This was the most special place that I have ever been (and I have been to a lot)! If I only had three words to describe this experience, they would be Excellence, Beauty, and Kindness. My husband and I went for a two-night anniversary get-away on February 29. When we arrived, the staff greeted us warmly and our room was ready. They took us on a short tour of the Inn, gave us a sparkling cocktail, then showed us our building called The Carter House, where our room was ready and waiting. We cleaned up and headed over to the main building for tea. I have a severe allergy to tree nuts and peanuts and they couldn't have handled it any better. At the first opportunity during tea service, the staff assured me that all was prepared and it was. My portion was separate from my husband's and was 100% nut free. This continued throughout our stay. Clearly they have coordinated across all staff for such things. Cameron, the tea expert and "cheese whiz", provided an optional 4:00 pm tour of the grounds and buildings. While his goal was to be informative, he was both charming and sweet. He shared the history of Chef Patrick - from humble beginnings to 3 stars - truly inspirational. Cameron's story illustrated how intentional Chef's journey has been. It was clear from our visit that the culture was one that while rewarding excellence, it also provided support, education, and most noticeably kindness. Kindness for each other as well as their guests. We enjoyed the Gastronaut's Menu on our first night. If you go, I suggest one of you get the "Apparently a Pear" dessert and the other get the cheese selection. Cameron is the resident cheese expert and he and Faira the cow deliver your cheese to the table. (Not to be missed!) During the day, we drove to the Shenandoah National Park and enjoyed the views. Check opening hours and plan accordingly. Chef and his team will pack a picnic lunch and if weather permits you could enjoy it there. On our second night we ate at Patty-O's - Chef's new casual dining restaurant. Of course, it was delicious. I had Julia Child’s Beef Bourguignon and my husband had their scallops. A fire was burning in the dining room fireplace giving a lovely glow to the room. We had a chance to meet Andre LeTendre - another lovely person who seemed genuinely happy to talk with us. House breakfast each morning was a yogurt with granola and berries, breads, coffee, juice selections (served in a 4-glass flight). While I didn't need it, I added an omelette on my first morning - and wow, it did not disappoint. Seriously the best omelette I have ever had. On the second day, for guests that stay two nights, there is a special oatmeal souffle that I'm still dreaming about. Yes, its pricey - but its worth every penny or more.
