Fantastic experience from beginning to end. The Magnolia cottage was very clean when we arrived. The jet tub and fireplace are amazing features and everything felt very cozy. They even had our room ready a couple hours ahead of schedule. I’d highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a getaway near Harrisonburg or Shenandoah.

Charming house is a well kept quiet neighborhood. I feel absolutely safe there. The bed was extra comfy, the room sparkling clean, the bath had a giant garden tub and a stand up shower. Plenty of hot water. Fresh water in the rooms, coffee pot, real cups, and coffee with amendments. Common area has ice and coffee. Outdoor seating on immaculate grounds. Plenty of shade. Close to downtown area. Uber ride was less than $11. Would absolutely stay there again. I was in the main house “Iris” room.

Magnolia Cottage is the definition of charm. How could anyone pack so much thoughtfulness into one space. The bed was comfortable, and the linens were dreamy. The spa like bathroom was all you needed to wash every care away. The kitchenette filled every need in your home away from home, dishes, coffee, tea, and yummy snacks. I would highly recommend By the Side of The Road Inn and Cottages. Why stay in a characterless chain hotel, when you can have all the extra amenities for the same price???

Everything was cozy, convenient, and comfortable when we entered the suite. Spacious main bedroom with a soft mattress. Thoughtful decoration of the living room. Everything you need for a quiet stay. And virtual check-in and check-out. Thank you, Jesse and Anna.

I just got back from staying at By The Side of the Road cottages and I have nothing but great things to say. The owners thought of everything. The bed, pillows, and linens were of superior quality and the touches throughout (snacks, your name on a welcome plate, high quality bath products) were noticed and appreciated! I enjoyed the relaxing jacuzzi with the double-sided fireplace being an added benefit. The owners were very kind. I highly recommend! I know I will be back.
