thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. Chrissy made us an excellent breakfast! It is out in the country side and so peaceful. We saw a deer walk right by the house as we enjoyed our wine on the front porch rocking chairs. It was the highlight of our vacation. My husband especially enjoyed the architecture of this historic house.

Overall a great experience. The room was large and beautifully furnished with antiques. The owner Frank was a fixture at breakfast and offered tips on local sites as well as the history of the manor. We’ll definitely return for a visit when we head back to Va Tech to visit our daughter.

This property is gorgeous! Frank met us at the door and we were checked in in no time. Our room was huge and had everything we needed. Unfortunately we had to leave before breakfast was served at 9 a.m., but if we're ever back in this area we would definitely stay here again. Lots of common areas and a beautiful wraparound porch from which to enjoy a pretty sunset or an early morning cup of coffee.

Staying at Rockwood Manor is a wonderful experience. We have been there twice and have fully enjoyed the stay. The rooms are clean, the food is great and the company is terrific. Christie cooks a wonderful breakfast and Frank adds to the ambiance with the pleasure of his company! Not to mention you are in a civil war historical plantation! The grounds are beautiful and it is a very peaceful and relaxing time. Will definitely stay there again!

Beautiful home with incredible architecture and a warm and welcome country vibe. You can tell the hosts love this home and property and want to share it with all guests and visitors. Could not rate everything excellent as we missed breakfast because we were on a tight schedule, but I would assume it would be wonderful. Only dislike was the bed pillows, seemed at the end of their usefulness, not too fluffy, our room was very elegant and comfortable.

Rockwood Manor was a pleasant surprise to find on Hotels.com. The room was perfect. The bathroom was spacious. Loved the fireplace. Extra points for providing five pillows on the bed (rather than the standard 2). There were a couple of parlors to explore. The crown molding was original. The host prepared everyone breakfast and even sat down with us to talk while we ate. No complaints. If you're fond of 19th-century architecture and history, then you'll want to check it out.

looks nice from outside, bad inside
Our room was in the basement. The hallway floor was painted like a garage. The room is huge but it was cold and dingy. There was a tiny handheld heater. No internet. It was out of no where. we texted the contact person multiple times for different information, no one responded. bed sheets and blankets were shabby and looked dirty. we ended up using our own blanket. they don't serve breakfast until 9 am. we couldn't wait that long, so ended up leaving.
