The Inn at Forest Oaks
An Alluring Historic Estate
The Inn at Forest Oaks houses a restored manor house featuring a six-guest-room bed & breakfast on a sprawling rural historic estate in the Shenandoah Valley. The estate’s century-old guest cottage serves as a vacation rental, perfect for families, the wedding party or the newlyweds.
Forest Oaks pulsates with romance and magnificence. Intimate weddings sing under the manor home's rear portico where breathtaking Blue Ridge views abound. The estate's grassy hillside wedding site is well suited for larger weddings of up to 200 offering panoramic views of the Blue Ridge mountains and countryside. Elopements nook perfectly into the estate's sunny solarium.
The 2,500-square-foot Vine Cottage is decked with modern conveniences and a fully equipped modern eat-in kitchen, plus formal dining room. All linens and towels are provided. Couples enjoy a two-night minimum stay and are encouraged to invite their family and wedding party to join for a full weekend. The grand estate is conveniently located near Natural Bridge State Park, the historic city of Lexington, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and a number of wineries and breweries.
