Ivycrest Inn B&B

We had a wonderful stay. The BB was very clean,comfortable,& the Inn Keepers were friendly. Close to restaurants,and local attractions. We can't wait to come back,& stay!

My daughter and I had the best stay at the Ivycrest Inn. Jim and Linda are wonderful. The rooms were spacious and clean. The food was excellent...we are already wanting to return for breakfast. Don't hesitate to stay here. It is very close to VT.

Our anniversary was made extra special by staying at Ivycrest. Everything about the B&B was outstanding. I recommend it to anyone needing a place to stay or celebrating a special occasion.

Our stay was fabulus! The rooms were clean, and the food was delicous! The innkeepers were very nice, and welcomed us into their home. I would highly recommend Ivycrest Inn to anyone needing this service.

I LOVE coming to Ivycrest B&B! The hosts are AMAZING, the food is great, and the rooms are very clean!! Would highly recommend this B&B!

This B&B is a hidden gem that needs to shine. Linda and Jim are wonderful hosts and the location is a perfect setting of yester-year.

If you want a quiet place to stay but still be close to everything, then this is it. This house is so sound-proof you don't hear a thing once you are inside!!! The beds are some of the most comfortable you will ever sleep on. I have fibromyalgia and usually am not able to rest when I am away from my bed. However, their mattresses and pillows are to die for! Not to mention the delicious breakfast. The portions are huge and the hospitality is divine. A must-stay home away from home.

We were the Fall Winners of the facebook contest that Jim and Linda had in 2012. What a blessing! We were welcomed just like "family". The rooms were beautiful and themed. The on suite bath was clean and fresh. Breakfast was a feast of Linda's Country Breakfast Casserole and Country Apple Dumplin's.. We will be back.

This lovely couple, Jim and Linda, took as in at the last minute, and every aspect was superior. Our room was spacious, lovingly appointed, impeccably clean, and bed very comfortable. We enjoyed a huge, delicious southern breakfast, including Linda's home-made irresistible creations. But the highest commendation we can offer is the hospitality and warmth of our hosts Linda and Jim. We really did enter as guests and leave as friends. We definitely plan a return visit, just to see them !

I had a great time with Jim and Linda. Besides a comfortable room and delicious breakfast they also provided a great dinner suggestion (Amelia's Pizzeria and Restaurant). A marvelous house and hosts.

Jim and Linda are the best. Staying here brings back such good memories. So cozy and safe feeling, not to mention gorgeous home.

In September 2012, we went to see a Tech game for my daughter’s 13th birthday. We by chance stumbled upon Ivycrest Bed and Breakfast and what a find. Jim and Linda are so kind and welcoming. When we arrived, it was as if we were long lost friends and we just met. Linda had a little birthday gift waiting for my daughter….what every 13 year old loves….a present! Ivycrest Bed and Breakfast is very clean, wonderfully furnished, with up to date bathrooms , and the very best breakfast. Linda made apple dumplings like my grandmother used to make, which are now my son’s favorite. It was a fantastic way to celebrate a birthday. We are looking forward to traveling to southwestern Virginia again soon and visiting our new friends.

Enjoyed our recent 2 night stay at Ivycrest. Very comfortable beds and wonderful home-cooked breakfast. Highly recommend!

We stayed with Jim and Linda for over two weeks and they made us feel so welcome. The bed was very comfortable with plenty of pillows. The room was well lit - with both lamps and a ceiling fixture. We had an en suite bathroom that was in the final stages of a remodel - very usable, but missing a few finishing touches. There was also a washer and dryer to use for a nominal charge. One of the highlights of our stay was the superb breakfast each morning, which always included fresh fruit and a hot dish as well. As Linda says, "Come as strangers and leave as friends."

Was the home of Jim and Linda Salyer who decided to turn their home into a B&B after all children were gone. They are frequent B&B users who know how a B&B should be. Immediate welcome is felt on entering the home. Every detail is addressed to make your stay comfortable and pleasant. Coffee outside your room at 6 30 is a wonderful touch. Breakfast is great!. All this plus the enjoyment of viewing all the collectibles, paintings, and dolls and quilts made by Linda. These items are throughout the house and takes some time to see everything. Jim has been involved with antiquing for 30 years.

