    We were greeted by Bernie and Linda and quickly realized their love for their home and guests. They are an amazing couple, who graciously opened their home to us. The Oaks is a wonderful and comfortable home. Linda prepared an outstanding breakfast, which is only surpassed by her and Bernie's company! We can not wait to return and stay longer!

    We booked on the fly while driving on I-81 North in VA and received excellent and friendly response on the phone. The house turned out to be totally charming with Linda and Bernie Wutsburger attentive and friendly hosts. The house and rooms were impeccably clean and charming. The sleep quality of the bed (and the surrounding silence) was outstanding. We fully recommend this B&B. An outstanding value for money.

    We were looking for a place close by in which to celebrate our 46th anniversary. After choosing the location, we found The Oaks Victorian Inn on the web. The room we wanted was the room that was available. Bernie, the innkeeper, suggested a spot for our special dinner and made the reservations. Our room, the Major Pierce, was the best we have ever had at a B & B. It was spacious, well decorated, and uncluttered. The bathroom was actually two rooms. One had a tub while the other had a shower. Both had lavatories and commodes. Everything in the room was perfect including the materials necessary to plan a trip and the roses and champagne I had ordered. The first afternoon we sat on the porch with other guests as well as Linda and Bernie. It was a delightful discussion Bernie and Linda have the remarkable knack for making their home be your home and they are part of your family. Breakfast was very interesting and tasty. Bernie was there to serve us and make sure everyone was involved. After serving the final course, Linda came out from the kitchen and talked to everyone. We all sat at our table for a long time after we had finished eating to talk and share. The second day and night was just as good as the first. While there were different guests, Bernie and Linda established the family0like atmosphere again. After breakfast our second day, we left and we were genuinely sad to leave our new friends. We've stayed in many B & B's including quite a few listed with Select Registry and Relais & Chateaux. Of course, all have their good features. The Oaks Victorian Inn is the most outstanding B & B of all of these. It is a great physical property with a beautiful building, rooms, and lawn. The breakfast and always-available cookies were outstanding. Bernie and Linda are completely natural hosts who foster a family like atmosphere. We had a great anniversary celebration. Don Francisco
