The Gallery was mostly nice, but we had a disappointing experience due to inaccurate information on the Inn's website. The website has a whole page talking about how the Inn at Vaucluse Spring has "the best breakfast in Virginia." My wife saw this and it was a major reason she asked me to make a reservation. But I didn't know this when I made the reservation and hadn't seen the website. So when I called and the owner told me that the breakfast would be delivered in the room, I didn't think think anything of it. As it turned out, the "breakfast" was a collection of thoroughly mediocre food picked up at the grocery store--yogurt, bagels, orange juice. The yogurt wasn't event especially fancy. As a result, my wife was disappointed. The host did offer to give us a discount on our stay to compensate for the disappointing breakfast. But he refuses to change the misleading information on his website. To this day, the website brags, falsely, about having "the best breakfast in Virginia," creating the likelihood that other customers will be misled in the future. I could understand if it was still May 2020 and they just hadn't had time to make the change. But the pandemic has been underway for almost a year at this point. It could easily go for another year. And I think it's unethical for a business to knowingly publish inaccurate information on its website. read more

My husband and I stayed here for two nights. We were amazed by the delicious food each morning and how clean the place was. There wasn't a speck of dust anywhere, no joke, it was spotless, even under the bed was dust free, attention to detail like this really impressed us. Aside from the delicious food, the property is very tranquil and relaxing. They are located on over 100 acres and have several different properties to choose for your stay, we stayed in the manor house and we're glad we did. The manor house has a back porch with rocking chairs, it was perfect to sip lemonade and eat cookies (they offer mid-afternoon snacks too). I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a weekend getaway in Virginia (its about an hour and 20 minutes outside DC area). read more

Stayed at The Millhouse with my other half and had the most magnificent experience ! The Innkeepers are such the perfect hosts and the grounds are so serene. The soaking tub, the five course dinner in the main house, painting outside as I listened to music and absorbed the fresh air; are you there yet?? No tv needed or wanted... 90 min drive from Dulles airport, we loved everything about the journey. Take a break from the chaos of D.C. and recharge your attitude with ALOT of help from Vaucluse Spring! read more

The Mrs and I spent a romantic weekend here in late summer 2013 and I must say that the reviews prior to mine do not lie. The charm of this place is hard to put into words, you really have to experience it first hand. The pictures do make an attempt at capturing some of the tranquility of the Inn but alas its an experience that must be felt by your senses. The food is equal to that of any five star restaurant. Service is outstanding. The rooms and accommodations are just fantastic; the floors are clean enough to eat off of, all of your needs are thought of and addressed, and the staff are very attentive to address any concern, or convenience to make your stay optimal. We had a great time, and even though you don't get that "personal" feeling from the owners that you'd get at a smaller B&B (The Inn can host 34 guests in total) the charm and intimacy is exactly the same. read more

The Inn At Vaucluse Spring - Porch around the back side of the house - Hotels Near Me - Stephens City, Virginia

Our stay at the Inn was really something to write home about. We had a lovely time and Dereck and Tiffany were perfect hosts. The cabin was beautiful, clean and had an amazing bathtub with jets! Dereck makes an amazing three-course breakfast and homemade cookies. The property is also lovely, very quaint with ponds & wildlife. We cannot recommend this resort enough! read more

I'm apprehensive about writing this review as I'd like to keep it a secret, but I must return the favor. This place is an absolute gem. Likely the most romantic weekend you'll spend so close to DC. Check out some wineries, go hiking, ride horseback... The area has lots to offer, but be sure to relax and take it all in. We found that exploring a site and hitting a single vineyard was the perfect day. We stayed in the cabin and it was sublime. Not a single detail was unchecked; Barry, Neil, and the staff have done an amazing job putting together and maintaining the property. Dining was top-notch and you won't find anything to rival it close by. You'll be asked if you'll be staying for dinner when you make your reservation... Just say yes. Trust me, I did the research. Chef Adam and the staff are outstanding. I reviewed countless places within four hours of the DC area before selecting Vaucluse for our first anniversary. I have no doubt that it was not only the best option, but the closest. A real no-brainer and we can't wait to go back! read more

