Graceland Inn is the picture of turn-of-the-20th-century elegance. Poised on the hillside of the campus of Davis & Elkins College, Graceland Inn, and its restaurant The Mingo Room, commands a twenty-mile view of the scenic West Virginia mountains.

This beautifully restored Victorian mansion served as the summer home to U.S. Senator and Vice Presidential candidate Henry Gassaway Davis. In the summer months guests of The Mingo Room can dine on the veranda that overlooks the town of Elkins below. The original red oak dining room and its adjacent glass conservatory, along with the cherry library and birds eye maple sunroom, also provide guests with more intimate dining experiences.

Halliehurst Hall, located next door -- summer home to Stephen B. Elkins,  U.S. Senator, Secretary of War, and Davis' son-in-law -- is the perfect companion to Graceland Inn. Both homes display exquisite woodwork and are a true treat to visit. Whether you want to step back in history or take advantage of some of some of the best outdoor activities in the east, this area of West Virginia is perfect anytime!
