First time staying at a Vrbo, and this set a high bar. The house was beautiful and thoughtfully appointed, and the location was perfect, with most of downtown Lynchburg within walking distance. Definitely looking forward to staying here again next time we're in the area.

Went to visit my daughter for the weekend and this house was perfect! The hosts were easy to contact and very responsive. The house itself was beautiful and the washer and dryer came in handy. Great location that was walking distance to restaurants and shops. Will definitely consider this house again when visiting in the future.

My family and I stayed here for graduation weekend at Liberty (about a 12 minute drive). The home was spacious and clean. All the rooms are upstairs and very spacious. Everything was fully stocked and even had some snacks for us. I mentioned at booking that I was graduating and when we checked in there was a nice handwritten note congratulating me on my accomplishment and a 'Class of 2026' banner hanging in the kitchen, which I thought was a very nice and thoughtful touch. We had a lovely stay and would stay again.

Wow!! Such a beautiful home. The thought, details, history and beauty of this property are unmatched. We loved all the paintings, history, pictures and decor! This home had everything we needed for our stay and everyone couldn’t get over how comfy the beds were and how soft the sheets were. Don’t miss out on the upstairs balcony and swing! Perfect for relaxing with a book or having morning coffee! This stay was just perfection!

We absolutely loved our stay at the MLK House! It felt like living inside a historic home and art museum, with every room filled with character and thoughtful details. The beds were so comfortable, the porch swing was perfect for relaxing, and the location made it easy to explore downtown and visit Liberty University. Knowing our stay also supported the local community made it even more meaningful. Highly recommend!

Absolutely beautiful property. Close to the downtown river front venues and activities. The location seemed to be close to the main thoroughfares around Lynchburg. I do t think we were more than 15 min drive from anywhere. We had a fabulous stay.

We needed to take a very quick and last minute trip to Lynchburg, and this house was everything we needed and more! The space is magnificent - very clean and beautiful! Communication was above and beyond - messages were responded to very quickly and kindly. The beds were very comfortable. We wish we could have stayed longer! A Mexican restaurant and donut shop are right across the street. We’ll be back to visit this beautiful house!

Beautiful home

The house is wonderfully renovated and decorated. The beds were so comfortable and the house cozy. Plenty of space for multiple guests. I think we said I love this house a million times. Will definitely stay during Lacrosse season. One of the best properties in Lynchburg.

Summer in Virginia

My husband, daughter and I had a lovely weeklong stay as we explored west central Virginia. The house had everything we needed (plus a wonderful donut shop across the street). We walked to downtown Lynchburg several times, and enjoyed daytrips to Roanoke, Smith Mountain Lake, Lexington and Staunton.

The home is beautiful, one of the best I've ever stayed in! It had everything we needed to feel right at home. The beds were quality and comfortable, the bathrooms were clean and supplied with plenty of clean, quality towels. All over the home and it's decor was beautiful (LOVED the dining room table). And the location was excellent. Highly recommend this home! We will definitely book it again.

Beautiful House, Great Location

This is an absolutely beautiful house, the way it was renovated kept so much of the character of the home, while also making you feel like you are staying in a fancy hotel. The location is perfect, we walked to all of the restaurants and downtown shops because they are only blocks away. Easy parking. And the host was always very quick in communication with any questions we had. We plan to stay here again the next time we visit Lynchburg.

Great Location

The location is excellent and very walkable. The house was very well appointed and equipped. Only real complaint was the street noise and maybe because we are used to the constant road and traffic noise all night. If you are a sound sleeper, no problem.

Charm in the heart of Lynchburg

Absolutely great property that I would highly recommend. The house has a ton of charm, style and decor that makes you feel like a home away from home. The house has plenty of space to spread out, enjoy relaxing, dining, and hanging together. The house is the most stocked house I've ever stayed in for a kitchen and appliances, with a great selection and supply of linens, towels, and bathroom supplies. Highly recommend the place, they've done an excellent job with the house.
