Leisure and Activities

The Mimslyn Inn offers trails for all abilities that lead to waterfalls, rock outcrops, and protected wilderness in Shenandoah National Park and George Washington National Forest. Guests can explore Skyline Drive or a local winery. Hawksbill Creek has a 2-mile paved walking and biking loop. There are music, holiday, and seasonal festivals to enjoy with friends. Massage therapy sessions are available, utilizing Swedish, deep tissue, acupressure, and trigger point techniques, along with Eco-fin treatments.

Location and Surroundings

Located in rural Virginia, the Mimslyn Inn is near Luray Valley Museum (1.5 km), Luray Zoo (2 km), and The Car and Carriage Caravan Museum (1.5 km). Other landmarks include Arts & Artisans Fine Art Gallery (1 km), DarkWood Manor (0.5 km), and Carillon Park (1 km). Guests can find shops, festivals, performing arts, paved walking trails, museums, and monuments in the downtown area. The Shenandoah River's south fork is available for canoeing, tubing, fishing, and swimming.

Services and Events

The hotel has mountain views with gardens, patios, and stonework. The Garden is a tent venue with high peak ceilings, chandelier lighting, climate control and flooring in a garden setting. The open space interior has mountain views and outdoor seating. The Roosevelt Room is an intimate space between two large suites. Event staff will arrange ceremonies and receptions for 100 guests with cocktails, plated or buffet menu, dancing, flowers, and cake. A tented area includes seating for 75, a buffet area, and a dance floor. The team will be in touch within 2 business days of receiving the form.

“In my opinion, the Mimslyn Inn offers a unique experience steeped in history, with its 1931 origins evident in the architecture and decor. The multiple on-site dining options, including the Speakeasy, and proximity to both Luray Caverns and Shenandoah National Park make it a suitable base for exploration, and while some rooms may feel dated, the friendly staff and recreational facilities enhance the overall stay.”
