Circa 1868. Casually elegant in the classic 1800s Shenandoah Victorian style, this was one of the first homes built after the Civil War in what is now the heart of the historic district. It is easy to imagine that era while sitting on the front porch amid cottage gardens and the inn's namesake, a century-old Magnolia tree. Relax by the fire in the living room. Tastefully decorated and comfortably furnished guest bedrooms and suites offer spacious privacy. Many boast porches, fireplaces and sitting areas. Experience generous Southern hospitality during a wonderful breakfast artfully presented in the dining room. It is an easy walk to downtown. Equestrian lovers will want to take a tour of the 600-acre Virginia Horse Center. The Appalachian Trail is nearby for hiking.