I'm not a big "bed and breakfast" guy but I have to give this Inn 5 stars. We had a family wedding here and every room was taken by family members. Neil and Barry made sure every detail was taken care of. All went off without a hitch and this venue was perfect for the wedding. One highlight for me was the dinning. They must have a fabulous chef. Every breakfast and dinner was like dinning in a fine restaurant. Even my boys loved the meals! If you are looking for a bed and breakfast in this area-this is the one. read more

Paradise found. We've been a few times now and each time we go, we discover some more charm. The real gem here is the dining. Chef Adam is brilliant and with him at the helm this place is quickly becoming our dining destination. read more

My girlfriend and I stayed here over the 2015 Memorial Day weekend. We stayed for two nights. Upon arrival and check in, Barry met us and the first thing he said after greeting us was, "Can I get you anything at all? How can I make your stay fantastic?" That is exactly the type of people they are and how serious they take their role as your hosts. The main house, The Manor House, was expertly decorated and included maps of the area wineries, winery reviews, certificates for free tastings and lots of other local brochures so you had plenty to do (if you wanted to venture off the B&B grounds). The Manor House had fireplaces in every room which were lit during dining and giant doorways which really took you back in time. Every experience with staff was exceptionally pleasant and it was obvious that they wanted to make your experience worthwhile. We reserved the Stephens Room in the Chumley Homeplace. It's a separate building towards the front of the property off of the main road. The facility was quiet, clean and had everything we needed. There was a kitchen in the main portion of the building with every implement (free fridge use, sodas, waters, ice machine, extra pool towels, etc) you could imagine....and coffee was completely ready in the morning! The room had a private balcony after exiting french doors and was exactly what we needed to enjoy the delicious wine we discovered while exploring the area. Dinner at the resort on Friday night was good. The bibb salad was remarkable! Entree used local asparagus and was as good as it gets. Upon departure, they provided a large box to store our wine so they wouldn't roll around the back of our vehicle and asked us about our stay and plans for the day. We quickly remarked that we were heading out for a trail ride. Two days after returning home, we received a personalized email thanking us for staying with them and asking how the trail ride went. We were pleasantly surprised they remembered and it shows how incredible this couple and B&B is. Neil and Barry...thank you so much for a weekend that will be hard to beat! read more

The inn is on a gorgeous piece of property. Stunning in all ways. The rooms have modern tubs and amenities, and I enjoyed a gas fireplace. Breakfast was delicious! Every bit the experience of the inn. The hosts are also pleasant and helpful without being overbearing. The staff are also great! However, I must disagree with the other reviewers about the meal Chef Adam prepared. I found the food to lack zeal and vibrant flavors that did not pair well in the progression of the meal. I also found the courses lacked harmony and connection, and each offering stood alone and unconnected to the next course. This chef is talented and can execute a solid gourmet meal, but I think the courses lacked a certain character. It is almost as if more attention was paid to the execution and technical skill rather than making something taste earth shattering or heavenly. read more

A wonderful retreat. Beautiful rooms, great hosts. Go and enjoy. The breakfast is huge so skip lunch read more

We celebrated our 48th wedding anniversary at this beautiful inn. Tiffany and Derrick were wonderful! Very welcoming and the breakfasts were so healthy and delicious. I highly recommend this inn and would definitely plan another visit here. We stayed in Gabriel's room in the cottage; very comfy bed and charming accommodation. read more

This delightful place seems to be in the middle of nowhere. It seems to pop up like a mirage. We did not stay there but did go for dinner. It was a very good experience the food and service was very intimate. We highly recommend it. read more

This is our third or fourth stay at the Inn at Vaucluse Spring and remains one of our favorite getaway Bed and Breakfast spots. The food is delightful and has only gotten better under the current management. The fact that we feel so far away only 90 minutes from DC is a big treat. Upon check-in, we can forget about everything else and enjoy this quaint B&B experience on expansive grounds in the middle of nature. The owners are super friendly and genuine and a delight to converse with. Other guests come from far and near. The breakfast will knock your socks off! Old town Winchester is about 20-min drive for restaurants and galleries. We also visited a bustling brewery and lovely winery nearby. We look forward to our next getaway here. read more

