The property is really unique. We liked it and highly recommend.

I loved being surrounded by beauty. I loved the lodge feel and our spacious bedroom. The owners were wonderful. The breakfasts were good. I would’ve loved to stay longer. It would be a great Fall vacation

Very nice property in a very quiet location. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Will be planning a future visit.

N/A

It's not really the owner's fault at all but the place is built on a rather treacherous bit of mountainside in the Shenandoah. The website doesn't really give much warning about this and there isn't any sort of guardrails. There is a hell of a 'pucker factor' getting to and from the location as it's just one lane. But once you get there- My GOSH! So beautiful-- so inviting.. and so, so so sooo cozy! Makes it all worthwhile!! As I said before, unless a millionaire wants to donate $$$$$$ for them to build a two lane bridge connecting the property to the hardball, not too much to be done!!

The Sugar Tree Inn was relaxing and peaceful. Nice variety of snacks and drinks for purchase. Several seating areas inside and out. Pretty view from the porch and new upper level deck. We even spent time in the loft reading a book. Loved everything about this Inn. Especially the owners. Great people. We will be back again sometime.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience at the Sugar Tree Inn! We were celebrating our 41st wedding anniversary and enjoyed exploring Lexington, Staunton and Crabtree Falls! The breakfasts were fantastic and the staff so friendly. We will definitely consider returning!

We had a great time. The owners of the inn were really friendly. The evening meal was very good. If you like to stay in a nature setting near a lot of outdoor events. This is the place.

Amazing venue all around! Bonus- they’re Minnesota nice!

Wish we could have stayed longer

Everything was perfect for us. Beautiful and charming inn and setting. The innkeepers are hospitable, and we were able to arrange dinner options for when we arrived. The inn is well equipped for whatever you need. We really enjoyed the fireplace in our spacious room and the super comfortable bed. Breakfast was yummy and plentiful.

Cant wait to go back

Absolutely amazing from start to finish, staff was awesome, lodge was phenomenal, could not have asked for a better place to stay

An awesome get away

Our stay at the Sugar Tree Inn was amazing! The food was great and we loved the cabin accommodations. Kevin and Brenda were very hospitable and the setting in the mountains is beautiful. I would highly recommend the Sugar Tree Inn!

This is a true gem of a place!! We loved it and would definitely stay there again!!

It made you feel cozy and at home. Love the quiet and everyone seems relaxed.

This hotel is located in the middle of the mountains with great views, clean rooms, and good food at the restaurant. It's a great "un-plug" place, no TV or wifi.

Lo

The inn was quiet and beautiful! The fireplace was perfect and the thoughtful touches at the Tavern were much appreciated.

My wife and I stayed in the Crab Tree Falls room in the main cabin. The place was really nice and cozy. Every night the Owner turned on the main fire place and we could sit in front of the fire. The kitchen was convenient for us to get coffee in the morning and also get other drinks and snacks at our leisure. They cook breakfast every day and it was very tasty. Dinner is optional at a cost on the weekends, and we had other plans so we never did get to try the dinner. Other guests said the dinners were amazing though. The Owner's were very nice and seemed to be there without being there too much. The driveway is steep so be prepared! We were only a few minutes away from the Crab Tree Falls hike along the waterfalls so we did that one day. Also, it is very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. There are no TVs. At first we weren't sure about this, but actually came to like it very quickly. We loved this place and will definitely be back again.

This was a getaway for my wife and I and it was absolutely perfect. We stayed in St. Mary’s cabin and it was everything we could have asked for. Kevin and Brenda were great hosts. Breakfast was great, very balanced and didn’t make us feel bloated. We had dinner there one night and it was good. They were well stocked on all different types of drinks, but the cold brew, which is free, was my wife’s favorite. There is not Wi-Fi, which is what we wanted, but we had cell service in case of an emergency. Overall, great place to stay, great hosts and great views.

A beautiful Inn in a beautiful area. The owners are “over the top” nice people. We really loved our stay.

Kevin and Chef Gerry were excellent host, from the moment we pulled into the drive way until we left to go home. The St. Mary's Cabin was the perfect room for my granddaughter and me. Clean, comfortable, charming and a great view. Dinner and breakfast were outstanding and they both went out of their way to make out meals great and enjoyable. Great time was had by all! We will be back! Thank for the great weekend!

Fabulous

Fabulous stay. Friendly and comfortable.

Not as advertised.

The stay was nice. However, I booked this mountain stay because they listed fireplaces and had Wi-Fi. Their fireplaces are not functional and the do not have Wi-Fi. i would not have stayed here if I had known these things. I am disappointed that your website did not have up to date information about this hotel.

