"If your thing is big city glitz, The Tides Inn in Irvington, Va. isn’t for you. If you like the water, watching boats, biking, playing a few rounds of golf on a par 72 Golden Eagle Golf Club, designed by George Cobband and taking it easy, you’ll love the Tides Inn. Travel and Leisure has named The Tides Inn its number one choice for Best Resort in Virginia (and the only Virginia resort mentioned in their Top 100 issue last year)." READ MORE

The Hope and Glory - The Hope and Glory Inn is a boutique inn of 7 rooms and 13 cottages. It is situated within a classic waterfront town on the Chesapeake Bay’s western shore.
Around 1890, a small school opened in Irvington on the property of the old Methodist Church. It had two front doors: one for boys, one for girls. Today that small school has graduated into one of the great inns in the United States.
The Hope and Glory Inn was recently featured on Jim Flynn's "Best Weekends".
"Every now and then we encounter the “perfect storm” for our business, that time when location, accommodations, people and food come together to create a magical experience. Such was the case when we visited the idyllic town of Irvington, Virginia (673 residents) on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay and stayed at the marvelous Hope & Glory Inn. Fast becoming a retreat for the well-to-do from Washington and Richmond, the town has just enough going to keep your interest but not enough to disrupt the serenity of your weekend getaway.
While technically a B&B, that designation just doesn’t do it justice as the mix of accommodations, the occasional Chef’s Table Wine Dinners, the Friday Crab Cruises and the Detention wine bar, all conspire to push the property beyond the boundaries of any B&B you’ve ever seen."
