Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Picture a street off the TV show "Mad Men" and you'll get a pretty good idea of the neighborhood. This home is tucked away in a beloved neighborhood off Rivermont Ave, but this section of the neighborhood is so unique because there are a few blocks of these midcentury homes that were originally built for the executives back in the day. It's safe, quiet, and you'll likely see people out walking to and from the nearby walking trails.

Guest Access

Guests have 24 hour access to the entire home. Driveway parking for up to 4 cars with street parking for 2 more cars.

We loved our stay at this property. One of us (family) lives in town and the rest came from afar, so it was nice to feel like we had our own home for the weekend. Location is great — couple trails and restaurants within 10 minute walk. Quiet neighborhood. Downtown or the river is 10 minute drive away. House itself is very enjoyable. Amazing morning light, big living space, comfortable beds and bedrooms. Kitchen was good. We enjoyed the back patio and bonfire pit. Didn’t use the pool as it was autumn. Overall I think this is a great spot if you’re looking for a quiet base camp that’s a great jumping off point for things to do around Lynchburg
