Owners were very jfil helpful to help our stay be wonderful. They even bought a pot large so we could cook corn I will stay there again if I’m in the area.
We all enjoyed staying here and were very comfortable. The hosts offered to help with any issues - but there were none! I happily recommend this historic home.
Plenty of comfortable space indoors and several patio spots outdoors. Easy to access from interstate and lots of parking for guests cars. Pet friendly was important to us and there’s even a fenced dog run. Spotlessly clean with many thoughtful amenities. Quite private but host was attentive by text and emails before and during our stay.
My family and I loved staying at this house. It was spacious and clean and had everything we needed and wanted in a vacation home. The hostess was very easy to get in touch with and she went above and beyond to make our vacation perfect
We really enjoyed our stay at Vaiden Inn. We were close enough to Williamsburg for a very easy day trip. The property is beautiful, and Jess has it so nicely appointed!!!!
We really enjoyed our stay. The games provided were enjoyable to play in the evenings. House was very clean and the bedrooms were charming. Really comfy beds.
We had an amazing time. The furniture and house takes you back centuries. The bed and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve ever had at a hotel or VRBO. Will visit again!
Came together with a group of friends to celebrate many things. Can’t say enough about the host and staff’s friendliness as well as maintaining a beautiful location at the Vaiden Inn. We’ll be back!!
The property is very nice, in a quite area away from tons of traffic and noise. The house is very old and has a lot of charm in every room. The four bedrooms were all very comfortable and the upstairs sitting areas were comfortable.
It was perfect for what we needed as a small group who wanted to stay together during our quick weekend trip. The property was a convenient drive to Busch Gardens! Jess was great to deal with, constantly checking in on us to make sure we didn’t need anything.
We were so lucky to find this amazing property! The pictures don’t do it justice. Beds were extremely comfortable, house was very clean and well maintained. All bedrooms had well-appointed bathrooms. While we were there due to emergency repairs to our home, this would be an amazing place for a bridal party.
Easy access off of I64. Brought 2 Golden Retrievers that loved the 8 acres of freedom! Great indoor and outdoor space. 5 deer checked us out on our return from Williamsburg. Martha's Kitchen and Trojan Grill were great restaurants!
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.
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!!
We enjoyed our stay at Vaiden Inn . It has a wonderful historic atmosphere while being very comfortable with modern conveniences . The beds were comfortable and the Inn was very clean . The grounds were lovely . The 2 coffee stations with a huge selection of coffees and cocoas were a welcome treat . Jess was very friendly and was very knowledgeable about the local history . We had fun eating at Martha's Kitchen .
Nice stop for us on the way to Virginia/Sandbridge beach. Stayed for 2 nights, easy drive to Williamsburg/Busch Gardens. Historic, clean home, a step back in time, but still with good wifi and water pressure in the shower. Nice restaurant directly across the street. Thanks
