WHY MAKE A VRBO IN HONOR OF MLK JR?
There's so many reasons but ultimately, without his achievements, our own family wouldn’t exist. So we've collaborated with black artists and creatives in order to bring this historic home (and passion project) to our community.
We hope you’ll find the MLK Dream Home a place where you belong!

About the host
Hosted by Amy Corbett

We’ve been married for over 25 years and have two amazing kids through the gift of adoption. Our family’s story has had lots of twists and turns over the years, including the one where we stepped down from 17 years of campus ministry, leaving salaries and financial stability behind. We didn’t really have our “what’s next” plan, but decided to focus on our life-long side hobby of houses until we could figure it out.
We started renting out our River House Apt in 2018, and as we began welcoming guests from all over the world, we were hooked. It became clear that creating these welcoming spaces where anyone could belong was not just a mission, but a calling upon our family.
Our business, All Belong Co, now hosts 30+ properties and we're just as passionate as ever to give our guests a 5 star stay!

Why they chose this property
There's a donut shop across the street- what more could you want? But seriously, we love the walkability and accessibility to downtown shops and restaurants.
