About this property

Woods & Water to Explore just 20 mins to Liberty Univ - 10 to Downtown Lynchburg

Eaton's Edge offers a smoke free downstairs apartment with exterior entrance, private drive, full kitchen, private laundry room and a home theater. With 20 acres of wooded seclusion, you can step out your door and relax next to the Cascades of Harris Creek, sit and watch deer and turkey in the yard, spot owls, bats and eagles overhead or build a campfire in the pit and listen to the sounds of rushing water and rambling freight trains in the distance. All this and only three miles to Walmart, Food Lion, Redbox and terrific pizza. Our road is one narrow mile of bumps, curves and hills!

20 minutes to Liberty University and all the local colleges in Lynchburg. 10 minutes to the historic Lynchburg River District with its cobblestone streets, antique shops, festivals, concerts, walking trails, restaurants and nightlife. Academy Center for the Arts is just over the bridge.

Bring some paddling gear and head to Monacan Park for a paddle on the James River or rent some gear from James River Adventures at River's Edge Park. Drive out Elon Road to the famous Woodruffs' Pie Shop where you can enjoy a meal, pie, coffee and good conversation with the locals.

Whether you want to launch a family exploration of Liberty University, Lynchburg and all that Amherst County has to offer or you need a quiet, private, comfortable place to stay during a weeklong intensive course, Eaton's Edge is ready for you.

***Studio Upgrade Optional: When requested, we may be able to offer you an additional studio apartment with a bedroom which sleeps 2 more guests and another large full bath. This studio apartment is completely distinct from the rest of the house. It has its own private entrance, and is adjacent to the main apartment for togetherness and supervision. This is an ideal option for three generations traveling together. The Studio Upgrade requires an additional fee which is provided upon request through the VRBO system as a special offer.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Eaton

Host profile image
After graduating seven of our eight children, we decided to make a career and climate change. From the wonderful chilly north, we packed up and headed to the natural beauty of central Virginia and Amherst County. We love the mountain views and all the opportunities that living near a major university has to offer.

Why they chose this property

The Cascades of Harris Creek make this home a true retreat. Just a few short miles from all the necessities of groceries, banking and take out, but remote and full of wild life. We love it here.

What makes this property unique

The fall foliage is breathtaking. The crazy winding road is perfect for long walks with no traffic, just the occasional train rumbling by in the distance.
