Wonderful Historic Home
We had a wonderful time at this beautiful old home. Our family was attending a memorial service in West Point and the location was excellent. There were four adults, one teenager, and two twelve year olds, so it was an excellent fit. My only regret was that family events kept us from taking advantage of everything the inn had to offer.

The house was amazing. The deco was beautiful. The two coffee stations was perfect. In a couple of the bedrooms, there was a lot of road noise. But, the ambience of the house was so perfect, that a little road noise did not interfere with sleeping.

A Hallmark Christmas
A group of 8 adults, 1 toddler, and 1 guide dog for my visually impaired mother all fit into this very cozy historical home. The whole place is gorgeous, the grounds have multiple outdoor seating areas (fire pit, a gazebo area, a deck area with a full seating arrangement etc.) and the grounds are lovely and go on for acres. There is a cozy little dinner directly across the street that we definitely stopped into. This place is less than 30 mins to Busch Gardens and/or Williamsburg (we did both and I drove). All the beds were so so comfy and had plenty of warm blankets and pillows. The tea service area on both floors had everything we needed for a hot coffee or tea throughout the day (and we had many haha). The living room area cozily accommodated all of us as we opened our Christmas presents, watched football, and gathered around Christmas movies. The owners are amazing, welcoming, and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. For instance, not only is my mom blind, but she recently hurt her foot and was wearing a boot. I never said anything or asked anything but they shifted things around to make sure the ground floor room was open for us! It was such an amazing gesture to make sure we were all taken care of. The house itself has so much history and the decor was all these incredible originals and antiques! I felt almost like I'd been allowed to stay inside one of the colonial Williamsburg homes and to touch all of it up close! It was Hallmark Christmas perfect.

Great Weekend Getaway
The Vaiden Inn offered us an opportunity to relax and reconnect as a family for a weekend. The accomodations were extremely comfortable for the 6 of us and had all of the amenities of home. We did walk around the property before it started raining. Any American history enthusiast would really enjoy this location. The house and the grounds are simply amazing. It's too bad we couldn't stay longer than a weekend...there's always next time! -The Perez Family

Just what we were looking for.
The Inn was just what we were looking for. It was liking stepping back in time. Perfect location and accommodated our family of 7. House was decorated for Christmas. Santa was able to come down the chimney with the grandson gifts. Even though we only had the kitchenet we where still able to cook most of our meals. Jess was a true angel when a family emergency arrived. I highly recommend staying at The Vaiden Inn.

A lovely inn / large house close to many attractions
We had a great time staying at the Vaiden Inn! We (two families of four, adults and children), just spent my son's 7th birthday at the inn so we'd be in close proximity for a day at Busch Gardens. The home was large, convenient, and well appointed. The host was helpful and accessible. Thanks!

My family and I were in town for a wedding and this was the perfect location for our long weekend getaway. I appreciated Jess’s patience as I had a ton of questions and just wanted to find a cute place to stay and relax. This felt like home and honestly we would have stayed for a whole week if our schedules allowed!! We can’t wait to come back!!

Wonderful stay in gorgeous Inn
We all had such a lovely time staying at this historic Inn! The included amenities were so helpful such as the coffee bar, water cooler, and ice maker. We went to Martha’s Kitchen which was right across the street twice, as they were so good! Jess was super nice and gave us all the information we needed and checked in on us. We all wish we had had more time to enjoy the property such as the outside seating area and fire pit, but we spent quite a bit of time away while visiting Busch Gardens. I would highly recommend this location for any larger group wanting to enjoy a unique stay while enjoying the area.

Quiet, Comfy Inn
It's a comfy, quiet Inn located about a 1/2 hour from Busch Gardens. It's a lovely historic place. Even though there are buildings around it's so quiet, it took us a little getting used to as we're not used to it being that quiet. Jess is a wonderful host. She is very responsive to any messages and fixes any issues asap. The Inn has plenty of space for a family. The tv's are all streaming or over the air broadcast. I thought there was satellite on 1 tv but didn't have it, no big deal we made things work. We didn't use the lighted patio or firepit. The AC keeps the place very cool. We had a very nice time there.

This is a wonderful gem of a home - perfect for groups who enjoy outdoor cooking. The propane was provided and that was much appreciated. We also brought our own lump charcoal and used booth grills. The family loved the outdoor patio seating with party lights for outdoor dining.

Comfy, cozy and clean!
We were a group of four adults and two small dogs. This was a perfect location to tour Williamsburg, visit Busch Gardens and play great golf (even in late December). The house is clean, easy to use, and very comfy. The beds, in particular, were great. The rooms are very spacious. A restaurant right across the street (Martha's) was great and Viniterra Winery/Brewery a few more miles away was a nice treat. Highlyl recommend.

Family Christmas get together
Our family met for our Christmas a week before Christmas. We checked in Friday afternoon and stayed until Monday. We had a wonderful time! Jessica was readily available to answer questions. She was very helpful and made every effort to see that we had everything we needed. The Inn is a great place to be together as a family. It felt like home. The house was decorated throughout for Christmas and had a tree up. It was lovely! The place is charming and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We loved the coffee station upstairs! Such a cozy place to have coffee/tea/water and sit and talk or play games. Even without a full kitchen, the kitchenette had appliances that made cooking easy. (There are several things that we came away planning to get for our own home because they helped so much) It rained so we didn't get to enjoy the firepit for smores and more, but we will do that next time. And, yes, there will be a next time! We definitely plan to visit this place again! Thank You!
