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.

Surprising find in rolling Virgina hills

What a great surprise. Found this by browsing for accommodations while passing through the area. It’s a beautiful, historic Inn with excellent breakfast included. A fine dining restaurant is available in the evening. We stayed in one of the 8 cottages surrounding the main house. Property is beautiful with hiking trails and even a historic cemetery. Staff was friendly and accommodated requests. Highly recommend! We will go out of our way to return in the futur.

A great getaway!

We loved our short stay at the Inn and Tavern at Meander! The grounds are peaceful and beautiful and the Washington Cottage was very cute and nicely decorated. The breakfast served at the dining room in the main house was excellent with several selections to choose from. The staff were warm, friendly, and very helpful. We'd definitely consider coming back again in the future.

The manager and staff were very nice. Property has great views. Food was good. However, this property needs a major renovation. I believe price is lower than others in area because it needs work. Also, being very pet-friendly appears to have contributed to furniture damage and dog odor in rugs.
