Perfect getaway for couples, friends or small families!



Silos have fed people for years. Now they house them, too!



First we bought a caboose off FB marketplace and created James Station (see our other listing!). And now we're those crazy people who want you to "Stay Different" in a silo house. Silo on the James is part of the Stay Different collection by All Belong Co.



This can be a romantic getaway for couples, a fun friends meet up, or a family-friendly adventure with kids. It’s sure to be a unique experience you won't forget.



Here's what you can expect at Silo on the James:



**MAIN FLOOR**



LIVING AREA

✓ Smart TV w/ streaming apps + Sonos sound bar

✓ Electric fireplace w/ color-changing options + crackling sound

✓ Pull-down queen-size Murphy bed

✓ 8 huge windows to take in the incredible views (with the click of a button, blackout shades will lower)

✓ Swivel chairs to take in the views

✓ Bluetooth speaker, games, books



KITCHEN

✓ Full-size fridge, oven/stove, dishwasher, microwave

✓ Keurig Duo, French press + coffee

✓ Pots/pans, dishes, & everything needed to cook meals

✓ Quartz countertops w/ island for dining



HALF BATHROOM



**UPSTAIRS**



BEDROOM LOFT

✓ King bed

✓ Rollaway smart TV

✓ Views of the river from bed



FULL BATHROOM

✓ Tile shower w/ faucet + hand-held attachment

✓ Built-in bluetooth speaker w/ lighting options

✓ Towels + hairdryer



LAUNDRY ROOM

✓ Full size washer and dryer

✓ Iron + ironing board



EXTERIOR

✓ Gas grill

✓ Back deck w/ dining table & lounging sectional

✓ Solo stove fire pit + Adirondack chairs

✓ Pollinator flower bed



CLIMATE CONTROL: Yes, the silo is insulated! A remote controlled heating and air unit + a huge, 8-ft fan does the trick to control 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: You will hear the occasional sounds of trains going by, distant construction forklifts beeping, etc. The factory works through the night. Some nights can be noisier 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 could be an issue, 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 by Stay Different.



ANOTHER UNIQUE STAY STEPS AWAY!: We also offer a train caboose, a 1 bedroom apartment AND a separate 5 bedroom home steps from the silo that you may rent in coordination with your stay. Look up our listings (under Amy's profile), "James Station by Stay Different," "River View Downtown Historic Apartment," or "Lighthearted Family Friendly Home near Downtown LYH".

Excellent stay. Yall thought of everything. Yes it is noisy at night but the ear plugs and sound machine helps. I'd recommend cutting the ice machine off at night too. This was a very unique place. We even got a visit from a herd of deer. 14! Babies too.
