NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION: Daniel's Hill is a beautiful, historic neighborhood within walking distance of downtown Lynchburg's shops, restaurants, and events. At the end of the street is an entrance to the Blackwater Creek Trail system, which provides guests miles of paved (and unpaved) walking, hiking, & bike trails.
In our neighborhood, you'll find some brick-paved roads flanked with historic lamp posts, a bustling community center with a fenced-in park and playground, sidewalks in both directions, and architecturally impressive homes built from the 1820's to the early 1900's.
The people in our neighborhood are just as beautiful and diverse as the houses themselves, ranging from residents who have lived in the neighborhood for 50+ years and others who are new to Lynchburg. On the block alone, there are families with young children, single professionals, and elderly folks. It is a "front porch" neighborhood where everyone knows everyone and they watch out for one another. We love this neighborhood and are proud to call it our family's home.
POTENTIAL FOR NOISE: The home is located in historic Daniel's Hill and has beautiful views of the James River. Also situated on the river is a historic iron pipe factory and a railroad. It is fascinating to watch trains go by on occasion and watch the workings of a 24-hour factory (a rare glimpse at American manufacturing!), but please note there is a risk for noise. Our family lives in the neighborhood and is not bothered by it, but we realize it may not be for everyone and some nights work out to be worse than others. We provide a white noise sound machine in the bedrooms should guests feel they need it.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

House was clean, beds comfortable, showers had good waterpressure, lots of space for our family to sit and visit. Some noise from steel pipe plant down the hill but only really hear it in upstairs back bedroom. Host does provide white noise machines. Nice walking trail to downtown down the street

Thank you so much for that feedback, Jody! We enjoyed hosting you and would welcome you all back anytime!
Great games and family entertainment (could use some extra batteries)! Very pet friendly and family friendly. We had a blast! Cotton candy maker was a favorite.
We were impressed with the very clean house. We enjoyed the comfortable beds, large kitchen with lots of counter space & large dining room. Our 2 college age kids had fun making cotton candy machine & popcorn popper that were available.
Cute house, very comfortable for us to stay. Safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors! It was fun and relaxing to hang outside on the deck see the downtown! Kitchen had most of what we needed, however only 2 things were missing- a pair of scissors and a working can opener. Otherwise- great house!
I rented Candy Apple for a vacation stay for my family of 13! We had plenty of room, the house was very clean and well stocked with games for our youngest grandchildren. It was a great central location for our historic day outings, and also central to many stores and great dinning options. The neighbors were very friendly as well! We had an absolute wonderful time and would highly recommend this house for your next vacation!!
Great location and plenty of room to spread out or gather and visit. Everything we needed to be comfortable and relax.
We especially enjoyed proximity to trail to walk in to downtown
and come back and sit on back deck and relax
The house is well stocked with everything we needed.
