It's located near a larger much more expensive resort, but much more reasonably priced.

The hotel isn't so old, I was told 17 years old but it seems older with its classic style - it's gingerbread moldings and large porches - and it's quite cute. I really enjoyed my time here. I'm glad that I read about the lack of WiFi and cellphone service in advance so I was prepared. I took it as a break to spend time with my friends and husband - a time to disconnect. They also host spiritual conferences there, we were told. I can imagine it being a good place for a church retreat - the rates for conferences were very reasonable - advertised in the $400 range for a full weekend of meals and activities. I can imagine this business growing as the location is extremely beautiful and it's a powerful thing to disconnect and reconnect with loved ones.

We stayed in the Equestrian Room, which had one of the most beautiful bedrooms I have ever stayed in, with a homey smaller room immediately adjacent so that my daughter could have a little privacy. The complimentary breakfast served the next morning was better than any restaurant. A mammoth omelet that was as light as it was flavorful was complimented by mouth watering blueberry stuffed french toast that could have been a meal (or dessert) all by itself. Our hosts Iris and Patrick were polite, helpful, friendly but never intrusive. If you have business or vacation plans anywhere near Lexington, VA, you owe yourself a stay at the 1868 Magnolia House Inn.

From the owner: Selected by Frommer's and The Wall Street Journal…read more Today this historic inn surrounds you with the charm of an old home filled with antiques and traditional furnishings, oriental rugs, period-appropriate art, books and collections. Our common rooms and three of our guest rooms offer gas-log fireplaces with original mantels. Breakfast is served with china, crystal and silver to carry out the gracious theme. Relax in the Parlor or on one of the porches after a day of shopping in Lexington's downtown boutiques, and dining in some of the dozen restaurants--all just a few blocks away. Plan another day or two for touring historic landmarks, including the beautiful Lee Chapel-- constructed by the same Victorian builder as the 1868 Magnolia House Inn.

She knows what she's done, and she knows how to fix it. Let's see if she does so. It's really too bad also - there was so much lost potential as a result of this poor communication and unfriendly customer service - mostly just at the very end, which tainted the whole experience. I really wanted it to go a different way because I am a supporter of small businesses in general and believe I was a thoughtful guest; my approach was to be forthright and honest and correct a situation, while hers was to take advantage of the situation and profit off of it, just in case, and without saying anything up front. She not only initiated an unauthorized charge, but acted in poor faith in the way that she did it behind the back of her customers, creating a bad taste from the overall experience. Travelers Tip: Tread lightly with these bureaucratic "Karen" hosts.
