After waiting last minute to book hotel for my son's graduation from Liberty University and couldn't find any vacancy, I became desperate and started looking into other options when i found The Residence Bed and Breakfast. My 16 yr old daughter and i enjoyed our stay better than we would at any hotel. JoAnn and George was very welcoming and... More

We arrived to find the hosts decorating for the holidays and that was very welcoming. Next we discovered George and JoAnn were attending the same Christmas program we were and they offered us a ride. The home was warm, the fellowship was good and the breakfast was very pleasing. If we find ourselves in that area with a need for... More

After a cross-country journey of four days and three nights on Amtrak, it was great to see George's smiling face at the Lynchburg train station that late September evening and know we would finally get a good night's sleep! It was a quick ride to The Residence, where JoAnn made us feel right at home. We had the beautiful William... More

My wife and I had a great time at The Residence, staying there three nights in September. George and JoAnn were very nice and friendly, their home was large and inviting. JoAnn prepares a gourmet breakfast each morning - you can tell she puts a lot of effort into this. The house is in a great neighborhood, with some restaurants... More

A charming home, comfortable room and bed, and a delicious breakfast. George and JoAnne were both hospitable and helpful. I hope to return soon!

George and JoAnn were wonderful hosts! My wife and I were in Lynchburg for a weekend away, and the Residence felt like a home away from home. The house is within walking distance to the beautiful campus of Randolph College, as well as a few restaurants. The Caylors were great resources for things to do in Lynchburg, and were welcoming...

The Residence is an excellent B&B. Everything about it is first rate. The room was comfortable and well furnished. Breakfast was excellent. The hosts are friendly, very interesting, and accommodating. The location is urban and convenient to downtown, yet does not have the feel of being in the city. Like others have said, The Residence is an outstanding B&B.
