By the Side of the Road Inn & Cottages

"It's one of the loveliest places we've ever stayed. There's a see-through fireplace warming both the bedroom and the bathroom, robes, coffee, beautiful, all the amenities. Close to Washington DC and National Forest. It was really perfect."

"I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay in the Magnolia Cottage. We knew before leaving home that the weather was bringing a winter storm, and called to request a different cottage than the one I booked, so that we would have a fireplace on the same level as the main living space. Jesse was quick to respond, and able and happy to accommodate my request. All the touches were perfect - champagne in our fridge, a welcome note, an incredibly comfortable bed and a two-sided fireplace. The cottage was romantic and comfortable, nicely decorated and spotless. We were able to comfortably hunker down for the majority of the weekend - which was actually what we both desperately needed. We appreciated the mini kitchen and wet bar - and took advantage of them more than we may have if the weather had been good. The hosts were friendly, responsive and helpful. Honestly, if you are thinking about a weekend getaway at this Inn, just DO it. We know for certain we will go back. Thank you!!"

"My wife and I just got back from here. We were celebrating 2 years of marriage. The owners are very friendly. Beautiful location and the Christmas lights on the main house were beautiful. We loved the tub with fireplace and comfortable bed. We will definitely be back!"

"We really enjoyed staying at Anna and Jesse’s inn. The studio suite was so beautifully designed. The beds are very comfortable. The rain shower was lovely. It is so quiet and clean. For great Italian food enjoy Vito’s."

"We had a really lovely overnight stay at one of the cottages here. The owners were lovely via text and email, sending the code and generally communicating well to set the expectations for the check in and parking, etc. The bed was lovely and the soaking tub was incredible - we both fit! Overall a really lovely stay, and I'd definitely go back."
