From Hymns to Wins: Church Stay By Caesars Casino

A mere 1 mile from the new Caesar's Casino...sin all day and attone at night at The Church of the Perpetual Boogie! Abandoned for 11 years, the CPB restoration journey has been chronicled in newspapers, on TV, and we even have a large "congregation" on FB. The Church of the Perpetual Boogie has been under historic restoration for the past 2.5 years. 100% of the AirBnB proceeds will be put toward the restoration of the 1870's sanctuary and continued enhancements to the living areas.

Good to know

In the "City of Churches" the very first house of worship was constructed on this spot in the 1820's by the Presbyterians. Later in the 19th century, the Presbyterian built our amazing 9000 sqft Gothic Revival church. You'll have access to 3 bedrooms... one was the former Pastor Study, the second part of the former Nursery and the third a former sitting room. Each bedroom has its own climate control and large light-filled broken arch windows. The primary living space is 1500sqft and served as the former Fellowship Hall. This space has a stage with a large 85" TV, ample seating, and even a bar (altar?). The dining room comfortably seats 8-10 at the 11' table. There is plenty of other seating in the room as well. The kitchen is massive and the counter space is overwhelming... typical of church kitchens designed to feed the masses. The appliances are brand-new (the fridge even makes ice cubes in multiple sizes!). The sanctuary is not part of the listing, but we can show you around or grant access at your own risk. It's something special :) ... a space graced by the oldest organ in Danville, an almost 200-year-old bell with a place in history, and amazing stained glass windows that includes an 8' cylindrical rose glass window.

Without a doubt the coolest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. I highly recommend it. The space is awesome, the beds are comfortable, and it’s close to everything. I would absolutely stay again.

one of the most unique experiences I've had with an Airbnb. Such a lovely place and I'll gladly support anyone who would rather save a building than see a bulldozed and to keep its history alive. all the luck to Jeremy in his future endeavors. We will certainly return to the Church of Perpetual Boogie again!

Amazing space to get together with a large group. Host Jeremy was very responsive and there were plenty of amenities in the kitchen, bathrooms, & living room if you forgot to pack something. Neighborhood was walkable and quiet. So many interesting features, you notice something new every time you walk through a room. Most definitely would stay here again and highly recommend!

It was super cool! Very fun, warm, inviting and comfy. Enjoyed the living room the most, complete with X Box, and the internet was fast! Our group enjoyed both dining tables and created wonderful memories just talking, laughing and relaxing. Thank you for your excellent communication!

This place was awesome! Surprised by mom with a stay here for her 70th birthday with 2 other friends. The casino was a 5 min drive and there were two really good antique malls in the area. The place was perfect! It was like staying in a Christian antique shop, but with a wonderful sense of humor! The artifacts that the host has collected are astounding, but coupled with the whimsical items, we have never laughed more being inside a Church. We stayed during a cold time and it was definitely chilly at first, but we were able to close doors and adjust the different units in each room, and it made it very comfortable. The beds were all comfortable to sleep in, even under the face of Jesus and Mary. We had full cookware available, a large fridge, and multiple ways to make coffee. Checkout was the easiest I’ve ever had at a property. The host was extremely responsive to messages and even reached out first. I would highly recommend this property to anyone fascinated by old buildings!

I want to start by saying this was an amazing location. It is massive and provides you with space to cook, be with family then send them away haha, and really it felt so cool. I would recommend this place over and over and may make it a holiday tradition moving forward. Jeremy is an amazing host and communicates quickly if there are issues.
