The property was developed by the Suhling family. Rough House dates to about 1880 and is a log cabin with a gable roof. It was named Rough House as early as 1918, and a series of additions were added about 1935. Associated with Rough House are a contributing corn crib and Y.W.C.A. Spring Box. Hanshill was built in 1925, and is a 1 1/2-story, frame dwelling on a concrete foundation in a Rustic Revival style. It features a full-length, one-story, four-bay porch. Associated with Hanshill are servant's quarters, a garage / bunkhouse, and an outdoor tennis court. From 1918 to 1922, the property hosted the first semi-permanent summer camp for white girls organized by the Young Women's Christian Association of Lynchburg.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
