Its a great quiet and serene place to escape to, less than 2 hours from DC. It happened to be dog friendly which was perfect for our needs. Many wineries and restaurants nearby. Onsite dining was excellent for dinner and breakfast.

If you enjoy history, you will love staying on this wonderful historic estate. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the patio and looking out at the view with the mountains, the excellent breakfast, the friendly staff, and the charming cottage room with a real antique feel in spite of the necessary bathroom addition and very comfortable bed.

Pictures of property are deceiving. Furniture was worn and sparse, not even a chair to sit in to put shoes on. It was quiet and bed was comfortable enough and the AC worked well. Served the purpose to visit family in nearby Culpeper.

Lovely historic property. Sofas need updating as well as some chairs. Bed was very comfortable and linens were excellent. Shower was excellent. Bathroom needs new seat and small table would help beside sink. Overall we would love to return in the fall.

It is fun to be in such a historical property. The people working there are all so nice. Our bed was comfortable and the fireplace was fun. The property could use some renovation as well as the bathroom.

This was our third time staying at the inn. We brought our whole family this time along with our dogs. We had an amazing time. The ambiance is warm and comforting. I can’t say enough about the staff. They were wonderful and friendly and made sure we had a great stay.

Remarkable Revalutionary and Civil War history. The grounds between the Inn and the river need some tender loving care; one small wooden bridge was left out of place; maybe from the last time they mowed and invasive plants such as garlic mustard are starting to move in.

Wonderful getaway!

A lovely getaway at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Very relaxing and enjoyable - the staff was beyond accommodating and friendly as well. Dinner at the restaurant was equally as enjoyable. The hostess and Chef made it a wonderful experience and meal. A quiet getaway. We’ll go back.

Charming get away

It is so cute. We stayed in the Rapidan. It was lovely but the bathroom could use some updating. The exterior needs help which is sad because it is both historical and charming. Hopefully they will get an investor to help and make it into a wedding venue to bring in additional money. The staff is beyond helpful and nice. We would stay there again.
