Recently my wife and I had the pleasure of staying at the York River Inn for a few nights. We had not previously stayed at a B&B before, but being the adventurous sort, we decided to give it a shot as we had to make the trip for my sisters college graduation. We were very happy with the decision. Great... more

My wife and I stayed a the York River Inn for her birthday. I wanted to give her a romantic and relaxing getaway for her birthday. This far exceeded what I had hoped for. Bill was an entertaining and engaging host with lots of interesting facts about the area. The breakfast was a delicious and unique blend of recipes Bill... more

Our stay at the York River Inn was perfect. The trip was a surprise romatic weekend and the innkeeper was very willing to help with anything we could want or need. The house was tucked away in a beautiful, small community with several dining options in close proximity. The breakfast was AMAZING and unique both mornings of our stay. The... more

The York River Inn provides the consummate Bed & Breakfast experience. The small inn (only three guest rooms) is impeccably decorated with a bevy of Virginia-themed items, from maps of old Virginia to the Virginia state shell and everything in between. Yes, that Virginia even has a state shell is one of the myriad of facts I learned from innkeeper... more

Just returned from long weekend at the York River Inn. I took my husband away for his 52nd birthday. We had the Washington Suite. Room FULL of memorabilia and antiques. VERY comfortable bed. But the toilet...the website describes as "enhanced bidet". Sit down, the seat warms; press button and you are washed; press another button and you are air dried!... more

Bill, the innkeeper, was extremely friendly and hospitable! We immediately felt at home the moment we arrived. He was very knowledgeable about local history and recommended a wonderful place for dinner. We loved listening to his stories from his experiences working in Colonial Williamsburg and enjoyed seeing the pictures of the property throughout history. I wish we could have spent... more

Great place!

As others have noted, this is a charming, cozy B&B, run by an equally charming proprietor, Bill Cole, who knows more local history than you can imagine. He cooks an impressive breakfast and imparts excellent recommendations for the tourist about any aspect of Virginia history and superb advice about how to visit and tour the area. Be sure to follow... more

York River Inn is a real treasure. From the wonderful views to the fantastic breakfast, it's a winner! Bill Cole knows the true meaning of Southern hospitality. I felt at home within about 5 minutes of checking in. He's a true lover of Virginia and her history. If you're interested in learning more about the state and especially the Williamsburg/Yorktown... more

Bill Cole understands hospitality and his inn has something for everyone. The view from our room, the Presidents' Room, was amazing, and we loved returning to the comfort of York River Inn after sightseeing. We were so close to Yorktown amenities, and could walk to the Victory Center and the Battlefield from parking at the foot of the hill. Bill... more

If you want an experience where you are made to feel right at home - book now!! We have experienced several B&Bs and this was one of our favorites. We stayed in the Washington Suite and LOVED it. The view over the York River is stunning. Bill's breakfast MUST be experienced - Crab-a-Dab-a-Doos are really, really great! Wonderful views and... more
