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.

A beautiful colonial property where many of our country's historic forefathers stayed! Very clean, peaceful, and scenic. Host Dan was respnsive to our needs. If you would like to visit a little piece of history at very reasonable rates, be sure to book a stay there!

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.

We went for the weekend and what a lovely experience. A true authentic plantation house with awesome accommodations. Staff are incredible! We had a great time and loved walking the property and enjoying the countryside. This manor has its charm and character which is the reason you come to this place!!

We were driving cross country and made the Inn and Tavern at Meander one of our stops. They were so accommodating with our late check in and providing us with a picnic dinner basket, even though it was after hours. We stayed to enjoy breakfast and had some of the best dishes - the French toast and eggs Benedict. Thank you for a wonderful experience, we will be back!

Our stay at Meander was magical! There was an issue with the cottage we had originally booked, but were seamlessly transferred to a different room. Learning about the history of the home from Daniel was a delight. Dinner and breakfast at the on property restaurant were both so incredibly delicious!
