Located in: LYNCHBURG, VA
This modernized 1920's log cabin lakehouse in a quiet lake community has all the good vibes of summer camp while still being located in Lynchburg. It blends rustic charm with the comforts of home on a small private lake where guests can enjoy paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, swimming or just relax on the screened porch or private dock. Right off of the highway, 5-7 min to restaurants & groceries, 10 min to Liberty U, 20 min to downtown, 40 min to hiking and Blue Ridge Pkwy.

***ACCESSIBILITY***
The house is located down a slight incline and requires two steps to get inside. There are also stairs inside the home and steps leading down to the lake, which may make the property unsuitable for travelers with mobility impairments.
***LAKE INFO***
*Please note, no more than 8 guests are allowed at this home due to the size of the septic tank. Bringing more than 8 guests will result in immediate eviction*
Motors are not allowed in the lake, but it's the perfect place to bring your kayak, paddleboard, paddleboat, fishing poles, or just enjoy swimming off the private dock. There are a few floats as well as adult and kids' life jackets at the house for guest use, and we encourage little ones to wear a life jacket at all times (as they have a tendency to wander).
***THE COMMUNITY***
Timber Lake is a small, quiet community of eclectic homes tucked away just off the highway. It's so hidden that many locals don't even know it's there! It definitely has a New England retreat feel, and you simply can't match the peacefulness.
The lakehouse has year-round neighbors on both sides, and It's very important to us to be good neighbors in the community so that we can continue to provide such a restful getaway. We are strict about noise (particularly outside) after 10pm. While we want our guests to have a great experience at the lake, this is not a party house.
***EXTRA GUESTS***
We do not allow non-confirmed guests over to the house for any type of gathering, party, or get-together. Only the overnight guests on the reservation may enjoy the home. We appreciate your cooperation with this house rule and encourage guests to reach out with any questions prior to your visit. 8 people at the home is a FIRM MAXIMUM.
***PARKING***
The lakehouse has parking for up to 5 cars. (4 can fit snugly in the gravel drive and 1 under the carport)
***CLIMATE CONTROL***
The lake house is climate controlled with central heat and air. There is a thermostat downstairs and another upstairs. Ceiling fans help keep things cool in the summer and the gas logs keep the cabin warm in the winter.