Beautiful, relaxing, well kept, friendly owners bed and breakfast. I have had 5 wonderful visits to this inn and am always in love with the place each and every time. This was our first time meeting the new owners and Tiffany and Derrick were such welcoming, pleasant, attentive, accommodating inn keepers. The grounds of the inn are peaceful and well kept. The rooms are quaintly decorated, clean, and well maintained. The breakfasts were delicious and we looked forward to the anticipation of what delicious item would be served to us next. The family is perfectly suited and doing a great job maintaining the inn. Thank you very much for the relaxing vacation! We will definitely be back! read more

My wife and I had a wonderful trip to the Inn and could not have asked for more. It was one week after peak foliage on skyline drive and the views were still stunning. I will say that the service by the owners and staff would have to be the star at the Inn, but this is not to take anything away from the location. We stayed in the manor house and thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the back porch reading and sipping cider and tea supplied by the Inn. All the meals we had were phenomenal. The breakfasts left you full for hours and featured the tastes of the season and the dinner was well worth the price. If you stay here you don't need to leave to enjoy the scenery because it is the perfect getaway with a pool, a pond, a spring, and woods. I would love to return... if I can ever find the time. read more

This inn is amazing! My fiancé and I literally live minutes away from the inn, but needed a weekend away from our kids and life in general. We got exactly what we were looking for. It was my birthday and I chose the inn to propose to my fiancé. I am glad I did. We stayed in the Thornton room in the manor house, which was absolutely stunning. If you need to just get away or celebrate a special occasion, don't hesitate on choosing the inn, this is the place you've been looking for! This is truly a hidden gem! We are glad we have a new "hide out" to run to when needed. One tip thou: Do not miss out on dinner! Chef Adams offerings were simply wonderful. Thank you Neil and Barry! read more

I took my mom to the Inn at Vaucluse Spring for Mother's Day weekend, which also happened to be her birthday! I can say this was the MOST lovely place I have been in ages -- wonderful owners, staff, guests, room, the 6-course Saturday dinner was AMAZING. All top notch! They were also incredibly accommodating to my vegetarian, no fish diet. I will most definitely be returning ASAP! read more

Just concluded our weekend getaway and this inn did not disappoint! Our inn keepers we're very attentive, the breakfasts incredible and the room and inn very clean. Will def be back read more

This place is a gem! My significant other booked us a room (the cabin on the pond room). It far surpassed any of my expectations, especially since I didn't do any research on the Inn beforehand. I figured it would be a typical B&B, but it is so much more. The grounds are lovely and are nice to walk around, the staff is absolutely outstanding and went out of their way to make us feel at home, the room was fabulous and very clean (Jacuzzi for two, king bed, fireplace, porch with rocking chairs), the FOOD (!!!!!!!).......that was the icing on the cake. I had no idea that I was in for a delicious five course dinner (with wine pairing for an extra fee) and then three course breakfast the next day. Everything homemade and absolutely delicious. Impeccable service. The next time (because there will be a next time) I'll be sure to wear something other than jeans/sneakers to dinner (oops). The experience made me feel like I was in a different decade. At one point I felt like I was in the real life version of the game Clue sans murder mystery. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic weekend, a getaways with friends/family, a place to rest your head after winery tours, a fantastic meal, and/or an escape for daily life. It's close enough that the drive from DC is easy yet far enough that you're removed from the daily madness. It's Monday morning and I am refreshed. read more

This place is a hidden gem, only 45 mintues from Northern Virginia, but you feel like you're in a different world. We have been there at least 5 or 6 times, and we love it. The peaceful serene setting is just what we are looking for to escape the DC rat race. We stay at the Cabin by the Pond, as it is private and somewhat secluded. It is as cozy as it gets. The place is clean, the food is fantastic, and the service even better. And most importantly, it is consistent and great every time. If you can go during the week, they have special discounts. Check out their website for more information. Great place, can't say enough good things about them. read more

