    My wife and I both have unfortunate illnesses to contend with. We had just went through the Christmas holidays, which was pretty stressful for us. Due to the economy and job situations we have children back home living with us. It is pretty chaotic. We needed a day or two to get away. We found Glade Valley B&B on the internet. It seemed just what we were looking for. We made reservations, and arrived on Friday afternoon. When we pulled in I knew when I first saw it that we had made a good choice. We needed a quiet relaxing atmosphere. This was the most perfect place. It was like almost heaven. The owners were exceptionally friendly and catered to our every need. The food was delicious. We have never been anywhere that fit our needs as well as this. We will return as often as we can. We both felt so rested and refreshed. Thank You Jim and Margaret.

    My husband and I spent two nights at the Glade Valley Bed and Breakfast. What a beautiful home inside and outside; our room was so cozy. It was just what we needed peace and rest. The innkeepers were wonderful and made us feel at home. The breakfast was so, so good and plenty of food. We loved the selection of food at breakfast. The place is so clean and such a beautiful setting. We can't say enough about what a wonderful place this is to stay. We wish we could have stayed longer. We will be back to stay at this wonderful b&b. We look forward to seeing Margaret and Jim. We stayed in the Mesa Verde Room it was a lovely room. The accomodations surpassed our expectations.

    We were welcomed at our car & treated to a five star experience. We felt we were in Alaska in the Denali room! Our hosts were gracious & our breakfast was a gourmet experience! We highly recommend this B&B.

    We recently stayed in the Mauna Loa room of this lovely B&B, nestled in the mountains, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our room was the only one on the second floor, which meant that we had that entire floor to ourselves. We enjoyed the conversations with others guests and the breakfast was very generous and delicious. The room was very lovely, comfortable and the whirlpool bubble bath... ahhh! Great night's rest here. Jim seemed a bit pre-occupied with taking care of business and we did not see Margaret until breakfast the next day. Perhaps if they had focused more on hospitality, this stay would have been most excellent.

    Glade Valley Bed and Breakfast was our final destination as my husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. And what an ending it was....When planning our trip, which included 3 different B&Bs in 6 days, I had no idea of the blessings in store for us at Glade Valley. Such a sense of peace and serenity can be found by simply taking in the scenery from one of those oversized rocking chairs. In our room, everything imaginable was provided, from Bath & Body Works toiletries to wonderfully plush towels. And, Margaret's cooking....wow. Words cannot adequately describe the feast we enjoyed each morning. Made-from-scratch cinnamon rolls, raspberry/cream cheese coffee cake, homemade biscuits, and much, much more. Yet, the most precious aspect of our stay was the fact that Jim and Margaret (along with their dog, Hunter) are now our friends. Their hospitality and servant's hearts are true gifts to their guests. We hope to make many, many return visits.
