The house was was comfortable and fully set up with everything needed for a multi-week stay. It had a nice vibe, and easily accommodated everyone.The location was very convenient, easy to get in and out, close to shopping, and to Liberty University. Yet the location felt somewhat secluded as it is at the end of a cul-de-sac.The hosts were responsive to all messages, and easy to work with.

Great place to stay

We truly enjoyed our stay here! The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The bedrooms were spacious, the beds were very comfortable and there are 3 TVs, so we could all watch what we wanted. It was a very quite neighborhood with a small creek in the backyard. My family of 5 loved staying here for the weekend! Will definitely be back.

This is a great home, in a quiet area, that’s close to a lot!

My wife & I stayed here while we were exploring Lynchburg and it was minutes away from some of the popular sites, restaurants, grocery stores, and walking trails. The house was quiet with a nice sized backyard that was perfect for unwinding. We sat on the back balcony while planning for the next day & listening to the water & wildlife. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area.
