Great house, great location, & incredible front porch

We came to town for my son’s wedding. My kids and 2 young grandchildren stayed with us. Fantastic. Front porch was awesome - we sat outside 3 out of 4 nights on the porch swing. Every morning the family congregated on the porch. Easy walk to the center of town. It was everything we hoped it would be.

Amazing Home and Host

It was an honor to stay at Whitewood Hall. Our family was there for 4 nights to celebrate my son's VMI graduation and Army commissioning. The location was very conveniently located to Main Street and also is a 10-minute walk to VMI's parade grounds and Cameron Hall. The house was comfortable and spacious enough for those who wanted to relax on the front porch, watch TV in the family room, or sit quietly in the living room. We didn't get to spend as much time enjoying the front porch as we wanted, graduation week at VMI is very busy, but it was a comfort to come back to Whitewood Hall to make a quick lunch or a snack, and then head out back to VMI for the rest of the day. The kitchen was spacious and worked well for us. The beds were comfortable, everyone slept well. The yard was gorgeous and very green, many different kinds of birds were out throughout the day. Even a deer ran through the front yard one evening, it was a beautiful sight. Donna was attentive and answered questions we had right away. We had a memorable and blessed stay!

Mid-June Lex Visit for W&L Maze Program

We (family of 5 - 2 adults, 3 teens) rolled into Lexington on a Thursday evening and stayed through Sunday. The home was lovely and the convenience of walking distance was fabulous for us to come and go, dine and sight see, walk to W&L Campus, etc. Plenty of room for more - as we were hoping another couple and their son were joining us - home would easily have accommodated 2 more adults and another teen. Beds were comfortable, kitchen / living area wonderful and front porch made for a relaxing retreat! As my husband and I are W&L alums, hope to re rent for reunions and other events in the future!! Owners and local friend very easy to reach with any questions we may have had, overall 10 stars if I could!!

This is an amazing, well appointed, beautiful home. We enjoyed coffee and cocktails on the front porch, cozy family room connections with old friends, meals via the upgraded kitchen, and good nights rest in the comfy beds. This is our favorite home in Lex and where great memories are made. Hosts are responsiveness and Anna-Lisa was so very helpful at check in and throughout stay. Thanks for sharing your home.

Perfect place!

Our family stayed at this lovely home for our son’s July wedding weekend in Lexington. It was great for all of us to be together, yet have room to spread out. The home had everything that we needed and we enjoyed all of the spaces… the charming front porch, the lovely living room, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable family room. It was nice to have a first floor bedroom for grandparents. Upstairs bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. On wedding day, our son and his groomsmen enjoyed lunch together at the big table in the back room, then dressed in the large dining room with mirrored armoire! It was perfect! Our only issue was that the sunroom (with trundle) where I had planned for our young grandson to sleep is not air conditioned and on a hot July weekend, the room never cooled off, so we had to make a bed for him on the floor in another bedroom. Just be mindful of number of beds needed and time of year. Owners were lovely to work with and accommodating. We would definitely choose Whitewood Hall again. It was a perfect place!

This house in downtown Lexington was the perfect space for my family as we gathered for a memorial service. The historic house is beautifully renovated and decorated, very clean, and is well stocked. Perfect location to walk to shops and restaurants and a relaxing front porch with ceiling fan to keep you cool on summer evenings. Hope to stay again! .
