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.

Everything We Needed

We loved your home. It met all of our expectations. Quiet relaxing neighborhood, convenient to things. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable.... with the exception of the futon. I ended up sleeping with a 10-year-old one night. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. We even had some wildlife sightings. Thank you for your hospitality

Family visit

We really enjoyed our stay at The Giving House! Everything was exactly as pictured. The home was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. There was plenty of room for us to spread out, and room to spend time together. The neighborhood was quiet, and it was right down the road from our daughter’s house! The owners were responsive as well. We spent a lot of time playing ping pong too! We will definitely stay again during our next visit to Lynchburg!

Definitely a Must

Came to town, from Florida, for a wedding and this was the perfect house. My brothers and nieces and nephews came down from Northern Virginia. We all stayed in this house. It was the perfect size. The house is centrally located to shops, restaurants and grocery stores. Communication with the Property Manager, before and while at the property, was incredibly easy. Highly recommend!

Nicely accessible for Liberty University

This was a lovely property to house my family as we visited our LIberty University student. It was beautiful, comfortable, and easily accessible to and from campus. The only issue was a loud neighbor the first night--maybe in the neighborhood across the creek? It was fine the other nights, so maybe it was just someone who had a rough Friday night. :-)

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.
