At-a-Glance Information

Bookings are official once you are in receipt of your invoice. We don’t have a set cancellation policy — just let us know as soon as possible, and we’ll work with you.
Paxton sleeps 12 in 6 beds plus a big couch (13 total). Air mattresses are welcome with notice; over 13 guests may mean an extra cleaning fee. Events and reunions are welcome — just let us know if you’ll have tents, bands, or rentals so we can help you coordinate with the neighborhood and the town.
No pets are allowed.

Check-in starts at 12:00 PM. Early check-in may be possible if cleaning allows.
Private lot for 6–10 cars behind the house (ungated). Occasionally locals park here while visiting the post office — we have signs up but it doesn’t stop everyone.
If you’re arriving late, no problem — your unique 4-digit code works 24/7, we have motion activated lights near the parking and our porch lights stay on all night to greet you after dark.

The house is stocked with coffee, spices, pantry basics, paper goods, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and cleaning supplies. The linked PDF Guest Handbook has everything from appliance tips to local recommendations. You will receive all necessary info like Wi-Fi and access codes during the booking process.
Our house is just a short walk from downtown, where you’ll find charming shops, cafés, and restaurants—though most close by 8 PM, with bars open later if you’re out for the evening. On Wednesdays from April through December, you can stroll over to the Farmers Market on Jefferson Street (8 AM–12:30 PM) for fresh produce and local treats. For more to see and do, check out the Lexington & Rockbridge County website.
- The house uses city plumbing; you don’t have to worry about a septic system.
- Fireplaces add character but aren’t usable for fires
- Access codes for the basement and Carriage House are available upon request.
- Paxton is located on a main corner near shops and the post office, you may hear some small-town bustle. Light sleepers might prefer the quieter Rose Room with a tower fan for white noise.

Perishables need to be thrown away. Nonperishables can be left in the pantry or fridge for the next guests.
If you forget something, email us — if we find it, we’ll ship it (shipping invoiced).
For broken items, bag the pieces and email us. For a spill, try to clean it, then email a photo.
