My husband, 12 year old son and I just returned from a three night stay at High Meadows Vineyard Inn and had a wonderful experience. We are seasoned B&B travelers, and would be hard pressed to find a more pleasant setting or a more accommodating staff. Two couples do indeed own High Meadows and we met all of them and found them delightful (along with Kevin, the son of Peter and Jae, who serves as one of the innkeepers). We ate there two of the three nights and found the food to be excellent, and the prices reasonable for the quality (and quantity) of food served. Terry, the chef, was very accommodating at creating vegetarian dishes for me and our son, and Kevin suggested some wonderful Virginia wines to accompany our food. Breakfasts were always two courses and very hearty and delicious. We stayed in the Scottsville suite in the portion of the inn that dates backs to 1832, and found our accomodations to be spacious and comfortable (although the stairs were a little steep.) Our son, Nick, played horseshoes outside, visited the horses on a neighboring property, and enjoyed playing chess with my husband in the evening. Our innkeepers were helpful in supplying directions to nearby attractions (Monticello, Ashlawn, Michie Tavern, Montpelier, and UVA) so the three days we spent there flew by. I'm not sure what the other reviewer's problem was, but I thought that it was not a very helpful or accurate review since our experience at High Meadows was completely different. We found it to be a wonderfully friendly inn and would certainly consider returning in the future.
