CLIMATE CONTROL: A ductless heating and air unit with a remote + a huge, 8 foot fan controls the temperature. For extra coziness, you can turn on the fireplace with or without heat.
PARKING: Up to 3 cars may park at the Silo (gravel driveway parking)
TV Services: Smart TV (guests use personal login credentials)
All towels & linens are provided for your stay.
POTENTIAL FOR NOISE: This experience will NOT be for everyone, especially those looking for total quiet. You will hear the occasional sounds of trains going by, construction forklifts beeping, etc. The factory works through the night. Some nights are more noisy than others, and unfortunately this is out of our control. Sunday nights and holidays tend to be the quietest as often the factory is off work!
Our family lives nearby and is not usually bothered by it, but we realize it's not for everyone, particularly if you're a light sleeper. The silo has sound-proofing insulation, and we provide a white noise machine and portable fan for your added comfort.
*You must be 25 years or older to reserve Silo on the James.
ADDITIONAL GUESTS: If you have more than 4 in your group wanting to stay, we also offer a train caboose, a 1 bedroom apartment AND a separate 5 bedroom home nearby that you may rent in coordination with your stay. Look up our listings (under Amy's profile), "River View Downtown Historic Apartment" or the "Candy Apple".
HOSTED BY: Silo on the James is a part of the Stay Different collection by All Belong Co, a local hosting team dedicated to providing 5-star stays. We will take good care of you!

NEIGHBORHOOD: Silo on the James sits atop Daniel's Hill: a beautiful, historic neighborhood within walking distance of downtown Lynchburg's shops, restaurants, and events. At the end of the street is an entrance to the Blackwater Creek Trail system, which provides guests miles of paved (and unpaved) walking, hiking, & bike trails.
In our neighborhood, you'll find some brick-paved roads flanked with historic lamp posts, a bustling community center with a fenced-in park and playground, sidewalks in both directions, and architecturally impressive homes built from the 1820's to the early 1900's.
The people in our neighborhood are just as beautiful and diverse as the houses themselves, ranging from residents who have lived in the neighborhood for 50+ years and others who are new to Lynchburg. On a nearby block alone, there are families with young children, single professionals, and elderly folks. It is a "front porch" neighborhood where everyone knows everyone and they watch out for one another. We love this neighborhood and are proud to call it our family's home.
Getting Around:
Downtown Lynchburg & all it offers (great dining, local shopping, children's museum, concerts, events, etc.) is only a 10 minute walk from the home. Uber & Lyft are available.
