May 01, 2013
My wife and I enjoyed ourselves throughly. The setting is quite inviting and spiritually warm. We did not have a chance to meet Heidi, but did get to meet David. The cabins were that great to stay in. We didn't really need to roam around much. Hopefully, an opportunity will present itself for a future visit.

5 out of 5The cabins truly are a wonderful, couple-centered retreat
April 24, 2013
My husband and I stayed in one of the new cabins over the past weekend and words cannot adequately convey how amazing this place is - the setting is beautiful, it is close enough to everything you want to do, but far enough away that you feel such peace. Dave, Heidi, and dog Katie make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. Breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. The cabins are like adult treehouses – private screened decks looking west for amazing sunsets (including screening under the deck – whoever thought of that is a genius!), welcoming Jacuzzi, comfortable bed, fireplace, TV with Dish Network, a full kitchen and coffee maker, as well as a bathroom with heated floors. The cabins truly are a wonderful, couple-centered retreat. We really didn’t want to leave and we will definitely be back!
5 out of 5Inviting, warm, relaxing
April 14, 2013
My husband and I began our 40th anniversary road trip at The Iris Inn. We were warmly greeted by Dave & Heidi and their border collie Katie. Upon entering the inn, we couldn't help but smell the freshly baked chocolate chip cookies that are available at any time of the day...or nite! Our room, the Pine Room is more beautiful & inviting that we could have imagined. We had a spectacular view of the valley and mountains from the porch right out our door. It was a bit chilly so we really didn't get to enjoy sitting on the swing...taking in the vistas...this time! There most definitely will be a next time. We've never experienced such warm hospitality at a bed and breakfast. Pleasant conversation by a warm fire with a glass of wine - it doesn't get much better than that! Breakfast was delicious as well. We highly recommend The Iris Inn!
4.6 out of 5.A diamond in the woods - B&B!
April 13, 2013
A perfectly delightful getaway - even on a cool, dreary weekend before anything was in bloom. Would be fabulous late spring, summer and fall. Close enough to Staunton for special dinners. The couples massage was heavenly. The picnic was top of the line. A beautiful lake in the National Forest just down the road. Our hosts were so helpful. Try the cottages for a romantic getaway all year long.
4.8 out of 5Wonderful weekend
April 07, 2013
My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at the Iris Inn. Our room was spacious, tastefully decorated and very very comfortable. We loved the main room, and we wished we had built in a little more time during the day to just hang out at the Inn on one of the many decks/patios - the day beds would be a great place to hang out and take in a little nature. Owners Dave and Heidi were very friendly and welcoming. Breakfasts were terrific too. Wonderful experience all around.
