Like many other visitors, we explored the grounds and saw the house from the outside, though we couldn’t go inside due to ongoing restoration work. I’m not sure how much longer the restoration will take, but it’ll be great once the house is open for tours. The visit itself was peaceful, as we had the place to ourselves and could take our time soaking in the atmosphere. While a few areas and items are clearly in need of some restoration and upkeep, it remains a charming stop for anyone interested in the local history. There was ample parking, likely since it is closed. Just a heads-up if you're visiting early in the morning—be prepared to walk through quite a few spider webs!

I grew up around the Lynnhaven house it’s very special in our neighborhood. All the stories that are attached to it just gives us a spookiness and allure at the same time. It’s fascinating to learn all the history involved there. It is temporarily closed at the moment, howeverI was still able to get some really nice sunrise pictures and try to get a little peek at the progress which didn’t get a good chat today I always go back though this place is good for family members of any age I definitely have something for everyone. Next time you’re looking for something fun and educational heading to Lynnhaven house you won’t regret it.

Very cool to walk and look at the building. That being said wish we could have went inside. My kids went with me in the walk they didn't know anything about the place we was looking at but my daughter got anxious when we got to the back yard and rushed to leave.

I love this house! I was the first person to work here when it opened to the public . I honestly believe the house is older than 1725 because papers were found stating Ann and Seville Gaskins purchased the property and built a home/tavern on the property in the early mid 1600s. Either way , the house has so much charm and a sad yet warm feel about it. I occasionally go there and walk around and still feel a connection to this...