Dined here for this first time this evening, and will definitely make return trips! This is a hidden gem of the Shenandoah Valley! What a wonderful experience--a beautiful setting, wonderful staff and fantastic food! read more

A much needed escape! My husband and I spent the weekend in the Cabin. They were very accommodating to our late night arrival. The 3 course breakfast each morning was fabulous! Felt like a 5 star dining experience! The Cabin was perfect - small sitting area, king size bed, jaccuzzi tub, plenty of storage space for clothing, and a nice porch to sit on and overlook the property. About 100yrds away there was a pond with a few chairs to sit and relax. Tiffany and Derrick are incredibly friendly and personable. We can't wait to come back! read more

If you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing bed & breakfast, look no further. My boyfriend and I wanted a "staycation" for labor day weekend, and this inn fell just within our 1 1/2 hour radius of DC. The inn it set back from the main road, so it's very quiet. We were greeted with fresh lemonade and iced tea by Barry, one of the innkeepers. The rooms are warm and homey, so you feel like you're on vacation but you know you'd not at just any old hotel. There are a variety of rooms to choose from including private cottages (we stayed in Gabriel's Room, which is one of two rooms just across from the main Manor House). One of the focal points of the inn is the large front porch that gets both morning and afternoon sun, complete with rocking chairs. I could have sat on that porch with a cup of tea all day! The food is also spectacular. They source local dairy, eggs, and produce, and use organic when possible. They are also incredibly accommodating to my dietary restrictions (gluten free, vegetarian). All in all, a very enjoyable stay. We will definitely be back! read more

Amazing B&B. Careful attention to excellence in every regard. Chef Adam is superb. Neil and Barry are great hosts and make the experience even more special. If you're the active outdoorsy type, do the Signal Knob circuit hike (10.5 mi, 2000 vert feet). It's very close and gives an amazing view up the Shenandoah Valley. read more

This place was great! Very elegant and historical. The food made it a 5 star place--amazing 3 course breakfasts and great dinners. They accommodated my dairy allergy with ease and didn't simply give me a meal minus the dairy ingredients but made me my own personal delicious dairy free dinner/breakfast. The pool was also a huge plus. Nice inn keepers who obviously cared a lot about their guests. The grounds were great, as well. An excellent choice. read more

We've been going to the Inn at Vaucluse Spring for 16 years, and we adore it! The rooms are spacious & comfortable. All have Jacuzzi tubs and fireplaces. You can pick any room at the inn and not be disappointed. The breakfasts are delicious; and dinners, under the direction of Chef Adam are gourmet delights. But the best part of the Inn are the owners Barry & Neil Myers. When you stay at Vaucluse, you feel as if you are their personal guests. We have been to dozens of inns and b&b's, and Vaucluse is by far our favorite. read more

My husband and I spent part of our honeymoon here before we moved to the area - and we're glad we did. We even decided to extend our stay after a few nights. We did not want to leave. Gorgeous, romantic, and private setting. Such a peaceful break from the (then) city life. We rented the cabin by the spring, which had a gas fireplace, jacuzzi tub for 2 (woohoo!), porch to take in the beautiful setting, central air (it was August), and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The staff is AMAZING, no joke. They respect your privacy and are so courteous. Chef Adam's food is incredible. Meals were fresh, local, and filling - sophisticated enough for the wanna-be foodie that I am yet approachable and satisfying. The trip here made us fall in live with area even more. Would love to return there for dinner sometime, as it is open to the public over the weekend with reservations. read more

I have run out of superlatives for this place. Just go (on a weekend, if possible) indulge in the wonderful meals, relax, vist some interesting places and enjoy. As you see from the overall rating just about everyone does. read more

