    Virtue House

    September 11, 2012

    As a midway stop between our rustic cabin in Montana and our home in the Bay Area (SF), Virtue House gently eases the transition. Welcoming, personal, and quiet with charming Charlotte to anticipate & accommodate our travel needs, we will return.

    A great find

    August 05, 2012

    My husband and I were in the area, wanting to fish the Owyhee River ... we knew the fishing was great but it was HOT and we did not want to be camping in 100 degree heat! Needed to be able to come back to A/C at the end of the day. Googled bed and breakfasts in Ontario and found Virtue House. What a GREAT place! A/C works great! Charlotte is delightful. You get the whole house and Charlotte comes in in the morning and cooks you breakfast. We loved this place, we stayed for five days (I think ... at least longer than our original plan) and we will go back in Sept on our route back east ... but beware .... the internet is dial-up. We were ok because we have mobile broadband. This is NOT a negative comment ... it's just a beware if you are really counting on high speed internet access on someone else's dime. Loved this place ...

    We were so delighted with Virtue House. Such a wonderful alternative to a motel. Owners were very knowledgeable of the area & had great supply of travel brocheres. Breakfast each morning couldn't have been more perfect!! It was everything we had hoped for & more!!

    Lovely home, plenty of room to spread out!

    August 12, 2010

    My husband and I and our two young children stayed in this lovely home in July 2010. It is a one-bedroom, free-standing unattached home, with only one party of guests at a time. We stayed four nights and the innkeepers were most gracious and accomodating. The breakfasts were delicious & plentiful, and most agreeable to all four of us, young ones included! The innkeepers' limits were clear & understood, and absolutely no infringement on our personal preferences. We were welcomed to make the place ours during our stay and happily did so. We found the neighbors and townspeople friendly and welcoming. This is a small, quaint town, but plenty to do, or not do, as one wishes. We look forward to visiting again and to a quiet, comfortable home.

    Oasis in the desert

    August 13, 2009

    Traveling from Seattle this way south can be long and hot. Traveler with a companion or small family would feel at ease in this charming little house. Location is easy to get to most things in town and the main Hi-way. It's on a nice quiet street and the Innkeepers were great and gracious. They have an interesting history of the house and the area being history buffs as they are. The rooms were bright and lacey window coverings and very clean. Like going to Gramma's House. We are'nt much morning eaters but she's very good pleasing you with a good breakfast if you need something to stick to your bones. I thought the value of the B&B was very affordable compared to the motels down the road.
