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.

Charming, spacious and well-appointed manor that comfortably accommodated 15 family members for a weekend wedding. Highly recommended.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!!!

Myself and seven other women very much enjoyed our stay. We were in Lynchburg for an Extraordinary women’s conference. The home was beautiful and everything was as shown online. We hope to rent this property again next year for the same weekend..

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.

If you want a large historic home with a ton of character with a fantastic teen room then this is it. Neighborhood is just ok and it has limited street parking. It is a stones throw from downtown.

This house was beautiful inside! Beautifully decorated yet very comfortable for our group of 9 family members. Well appointed and kitchen well stocked w basic needs. Nice walk past historical homes towards shops, and easy drive to nearby Craddock Terry Hotel where other family and friends were staying. Really a beautiful house that felt like a home. Highly recommend it!

My family, friends, and I truly enjoyed our stay for my graduation weekend. There was more than enough space and the two kitchens were a plus. The house was clean, nicely decorated, check-in was seamless, and the property was expeditious in responding to my questions. Additionally, the location was 9 minutes from the university and 3 minutes from the host hotel. If you have a lot of luggage or other things to take in the house, I would suggest using the laundry room door on the side of the house instead of walking around the corner to the front door. I figured that out after I carried everything in the house. LOL!
The only challenge we faced was the lack of circulation throughout the home. Since it's an older home, it does not have central air conditioning. While the house has several air conditioner units, the air does not circulate to some of the rooms (bedroom, and bath on the first floor, one bedroom on the second floor, and the attic rooms) making it uncomfortable at bedtime. In late August, that is a huge dilemma. Maybe installing ceiling fans in those bedrooms would be helpful.
I had no idea how much we would enjoy 2 kitchens when I first reserved the house. We hired a personal chef to cater brunch for us and our guests hardly saw them as they cooked most of the food in the 2nd kitchen upstairs.
Despite the circulation issues, I would definitely reserve this house again.

This house is adorable and host went above and beyond with small snack basket and coffee. Would highly recommend. Great for kids with the third floor filled with fun toys for them! Had an amazing stay.

We stayed at this house during my daughter’s graduation week from Liberty University. When we arrived there were graduation decorations and a card from the owners congratulating my daughter. That was a thoughtful touch that started off a wonderful stay. The house was extremely clean and we loved the historic charm of the house and furnishings. The long dining room table allowed us to eat and play games together and was the center of our family time. All of the beds and pillows were comfortable and the rooms had individual air units so everyone could regulate their own room temperature. The second kitchen upstairs was useful to make that first cup of coffee and visit together before getting ready for the day. The neighborhood was quiet and the location was convenient to stores, restaurants, and an easy 15min drive to the University. Our delivery driver found the house with no issues when we ordered in. The house was supplied with a bounty of kitchen wares and we enjoyed using the large downstairs kitchen. It was easy for several of us to be in the kitchen at once. Check in and out was easy with the electronic lock on the front door. I have nothing but good memories from our stay and highly recommend this property if you are visiting Lynchburg.
