Introduction
"Let me live in my house by the side of the road and be a friend to man." Its name inspired by a poet, Sam Walter Foss, our historic Shenandoah Valley Inn (circa 1790) served as a Civil War field hospital. Now, it's an award-winning bed & breakfast with Three Romantic Cottages and four Main House Suites. Two hours from Washington, D.C., Richmond & Roanoke, VA and minutes from Interstate 81, fine dining, antiquing, theater, all the outdoor activities of a fine mountain resort. Visit our website for a panoramic view of all we have to offer.
Fireplaces, Featherbeds, Gourmet Fare-Minutes from Town, Miles from Reality!
Each luxurious suite offers an elegant personal bath (some with whirlpools, all with tubs & showers). And, then... there are our THREE Luxury Cottage Suites, each with its oversized, 110-gallon whirlpool tub (with in-line heater) beside a romantic fireplace! Breakfast is served daily in The Common in a manner traditional to the old south -- vintage china, silver flatware & candlelight. Cottage Guests enjoy a basket breakfast delivered to their front porch with the option of dining in the Main House. Romance is guaranteed! Come--be our guests. You are welcome here!
By the Side of the Road Bed & Breakfast is located only minutes from town but miles from reality! On two city acres with a pond view and sprawling lawns, it is easy to forget you are minutes from the campuses of JMU, Eastern Mennonite and Bridgewater College. Skyline Drive, trout fishing, antique malls, Civil War attractions, caverns, wineries, restaurants, theaters and more are all within a short drive.
