The initial engagement on July 21, 1861 of what would become the First Battle of Bull Run (First Manassas) took place on McLean's farm in Manassas, Virginia. Union Army artillery fired at McLean's house, which was being used as a headquarters for Confederate Brigadier General P. G. T. Beauregard, and a cannonball dropped through the kitchen fireplace.

McLean was a retired major in the Virginia militia, but at 47, he was too old to return to active duty at the outbreak of the Civil War. In the spring of 1863, he and his family moved about 120 miles south to Appomattox County, Virginia, near a dusty, crossroads community called Appomattox Court House.

On April 9, 1865, the war revisited McLean. Confederate General Robert E. Lee was about to surrender to Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant. He sent a messenger to Appomattox Court House to find a place to meet. On April 8, 1865, the messenger knocked on McLean's door and requested the use of his home, to which McLean reluctantly agreed. Lee surrendered to Grant in the parlor of McLean's house, effectively ending the Civil War. Later, McLean is supposed to have said "The war began in my front yard and ended in my front parlor."

« Our hosts were very accommodating and the stay was quite pleasant as we needed a spot that was close to Liberty’s campus while we visited our daughter. It helped to have a pet friendly option as well and the space was beautiful and modern. The bed was extremely comfortable! The rain style shower head felt like a luxury. Arriving to a decorated and lit Christmas tree was also a nice touch. Highly recommend! »

« This house is full of charm! My family and I were only there two nights and the home accommodated all 8 of us comfortably. The decorations were sparse, which I liked because it enhanced the calm atmosphere in the house as well as highlighted the details of the home itself. The stairs leading into the home were steep for my 83 year old mother but she managed them with a little help. Parking in the church lot worked very well as the church patrons were friendly and kind to us. The upstairs...

« We rented this home for a girls' weekend trip, and it was wonderful! I could not have been more pleased. It was the perfect spot to gather and celebrate life (it was my sister's birthday)! It was just as advertised. We found the living space to be comfortable for the 5 of us and the kitchen to be equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals at home.It felt very welcoming as soon as we opened the front door. It was wonderfully decorated. We did not have time to sit down by the firepit...

« What an amazing place to stay if you're headed to the Lynchburg area! This gorgeous new home is very clean, bright, great lighting, well decorated, and was extremely comfortable for our family of 7. We loved how private it felt with trees in front and woods in the back for our view. Our grandkids loved taking a walk in the woods and even found a turtle! How fun. Yet this home was convenient to grocery, gas, fast food, other restaurants and stores, and for us, Liberty University. Our daughter and...
