    If only these walls could talk... The Buckhorn Inn is an 1811 stage coach stop that will take your imagination back in time. Each of the 5 bedrooms begs to tell stories of times past as you relax amid the convienciences of modern time... satellite tv & WiFi. Or you can relax on our huge wrap-around porch in the summer watching the hummingbirds play. Or take a walk in the George Washington National Forest and get away from it all. May be you like to shop for antiques, visit a Sheakespear Theater, visit vineyards, tour the Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library, or a mulituted of other activities in Staunton and the surrounding area only 20 minutes away. And no matter what you do, make sure you save room for breakfast because we have only one rule...you can't leave hungry.

    A great spot for a weekend getaway - the house is magnificent, our room was large, comfortable, had a gas fireplace, and a door leading out to the wrap around porch. Our hosts were friendly, accommodating, and super friendly. Breakfast was great with the family!


    Lovely B & B

    We ate the continental breakfast -- hopefully, the next time, we'll be able to have the home cooked meal.

    The Buckhorn Inn provides a cozy getaway. It is only appx 2 1/2 hours from the DC area. The Inn is cozy but not cramped and is very welcoming. The Innkeepers, Garlan and Syvia Yoder have great hospitality that is rare to find these days. We highly reccommend the Stonewall Jackson Suite. It has fireplace that will make you fall to sleep in the most comfortable manner. The breakfast was cooked to oder. Pancakes and Bacon for me. It was absolutley delicious. You also get to enjoy the pleasure of spending time with the entire Yoder family. They are most welcoming and their children are simply adorable. You will certaily feel at home and we highly recommned this great little Inn in central Virgina.

    Innkeeper Response
    Thank you so much. It's encouraging when we are reminded why we got into this business to start with. Making new friends is indeed fun.

    We stayed in the Stagecoach Room, and it was perfect for a small family with young children. My kids loved the big yard (and the chickens!). The breakfast was excellent.


    Nice, simple B&B in historic home.
