The Neighborhood:
The lively Fan District, often simply called The Fan, is centered on the Virginia Commonwealth University campus, where the Altria Theater hosts concerts and plays. The area is dotted with grand Queen Anne-style homes and Tudor Revival mansions, including the Branch Museum of Architecture and Design, which offers tours. Old-time barbershops and Cuban restaurants line the streets, alongside bars with live music.

Colorful Carytown is a bohemian district centered around a stretch of West Cary Street, with indie boutiques, record stores, and vintage emporiums. Quirky murals brighten alleyways and buildings housing cool cafes, bakeries, and health-conscious lunch spots, while evening crowds fill farm-to-table restaurants and craft cocktail bars. Operating since 1928, the Byrd Theater screens movies in opulent surroundings.

Museum District also known as Upper Fan, the compact Museum District is home to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, with works by Picasso and Fabergé. Nearby, the Virginia Museum of History & Culture houses exhibits on state heritage in an elegant neoclassical building. Brick row homes and detached townhouses in hues of spearmint, navy, and yellow line the streets, and old-growth trees and bold street murals add further color.

Getting Around:
This location is perfect for walking and easy to find your way around. However, there are other options to get around that are convenient. This house is on one of the main bus routes if you need to leave the neighborhood. It is common to find scooters all around this location which make for easy and convenient transportation. Ride sharing is common in the area and would be no more than a few minutes wait.

Interaction with Guests:
We are available for questions by phone,text or email 24/7 .

Wonderful get away
Although I didn’t stay long, I had a wonderful stay. The bed was very soft and comfortable. The location was great as were the amenities. And I really appreciated the communication with my host. I will surely stay again.

We rented this place as it had a fenced yard that we hoped a small dog could use. The grassy space shown in photo was muddy & there was limited grass. Otherwise, the unit was clean & hosts provided snacks & wine. There were 3 adults. The double bed/couchwas convenient but uncomfortable
