AREA VIRGINIA UNIVERSITIES

Incongruous as it may seem to those unfamiliar with our local mountain area, our specific region is a nexus of higher learning. Nearby (1/2 hour) Christiansburg / Blacksburg / Radford are homes to both VA Tech and Radford University. Although both are excellent schools, probably VA Tech is most known as it’s the home of the famous college football team— the Hokies, as well as being one of the country’s premier Engineering centers of higher education. About an hour away, Roanoke and neighboring towns offer fine schools as well.

Mountain Song Inn MEETS THE NEED for Virginia Parent Weekend lodging right here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia!

PARENTS—attend university sporting and other weekend college events, graduation in the spring, or just visit son or daughter on campus. Stay with us, say, Friday night high in the Blue Ridge Mountains—enjoy your very scenic ride to the college towns for the events on Saturday—have dinner at The Chateau Morrisette Saturday eve (we can make the reservations for you)—spend Saturday night with us—then on Sunday, visit Floyd or one of the several nearby wineries, antique shops, or other area attractions. Have late lunch, then head for home content with a balanced and varied weekend experience.

Why stay in college towns that are jam-packed on “college weekends”! The mountains are close, quiet, and bid you the peace and quiet you deserve. After all, you’ll get all the noise you can stand when in town!
