Beautiful place for move-in week!

Very spacious and comfortable, with a play room upstairs that we had a ping pong tournament the night before move-in! Plenty of parking on the side street! A+

Spacious and comfortable house

Liberty University Graduation
Stayed four nights with a crew of family from all over. AWESOME place with room for everyone. House was beautiful and kitchen was well-stocked. Parking was a bit tricky, but doable. House was minutes from downtown and about 15 min from campus. Host was gracious and prompt in answering questions. Highly recommended😁

40th anniversary celebration
We gathered with our 3 children, their spouses, and 3 grandchildren to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We had an intimate renewal of vows with immediate family and this home provided the perfect space not only for our ceremony but for all the usual fun of being together. great space for sharing meals, playing with the littles, relaxing and hanging out. Since our now grown children grew up in Lynchburg they found it a great location to explore their hometown. Easy walk to park and playground, short trip to downtown light display, farmer's market, etc. Would absolutely recommend this home for family gathering.

Wedding weekend
Staying in this historic, very large home was exactly what we needed to make our daughter’s weekend wedding even more special. Several dear family friends stayed there with us so we had a mini- reunion as well! And my daughter and her new husband gathered with us there in the beautiful spaces the day after the wedding to spend just a little bit more time with dear family and friends who had traveled from out of town. In their instruction book at the front door of the home, Jennifer and her husband describe their desire for their home to be your home away from home. It truly was and so much more! It’s very large so there’s plenty of room. The second kitchen was a wonderful asset to our friends with small kids staying in the second floor. The play space upstairs was so great to have-it was perfect! I highly recommend Jennifer’s place! And Lynchburg is a wonderful town—you are close to the historic downtown with great restaurants and coffee shops.

Beautiful home
The property was beautiful and clean. Everything stated was provided. The check in process was easy and we had no issues. The location was close enough to Liberty University for our family during our trip. The neighborhood did not reflect the beauty of the property, but the size and layout were perfect for both families.

Family time and bridal shower
We spent the weekend in this unique and lovely home with our large family and we also hosted our daughter's bridal shower here. The home is lovely and spacious, decorated beautifully, and very comfortable! Our host, Jennifer, was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and communicative. We would absolutely rent this home again for future family events in the area. We could not have asked for more! It was a wonderful stay for our family of all ages!

Fantastic Family Home
This beautiful home served the family well for a memorial service for a relative. The house’s furnishings and decor blend well with the history of the residence. The beds were quite comfortable and the comforters provided warmth for the cool winter evening. Local family members visited with family since the home was quite spacious allowing family game time and conversation areas while younger children played upstairs in the third floor game room. All guests appreciated the roomy spaces and lovely decor.

Wedding weekend!
The house is beautiful! It also had everything we needed! We had some heat issues but they were quickly addressed. We had 10 adults - 3 generations - for a wedding at Glass Hill Venue in Goode, VA. It worked out perfectly! The neighborhood is a little sketchy but we never felt unsafe. We rented the separate cottage for the bride and groom! So overall, there were 12 of us between the 2 properties. So much better than a hotel!!!

Lovely Historic Home
We came into town for our children’s graduation from Liberty University. This house was perfect for our large family to all be in one place, but still have room to spread out. Great communication with the host, and knowing that we were coming in for a graduation, they left some decorations on the kitchen island. Very nice! We really enjoyed our stay, and will definitely stay again the next time we come to Lynchburg.
