For more than 140 years, five generations of the Graves' family have been innkeepers in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains near Syria, Virginia. Today we continue the family tradition of “making friends and keeping people” at Graves' Mountain Lodge, Inc. By combining this beautiful mountain setting with our gracious hospitality, Graves' Mountain Lodge is the ideal location for a wedding and reception. We want to help make your wedding day a special occasion for you and your guests.

         Graves' Mountain Lodge offers versatility and flexibility in the planning of your big day so that you can customize your dream wedding. During the warmer months, you may choose to have your wedding ceremony outside on our scenic grounds and the reception in one of our outdoor pavilions; or during the winter months, arrange to have your wedding ceremony and reception indoors at the Lodge and surround yourself with the warm glow of our fireplaces. Your wedding reception can be a casual afternoon social or an elaborate evening of dining and dancing. You can make the reception as formal or as informal as you like. We will work with you and your budget.

          Many wedding couples choose Graves' Mountain Lodge simply for the ease of having their wedding and reception plus guests' accommodations all in one convenient location. There's hiking, fishing, a country store, swimming and horseback riding just to name a few activities located at the Lodge or in the charming town of Syria. Our goal is for your guests to leave saying that they had “just plain old fun.”
