My husband stayed here when we had a death in our family. He commented how lovely the room was (cottage) , the bed was comfortable and he loved the cats that lounge on the exterior. He also made reservations for 8 at the restaurant . Thank you for your hospitality and providing a comfortable restful place .

This is a historic property and was very unique old Inn. The room was clean and the owner's were very friendly especially at check-in. (Note: they do not stay on the property overnight so make sure you have what you need before they leave). The breakfast is included unfortunately I had to leave before they served at 9 so the owner made up a to-go bag for me the night before. There is also a coffee shop nearby in case you can't make the breakfast. The restaurant was excellent. The wine, meal, and dessert were 10/10. I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

Breakfast was good, no juice offered, however. We're likely not to return because in conversation with one of the hosts "liberals" were mentioned, not in a favorable way. A footbridge in the Charlottesville area was complained about and that it's only use seemed to be for protests. In this volatile and fragile political climate, we felt uncomfortable hearing these remarks. Won't recommend or return.

Unique stay in an historical building with lots of charm. Welcomed by a friendly host who showed us to our room where we found champagne and chocolate waiting for us. Spacious, comfortable suite. The breakfast was outstanding! We chose scrambled eggs and French toast and highly recommend. Easy access to Shenandoah National Park. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful historic inn. We stayed in the Washington Suite and where complimentary champagne and chocolate were waiting. Very comfortable accommodations. Lovely breakfast. The omelette with fresh spinach and tomatoes and feta cheese. So good. Kaye was a lovely host. We highly recommend and hopefully will have an opportunity to stay again.

Charming Historic Inn

The proprietors of the Inn were very hospitable and available. It was a very charming historic place and we enjoyed touring the town with the historic markers on the buildings and the park down the street. We especially enjoyed the individually prepared breakfast in the morning.

This historic Inn in a very small town ( population about 400) was a lovely respite. There was ample space in the room with a full bed, private bath and sitting area with fireplace. The restaurant on site offered a very nice dinner menu and wine selection and breakfast was served st our table and complimentary. Loved everything about our stay. Very gracious hosts.

Nostalgic, historic, quaint, breakfast is great, owners are sweet and thoughtful. Bathrooms need TLC. If you don’t like cats do not stay here. They keep to themselves but many many on property. Close to hiking. Not many restaurants near. Enjoy.

Great little inn, conveniently located near the Swift Run Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park. Our room was large, clean, and cozy with a fireplace. Breakfast was great every day. The inn keepers are super nice and the staff is great for advice on the area for wineries, hiking and other interests. We really enjoyed dinner at the Restaurant.

Great place, very comfortable. Location was great for us, short drive to our destination. Very friendly staff, easy to talk to and share thoughts. Breakfast was a real one, not a buffet that you get at all the chain hotels. Dinner was high quality and the fillet medallions were some of the best I've ever had. Thank you for a wonderful stay, hope to see you again.
