The Blue Ridge Parkway attracted 16.7 million visitors in 2023 — making it the most-visited national park in America. Lynchburg sits at Milepost 63.7, directly feeding STR demand in Bedford, Amherst, and the broader metro area. Combined with Liberty University's 15,000+ residential students and parents visiting year-round, this is a 12-month market, not seasonal.

Only 1 direct STR turnover competitor. Market is wide open for a broker model.
Blue Ridge Make Ready is the only dedicated STR cleaner in the Lynchburg market. Everyone else is residential cleaning that occasionally does Airbnb. Nobody is running the broker model — connecting hosts directly with vetted 1099 contractors and taking a platform cut. The Turno marketplace has Lynchburg listed but shows minimal cleaner supply. This is the exact gap Clean Colombia proved works in St. Johns County.