We stayed at this lovely bed and breakfast while our son was in an out of town hospital for surgery. Jim and Linda made us feel so at home and relaxed especially during this stressful time that we stayed. We stayed for a week and the whole week I felt like royalty. The breakfast was especially outstanding and they were always so accomodating and attentive to our special needs when we needed to leave at specific times for hospital visits (even though we were not the only guests staying there at the time). The rooms were clean and quiet and the remodled bathrooms made it easy for us to feel at home and spread out. They were extremely gracious and hospitable to us. It was so good for us to be around people who were such caring hosts and have rooms that could be a peaceful haven for us. Would absolutely recommend far and above anywhere else you could stay.

The inn is a large, gorgeous, and meticulously clean Victorian-style home. A combination of antiques, dolls made by Linda Salyers in her workshop behind the inn, Amish quilts, and French country- and Victorian-style furnishings fill the parlor, the bedrooms, the kitchen, the dining room, and the upstairs sitting room. Even the recently remodeled bathrooms are decorated down to last detail and include soap, toiletries, and towels. But don’t let the classic décor fool you, the inn also boasts complimentary Wi-Fi and some of the rooms have flat-screen televisions. Each stay includes complimentary snacks in each bedroom, non-alcoholic beverages available from the kitchen refrigerator, coffee, tea, and a wonderful breakfast made by Linda Salyers every morning. My breakfast consisted of a bottomless coffee cup, orange juice, French toast made with fresh apples in a casserole dish (think homemade apple pie with thick bread instead of crust!) and a wonderful breakfast quiche. If you find yourself headed to or through the Blacksburg/Christiansburg area of Virginia, the Ivycrest Inn Bed and Breakfast is a must-stay property.

The inn was conveniently located off the interstate, this was a great stop on our drive to the Charlotte airport. The innkeepers greeted us warmly and allowed us to arrive late after we called ahead. They were very polite and served us an early breakfast so we could get on the road at the break of dawn. The rooms were very clean, the breakfast was fresh and delicious. They accommodated us with to-go coffee and food for the road. This was southern hospitality at its best! We highly recommend a night's stay here.

If you want to be treated like "royal family" in a beautiful home, Ivycrest Inn B&B is your destination! Our family stayed with the Salyers the weekend of Virginia Tech's graduation and Jim and Linda couldn't have done anything more to make us feel welcome. We were blessed to experience their "Exceptional Hospitality."

We stayed at Ivy Crest Inn B&B this weekend we had a wonderful time. The rooms are great very clean and comfortable . Jim and Linda are great people they make you feel right at home.

The place is beautiful you feel like you have stepped into a magazine.It is decorated so beautiful . I highly recommend Ivy Crest B&B you won' t be disappointed.

My wife and I just finished staying here. Jim and Linda were wonderful hosts! We arrived with our baby (which I'd forgotten to tell Jim and Linda was coming with us). Without asking, she made fresh, homemade baby food every morning along with wonderful breakfasts for the adults, too! The location is quiet and convenient, and the room was very nice. Jim and Linda will go out of there way to make sure you are having a fantastic experience. My wife is now worried that I will expect her to make breakfasts like Linda did! Highly recommended.

My husband and I along with our adult daughter had the opportunity, to stay at Ivycrest Inn B&B in May while attending our son's graduation from Virginia Tech. What a pleasure it was! Even though it was a rainy weekend, we had a very pleasant time. The quiet neighborhood setting is easy to get to and convenient to Tech, the New River, mountains and Interstate 81. The accomodations are excellent. The rooms are large, comfortable and beautifully decorated as is the entire house. Linda prepared our breakfast with our dietary restrictions in mind and it was extraordinarily delicious. But more than that, the Innkeepers, Jim and Linda, made you feel at home. We enjoyed casual conversations before retiring for the night. I highly recommend staying at Ivycrest Inn B&B. We went there as strangers and came away as friends. The Jones Family, Fairfax, Va.

I was on a trip with my parents and wanted them to experience some southern hospitality and wow was this the place to take them!! Linda and Jim were wonderful hosts and we felt right at home from the start. We had lovely rooms with lovely furniture and the whole house is beautiful but with a comfortable family feel. The breakfast was AMAZING! Then to finish off they took us on a tour of Christiansburg/Blacksburg which was so kind of them. I would thoroughly recommend this bed and breakfast.