This is a REALLY lovely place with very reasonable prices (as B & B's go). We stayed in the Chumley Homestead building with two other couples - there is room to add a 4th couple in this building. After a hike in the Shenandoah National Forest off of Skyline Drive (about a half hour away) we arrived here in the late afternoon with our friends. There were homemade cookies and local apple cider in the Manor House to greet us, and then we returned to the Chumley house where we had our own happy hour in our sun porch. There is a kitchen for refrigeration and complimentary water, soda, and coffee in this building. We had dinner in Winchester at "M" and then came back to Chumley to the log cabin living room where we lit a fire in the walk-in sized fireplace. The furniture in this room is a little bit tired, but overall it was a great setting to hang out with friends. We stayed in the Zane room, which I loved. Another wood burning fireplace, jacuzzi tub, comfortable 4 posted bed, plenty of amenities in the bathroom, and nice towels. The walls are a little thin in Chumley - we could hear our friends talking next door (muffled) and in the sitting room we could hear the guests upstairs talking (again, muffled). Slept like a rock - the quiet is intoxicating. The grounds are well maintained and very scenic, including the crystal clear mill pond, and the staff and breakfast were top notch. Breakfast was all homemade, local, unique, well-served, and delicious. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to my friends, I hope to come here again and to enjoy dinner next time. Final note: The current owners are retiring and have just sold to a young couple with two young teens. We met the husband who seems friendly and gracious. I look forward to seeing what new energy they bring to Vaucluse Spring! read more

This place was an incredible weekend getaway! They are so accommodating for any special dietary needs, I am gluten free and they did an incredible job with the food. All the staff, as well as the owners are so sweet and make you feel right at home. The rooms are great, well kept and the beds are so comfortable! Will definitely be returning in the future. The grounds are well kept and there are plenty of places to walk around, and sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet. read more

We got a gift certificate for a two night stay at this Inn for our wedding - but as it is with a young family, we never really found the time to go. When the voucher was about to expire (after one year*), we called and the Inn keeper Barry was nice enough to extend it without any issues. Well, once we finally found the time to go, the extended voucher has expired by a year - and the Inn keepers were no longer willing to honor the 500 USD that had already been paid (although we were willing to pay any difference in price that had occurred over time). Inn keeper Tiffanny actually said that they would be willing to honor the certificate but ONLY for ONE of the two nights, and UNDER THE CONDITION that our stay be for TWO nights and that we pay an extra $250 for that extra night. We found that quite disappointing - staying one night instead of two, ok. But forcing us to stay for two nights AND pay an etxtra night - that seemed quite fresh. When we asked if that basically meant we lost those 500 USD that were paid to them, Tiffany answered: "Well, you didn't lose it, you just didn't use it." So much to "mindfulnes". *Va. Code §55-210.8:1, "A gift certificate or credit balance issued in the ordinary course of the issuer's business that has remained unclaimed by the owner for more than FIVE years after becoming payable is presumed abandoned, unless redeemable in merchandise, in services, or through future purchases." read more

My husband and I stayed at the Inn for two nights over our first anniversary weekend. We were pleasantly surprised as soon as we got there - we had booked the least expensive Marshall room downstairs, but they had a vacancy, and upgraded us for free to one of the more expensive rooms upstairs. We loved the big tub and fireplace in our room, the beautiful grounds for walking, the shady porch with rocking chairs, and their three-course breakfasts. Everything was immaculate, and the owners were both friendly and helpful. read more

My husband and I had a wonderful time. Neil and Barry were professional and very nice. Rooms were clean and tastefully decorated. We went for a second visit after our previous visit was cut short by a power outage. Breakfast was creative and had a personal you. Coffee was awesome. Definitely a beautiful setting set by a spring, lots of trees and silence. read more

We have been staying at the Inn for years and we are never disappointed. Barry and Neil are perfect hosts. Alway helpful and warm but never overbearing. Neil makes the most delicious treats for breakfast. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. Chef Adam makes dinner an event. His food is creative and delicious. The staff and so attentive and friendly, it's like visiting family. We are always sad to leave. read more

This was our twelfth " mystery destination" for my discriminating friends. Believe me, if I picked a bad place I would never hear the end of it. This time, I had six other couples along from various places from north NJ to Virginia who were all given a series of envelopes that gradually directed them, this time to this fabulous inn. Not a complaint from the group! And that is saying something. Neil was very accommodating, and we had the multi course dinner that received raves. There was also plenty of things to do in the surrounding area. read more
