WHY MAKE A VRBO IN HONOR OF MLK JR?

There's so many reasons (read below!) 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.

More reasons:

1. His impact was an inspiration in founding our hosting business "All Belong"
2. MLK himself walked this street and even stayed overnight just a few blocks away!
3. The street used to be known as black Main Street and is named after him.
4. Our son is black and that matters.
5. To highlight black excellence
6. To support black-owned businesses
7. To tell the story that hatred doesn’t win
8. To inspire others to dream BIG
9. To educate, inspire, challenge, and build bridges
10. To give financially to local organizations that fight poverty and racism
11. His message of love, peace, and unity is what we all need to hear right now.
12. To welcome ALL

We hope you’ll find the MLK Dream Home a place where you belong!

"Dream" Home Away From Home
Our stay at the "Dream" house in downtown Lynchburg was a true home away from home. The amount of thought and detail that was put into the decor, and the upscale selection of bed, bath, and kitchen essentials made our stay even more comfortable. My one year old son loved walking the spacious downstairs going in and out of each of the rooms. We loved how much care was put into preserving the history of the structure while also providing updated and tasteful finishes. We will most definitely stay here again!

Beautiful House, Great Location
This is an absolutely beautiful house, the way it was renovated kept so much of the character of the home, while also making you feel like you are staying in a fancy hotel. The location is perfect, we walked to all of the restaurants and downtown shops because they are only blocks away. Easy parking. And the host was always very quick in communication with any questions we had. We plan to stay here again the next time we visit Lynchburg.

Excellent Home!
The home is beautiful, one of the best I've ever stayed in! It had everything we needed to feel right at home. The beds were quality and comfortable, the bathrooms were clean and supplied with plenty of clean, quality towels. All over the home and it's decor was beautiful (LOVED the dining room table). And the location was excellent. Highly recommend this home! We will definitely book it again.

Beautiful place
We loved this house. The decor is lovely! Everything was designer decorated and we appreciated all the special touches. We enjoyed the walking distance to the doughnut shop and downtown. This area is up and coming with beautiful Victorian historical mansions nearby. Thank you!!