Cozy, clean, warm and very attentive staff. A real gem

The room we stayed in was fantastic. Very comfortable and well appointed. Yes, the driveway is a bit tricky, and I wouldn't want to drive it in the winter, but it wasn't THAT bad. It has excellent access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, which was our #1 reason for choosing the inn, but now we will return just because it is so nice : ) Bring your own WiFi hotspot!

Great relaxing getaway

Great spot, owners were friendly and helpful. Food was great. Wish we had a longer stay. We will definitely go back. Bed was very comfortable. Very relaxing atmosphere. Loved sitting on the front porch watching the humming birds.

Nice cabin feel to the room

A wonderful ski lodge /country manor vibe in the woods between the Blue Ridge Parkway and the interstate -- yet in a world of its own. New management and upcoming and ongoing upgrades, but it is already a very special place to enjoy the mountains. Great breakfast but check on other meals -- lunch/dinner not available every day.

Very secluded, yet close to Blue Ridge parkway and other local sites. The perfect getaway ftom todays hustle and technology.

What a wonderful place to stay for a long weekend! The fall foliage was wonderful, and the crisp nighttime air offered the perfect reason to light the wood fireplace in the room. Our room was spacious and quiet. The hosts were very accommodating, and had wonderful meals. It's not the easiest place to get to; the winding and sometimes steep and narrow roads leading to the house must be a real challenge in non-ideal weather conditions. Nonetheless, you're rewarded in the end with a wonderful experience!

Fabulous getaway

Our second stay. Beautiful getaway and they happily accommodate any requests! Friendly, welcoming, incredible breakfast, gorgeous location.

Sugar Tree Inn was a very pleasant experience.

This is best place on our vacation!

This beautiful Inn was an escape and a much needed vacation! The breakfasts were delicious, the hosts helpful and friendly, the location stunning, and the rooms rustic and comfortable. The many hummingbirds flying to the feeders on the front porch were breathtaking to watch. This place is a little bit of heaven on earth and we can’t wait to go back again! Use their website to plan your activities-it’s a comprehensive list with tons of information.

Very cozy place! The owners were very accommodating! We will return!

the people that owned it we're awesome it was very cozy and had a fireplace and they brought us would

This was an unbelievable find, a real gem. The cottage rented was spacious And delightful. Will return!

We stayed in the main lodge. Really nice place. Owners were very friendly and helpfull. It sits way back in the woods. Breakfast was very good both days. Would like to go back some day.

We had an amazing, albeit short, stay. We will return to enjoy the beautiful setting and the warm hospitality.

Great hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Peaceful location with wildlife on the doorstep and the room had plenty of book and puzzles for the whole family if you fancy a lazy time.

Wonderful gracious hosts

This is an exceptional place if you want a quiet restful retreat to decompress.

Quiet and peaceful. Great to get away from technology. Owners were extremely friendly. Would go back to actually enjoy the things around the inn like the hiking

Wooded mountain setting wonderful. Once i got used to drivway was fine. I am not used to driving in mountainous settings, that said, mountains was why i came. I will come back soon.

The BEST place!

Love, love, love this place and will be returning! It's my kind of place - rustic chic, warm, inviting, peaceful, quiet, etc. We stayed in the Cyrus McCormick room and loved the wood burning fireplace and the very comfortable bed. No TV or internet, but that did not bother us. The next morning, three deer were just off the patio calmly looking at us. The breakfast was awesome and the main lodge is beautiful! The host, Russell was so charming.

Convenient/Cozy Stay Right off the Blue Ridge Pkwy

The Sugar Tree Inn was a super convenient stay right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. The lodge and buildings are very homey and a perfect night's respite after a long day of hiking and driving along the Blue Ridge Parkway. I highly recommend the weeknight picnic baskets for a fun, cozy choice to dine in your room or on your patio. I would have tried the dinner special which also looked appealing had we come on the weekend. There is also a nice walk at the end of the property to "stretch your legs" as the innkeeper so aptly put it, that is a nice excursion into the woods. The driveway is fairly steep so I recommend coming in a vehicle that can handle it. This is a very cozy stay and worth the trek.

Kelly was amazing, great service, beautiful location!

Anniversary

The Sugar Tree Inn was a little gem in the woods! The hosts (Kelly and Russ) were AMAZING! Wonderful food, accommodations, and atmosphere. Could not have asked for a better way to spend our 10 year wedding anniversary!

Magnifique séjour

L’endroit est calme est reposant. Le petit déjeuner était parfait et la chambre très confortable et spacieuse. 10/10 pour cet établissement.

Site très intéressant pour les amants de la nature
