Review of the Week: Stonewall Jackson Inn in Harrisonburg, VA

July 29, 2011 18:49 by Emily

The Stonewall Jackson Inn is a restored mansion (circa 1885) in Harrisonburg, Virginia. It is a blend of traditional Queen Anne and a Stone and Shingled New England Cottage style architecture. It is located near historic Old Town Harrisonburg, and is just minutes from James Madison University. The inn is a short drive away from Shenandoah Valley attractions including the Skyline Drive, two national forests, and multiple Civil War sites. This Diamond Collection inn has 10 guest rooms, all with private baths.

The following review was for a stay this month, July 2011:

"Lovely rooms and great breakfast!"
A friend of mine and I stayed at the Stonewall Jackson Inn for one night in July 2011. Check-in was a breeze and the rooms were beautiful (I saw several of them through open doors as I was led to my room). The room was immaculately clean and everything was tidy and neat. If you forget any of your toiletries -- no worries, Wayne (the owner/innkeeper) makes sure you have everything you need! The bed was very comfortable and there was minimal noise from the busy road outside. The landscaping that has been done for this place is lovely! We sat outside under a cute wrought iron gazebo and enjoyed a glass of wine. The location of this bed and breakfast is perfect for strolling to the downtown area for dinner or drinks (about a 5-minute walk). The area was safe and we did not feel uncomfortable on our walk, even at 11:30 at night. After a good night's sleep, we woke up to a HUGE breakfast which included Wayne's twist on Eggs Benedict and hashbrowns (each dish using fresh herbs). The coffee was to die for! The staff was wonderful and if there was anything we needed, they catered to it. Overall, this is one of the best B&Bs I have ever stayed in. We will return!
