    A Great College Visit!

    April 22, 2013

    Three families with prospective Virginia Tech students had a wonderful stay at Clay Corner Inn! Because of the layout of the inn, we were able to get rooms together in one of the small houses that make up the property, so we could enjoy the comfort and privacy of our own rooms as well as the togetherness of a shared kitchen and living room for socializing. We enjoyed walking a few blocks to eat at one of the restaurants on Main Street in Blacksburg for dinner, then shopping for art supplies at MishMish and getting some frozen yogurt at The Frosty Parrot. In the morning, the Huckleberry Trail (with a trailhead just down the road from the inn) provided a wonderful way to take a walk and enjoy spring birds. Breakfast was a delight, enjoyed by all! Afterwards, we loved being able to walk a block to campus for our tour. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer!

    Blacksburg's Best

    March 16, 2013

    We've stayed at Clay Corner Inn Bed and Breakfast a number of times over the past few years for both business and pleasure, and it is our favorite home away from home! The owners are wonderfully friendly and accommodating, the breakfast is first rate, and the rooms are clean and cozy. We enjoy relaxing in the living rooms, sharing an afternoon cookie, and sitting in the outdoor gardens by the pool. Walking distance to VT, downtown Blacksburg, and the Huckleberry walking/biking trail. Sometimes our pup joins us in one of the pet-friendly rooms, too! We highly recommend this hidden treasure!

    Innkeeper Response
    Thank you for your recommendation and the words of us being a "hidden treasure!" very much appreciated by Rick and I. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon. Nicky

    Amazing people, food and room!

    February 18, 2013

    My wife and I recently stayed at the Clay Corner Inn for Valentines Day weekend. We stayed in the Hokie Room and had the candle-light Valentine's Day dinner. Let me start by saying the food was amazing! Along with the great food, Nicky and Rick were very welcoming and took care of everything we needed throughout the evening and morning. We had never tried a bed and breakfast before staying here and we will definitely be back in the fall to visit during some football weekends. There are all kinds of DVDs you can borrow, books, newspapers, games, etc. Plus all the rooms have private bathrooms, complimentary drinks, and so much more! Thanks Nicky and Rick for all your hard work on making Valentine's Day weekend so special for my wife and I! We can't wait to come back and stay again!

    Innkeeper Response
    Thank you, thank you, thank you for your kind words and I'm so pleased you enjoyed your Candle Light Dinner & stay, especially because of the special occasion "Valentine's Day". We thoroughly enjoyed having YOU BOTH stay with us and hope to see you here again in the near future. Nicky

    Hooked on Clay

    January 30, 2013

    One night at the Clay Street Inn is all you need to see why they were voted the best B&B in Blacksburg. We have two daughter’s attending Tech and have stayed at a majority of the accommodations in Blacksburg and are now hooked on the Clay Street Inn. The owners go out of their way to make you feel at home and their breakfasts are out of this world!! Our first visit was to attend the Tech UVA game and with the parking at the Inn leaves you with a short walk to the stadium and no parking hassles. Warn cookies and wine by the fire were waiting for us when we returned from the bitter cold. We were so impressed that we gave relatives a two night stay as our Christmas gift to them. We will not stay anywhere else when we visit Blacksburg!! Five stars for the Clay Street Inn.

    Innkeeper Response
    Thank you for this review, so kind of you and we really appreciate it :) I have you and your relatives booked up and everything ready to have you return to us. It is going to be such fun and we'll do our utmost to make it as special as your last trip. See you then :)

    Home Away From Homw

    January 22, 2013

    Clay Corner Inn is a gem just a short walk to the heart of the Virginia Tech campus. The rooms are very comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. The breakfast is fabulous ... starting with yogurt parfait with fresh granola to a delicious homemade hot dish. The owners and innkeepers, Nicky and Rick, are just delightful. Whether you're visiting your young Hokie, or passing through Blacksburg, you'll feel right at home at the Clay Corner Inn.

    Innkeeper Response
    You guys are so kind :) but let me tell you, it was a pleasure having you once again in our home! We are delighted you enjoyed our breakfasts and that you felt at home. That's precisely our goal for our wonderful guest such as you two. Hope to see you again soon.

    Visiting daughter at VA Tech

    October 05, 2012

    My husband and I were visiting our daughter at Tech and we thoroughly enjoyed staying at Clay Corner Inn with the very interesting Nicky and Rick. We had our bicycles with us; the inn is very close to a pretty trail that leads to Christiansburg. When we returned from cycling, we did a little yoga out by the pool! The next morning, Nicky prepared an extraordinary breakfast. We were sorry to have to leave so soon!

    Innkeeper Response
    I remember you :) We had that nice chat on the deck after your Yoga session. You are great and very interesting people, thank you for sharing your stories with us. Oh and of course giving us this review!
