Historic Downtown Loft, Private Deck with View and outdoor Firepit

Pros: Gorgeous view from the balcony! We used the gas firepit twice, and it was so peaceful sitting outside by the fire. Cleanliness A It looked and smelled clean. Location A we felt safe walking the neighborhood, even at night. The house itself was a beautiful vintage, historical home. Crazy high 12-15ft ceilings. Rustic touches throughout. Cons: Other reviews mentioned that the bed is too soft - that is an understatement. The mattress is too soft, but also it has sinking spots, it's uneven (made my wife feel like she was tipping into me all night), and simply uncomfortable to the point we had trouble sleeping. The bathroom, while private, is accessed outside of the private suite via a semi-public hallway. The building is secure and you're the only guest on your floor, but the bathroom door is in the hallway with an open stairway beside you - For instance if you went to the bathroom in the middle of the night you probably should put some clothes on, and also you're leaving your locked suite. Lastly the bathroom is gorgeous and vintage, but it's a clawfoot tub with shower. While showering, due to the way the shower curtains hang creating a quite narrow space less than a foot wide, there is no time during your shower that you're not being touched on several sides by cold vinyl shower curtain - not the most relaxing shower setup. Even my tiny 5'2" 110lb wife complained about the shower curtain. Consensus - gorgeous but will not repeat due to bed & shower situation.

My mother and I came down for a weekend trip and the place was absolutely perfect for us! Just down the street there was a farmers market and that same night, a festival! The location of the place was perfect walking distance from everything. The balcony was wonderful to sit on after a long day and I would highly recommend this place to anyone! The hosts were amazing at responding back to us quickly and overall just an amazing place!

This was a perfect place for our anniversary! Such a lovely view from the balcony. Walking distance from several shops and restaurants! We were nervous about the tenant downstairs but we never saw him once. He keeps to himself

HIDDEN HIDEAWAY Great location Close to downtown but easy access to other areas outside of Liberty University and Lynchburg.

Birthday Weekend We had a wonderful weekend getaway to celebrate my husband’s birthday. We love downtown Lynchburg with its rich history, outdoor activities, and great restaurants. The Gilliam House sits perched overlooking downtown and the surrounding mountains. An easy walk to everything we wanted to do. We absolutely loved the historic house with its quirky personality and tidy decor. Easy parking on a very quiet street was a plus!

Perfect Location It was a beautiful property in walking distance to everything you'd want. The balcony and fire pit were by far my favorite feature. Awesome property all around.
