Great home

This is a great home. Old home that has been very tastefully redone. Love the old charm mixed with the modernization. Very clean, comfortable place. The beds are super comfy. We came to town to visit LU with our daughter (17) and son came along as well (13). We all were impressed with the house. The neighborhood is an older one where some of the homes have been redone and some are still needing some work. But it’s in a great location to downtown, LU , and some of the other colleges in the area as well. We would stay here again.

Lovely Historic Home

We greatly enjoyed our time in this charming historic home. The neighborhood is quaint and quiet. The decor is lovely and the house is very clean. There are two beds, one with a firm mattress and the other is soft. (The upstairs master bathroom does get a little chilly in the morning.) Cozy study nook upstairs was perfect for work or school. We loved the variety of dining options that were so close by. The owners were very responsive and friendly. Highly recommend!

We stayed for a long weekend while my daughter danced in the Nutcracker downtown. The location was great - close to downtown, as well as biking trail by the river. We love the bagel shop! And the Christmas tree made us feel at home.

Cozy Historical Gem

We loved our stay so much. We moved our daughter into her dorm at Liberty, and this home was such a little oasis while we were in Lynchburg. We loved all the historical charm of the home. So many cute fireplaces all throughout the house! Beautiful details that only come with old homes. I must say the king bed in the master bedroom was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Perfect!

Just returned from a weekend stay at this beautiful home. Although, being there for a nearby family reunion, we didn’t have a chance to explore the area, the location seemed perfect for doing just that! The description and pictures of the property are completely accurate. The beds were so, so comfortable, the house was very clean, and the AC kept us super cool during a hot weekend. The hosts provided a welcome basket of snacks, coffee pods and creamers, which was so appreciated after a long day of travel and a late arrival. Communication with the host was amazing…the best we’ve ever experienced, with nearly immediate answers to our questions. If you need a wonderful place to stay in the Lynchburg area, stay here! We just hope you don’t book it during the time we want to stay again! Haha!

Renovated Home in Historic District of Lynchburg

My daughter and I visited my son who is attending medical school in Lynchburg. The home was just as it appears online and fully furnished with everything we needed. The beds were a highlight and so comfortable with plush linens. We hosted a brunch for a few friends, and there was plenty of room for all. Loved it, and can't wait to go back!

A perfect getaway

What a treat to stay in a beautiful historic home! This house has everything you need for a comfortable and easy getaway. The beds (even the pull out sofa) are very comfortable and the bedding is beautiful and cozy. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to cook in. Our favorite part was the porch. We spend a lot of time sitting out there and enjoying the beautiful historic neighborhood views. Our son is planning to attend Liberty University so we will definitely stay here again when we visit him! The bagel shop down the street was a fantastic bonus too!

Convenient, cozy and so charming

This home has been beautifully renovated. It is so charming. It was a great location for me as I visited my mother who lives off of Rivermont Ave. The bed was so comfortable, I could have slept forever. I so appreciated the snacks in the kitchen. I had a very long day on my check-in day, so they ended up being my dinner. I had everything I needed, including coffee with creamer and sugar, shampoo, conditioner and body wash.

Stay in Lynchburg

We had a great time staying at this beautiful house in downtown Lynchburg! The house was very well maintained, nicely decorated and very clean! The kitchen had everything you could need for a weekend away. The only improvement which I would suggest is that gravel driveway had a very steep bump to get up in our VW Golf and could possibly use a curb corrector. But it was easily avoided since there was street parking on the other side of the house. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and recommend staying here to anyone visiting Lynchburg!
