Had a wonderful stay with my husband for a weekend getaway at the Inn at Forest Oaks. Cliff and Christ went above and beyond with ensuring our stay was comfortable in every aspect. The manor is absolutely gorgeous and incredibly well decorated - we had the luxury of visiting right after the Christmas decorations went up and were able to enjoy the beautiful Christmas trees throughout the mansion. We also thoroughly enjoyed sitting down and chatting with Cliff about the history of the home and how they came to be innkeepers and acquire the lovely estate. Chris’ homemade breakfasts were absolutely delicious and one of the highlights of our stay! They were very accommodating of my gluten sensitivity and ensured that I was given a gluten free option of their cubed blueberry French toast - which was amazing. Overall, we totally recommend this Bed and Breakfast if you’re looking for a luxurious stay and fantastic experience!

What a fabulous place to stay! We spent three nights in the delightful cottage nestled behind the inn. We feasted on Chris' sinfully delectable cinnamon buns and enjoyed the perfect hospitality of Cliff. This is a beautiful inn with a spectacular view, despite the smoky fire at Matt's Creek. The Inn at Forest Oaks is a travel destination you will want to enjoy again and again.

I was looking for a nice one night stay for my husband and I as we travelled from Alexandria, VA to Pigeon Forge, TN. We found a gem at the Inn at Forest Oaks! It is a beautiful mansion filled with beautiful furnishings, welcoming innkeeper Cliff, comfortable rooms with amazing views, and a hearty tasty breakfast! I had also ordered cinnamon rolls ahead to take with us, and they were so delicious and a hit with my cousins in the mountains! If we would have had more time, we would have stayed longer! We will definitely plan to stay there next year as we travel nearby, if not before!!

The In has been expertly restored and lovingly decorated providing guests with a mix of comfort and luxury. There are so many great pieces of period furniture, and beautiful lamps, service where, antique books-we enjoyed looking at it all and being surrounded by pretty things. Chris and Cliff are wonderful hosts and we just loved hearing about the history of the home and area. Breakfast was fantastic especially given the magnificent dining room with gorgeous view of the mountains out the large bay window. The outdoor seating in rockers made for a great lunch spot. Our room was divine, the bed comfy and the a/c unit is appreciated. We have to come back to use the oversized claw foot tub! The final treat was a guests only visit to Cliff’s antique store-his taste in jewelry, glass (Viking, Fostoria) and other must haves gave us plenty to consider. We are so happy to have found the Inn and will definitely be back.

The nicest hosts ever! The breakfasts were really amazing and they catered to any and all dietary concerns. The rooms were immaculate. The rooms were also quiet despite the proximity to I-81 and the age of the buildings' wood floors. The B&B itself has an amazing history with period furnishings, each with a story. Just ask! The property is amazing and easily walkable. It rained 2-3 hours every day we were there but there is plenty to do both on-property (walkways) and nearby. There's a local restaurant (read: watering hole) close-by that's quite good too, as an alternative to driving into Lexington. The locals seem to gather there; for good reason. The drive into Lexington is short though and the restaurants plentiful. Devil's Backbone Brewery is based here, and the brewpub is a great way to spend a couple of hours relaxing on the patio.

Just spent one of the most beautiful weekends of my life at the Inn with the genuinely welcoming hosts, Chris & Cliff. Our family took over the property for a wedding weekend, and every detail from start to finish was addressed almost before we could ask. The property is beautiful, the houses perfectly restored with an eye for details not often seen in today's hurried world. The rooms are luxurious, the antiques amazing, and the breakfasts incredible! Thank you, thank you, for making this special weekend one we will always remember! We look forward to another visit!

From the moment we drove up to the majestic looking Bed and Breakfast, we knew that this was going to be a wonderful experience! The hosts, Cliff and Chris were very gracious and excellent hosts. The mansion was absolutely gorgeous, and rooms were exceptionally well appointed! Chris prepared exquisite breakfasts for everyone! Cliff enlightened us with the history and details of the Inn. We purchased a beautiful five pound apple pie and six cinnamon rolls which were freshly baked for us. Prior to leaving, we made reservations for May 2024. We look forward to our return visit! Thank you Cliff and Chris for everything!

We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend the Inn to anyone taveling through this part of Virginia. Cliff and Chris have done a ton of impressive work to the estate, and the Inn is furnished entirely with ornate antiques. Cliff is a very welcoming host and can tell the history behind every piece of furniture in the Inn. Our stay was like sleeping in a museum. Chris is a great chef, and we enjoyed having breakfast with the other guests each morning. We spent our days at the Natural Bridge and Virginia Safari, both well-worth the time. The view from the back porch of the estate is amazing. We spent evenings watching deer pass through the field as the sun went down, chatting with other guests about their day. Overall, this was a truly wonderful experience we will never forget. If we make it back to this part of Virginia, we look forward to staying at the Inn again.
