1 | The Twelve Oaks Bed and Breakfast (Covington, Georgia)

First up on this list of cozy B&Bs is The Twelve Oaks in Covington, Georgia. This gorgeous historic mansion was renovated in 2012, offering all of the amenities you need while also maintaining a quaint atmosphere. It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is also reportedly the inspiration for the Wilkes Plantation in Gone With the Wind.

On TripAdvisor, one visitor praised the property, which is "so beautiful, words cannot express." Yet another touted its cozy vibes, dubbing The Twelve Oaks "home away from home."

"The home itself is just as welcoming as the people who run it," a Sept. 2023 review reads. "I don't know exactly how to explain it but each time I turn into the driveway I have an overwhelming feeling of being home!"

And if The Vampire Diaries is your comfort show, you'll definitely want to pay The Twelve Oaks a visit. It was used as a shooting location for the series, as well as accommodations for the cast and crew.

2 | Heceta Lighthouse Bed & Breakfast (Yachats, Oregon)

This B&B is just six rooms, making it that much cozier, but the real dreamy draw of Heceta Lighthouse Bed & Breakfast is that it's actually in the former lighthouse keeper's home. As if that's not enough, you'll be treated to a seven-course breakfast in the morning during your stay.

In a video posted in March, TikToker and blogger @bybrisantos filmed the view from her window, saying it "may be the best ocean view room I've booked on the Oregon coast."

Her fellow visitors agree, with one reviewer on TripAdvisor calling the Heceta Lighthouse the "best place on the Oregon coast."

"The location of the BnB is idyllic, with spectacular views of the Oregon coast, Cape Creek bridge, and the [Heceta] Head Lighthouse that are truly awe inspiring. You will definitely be taking many pictures," another reviewer wrote.

Fair warning, however: Some do believe that the lighthouse is haunted!

3 | Hoffman Haus (Fredericksburg, Texas)

Next up on the list is Hoffman Haus in Fredericksburg, Texas. In addition to beautiful grounds and rooms, this spot really lives up to the "breakfast" side of things: Every day at 9 a.m., guests are served a chef-prepared meal in a picnic basket.

"There are SO many unique places to stay in Fredericksburg TX, and the Hoffman Haus is one of the coziest and cutest that is within walking distance of all the amazing food and wine in town!" TikToker and travel blogger Kimmie Conner wrote in the caption of an Oct. 2023 video.

Another on TripAdvisor added, "This was our very first stay at a B & B and it was truly amazing and unforgettable. The suite was cozy, inviting, clean, & we truly enjoyed our hot breakfast delivered in a beautiful basket the next morning."

4 | Wing's Castle (Millbrook, New York)

Searching for a bed and breakfast that will make you feel like you're in a fairy tale? Look no further than Wing's Castle in Millbrook, New York.

This destination lives up to its name, built to look like an actual castle by artists Peter and Toni Ann Wing. And while the nearby Millbrook Winery is a must-visit, you might not want to leave your room.

"The property is full of surprises and cozy nooks. We stayed in the annex room, I absolutely loved preparing breakfast in that sweet little kitchen. It was so well equipped," a TripAdvisor review from 2023 reads.

Another guest wanted future visitors to know that the pictures of Wing's Castle don't do it justice.

"Although the pictures do represent the eclectic-nature of the castle, what you don’t feel until you arrive is just how classy and cozy the rooms truly are," the five-star Sept. 2022 review reads. "We stayed in the cottage [and] the attention to detail was truly astounding. Every inch of the place feels beautifully curated down to the vintage kitchenware and the binoculars in the sunroom (which you can frogwatch from!)"

5 | Bann at Oak Knoll Napa (Napa, California)

If food is the one thing that really inspires comfort for you, don't overlook this resort-style bed and breakfast in Napa, California. Bann was built by chef Lalita Souksamlane, who wanted to provide an escape for guests while still fostering "feeling at home vibes."

"Just booked to come here again. The BEST bed and breakfast I've ever been to," TikToker Chloe Lau (@touringchloe) wrote in the caption of a July 2023 video. "We had a 2-nights stay here earlier this year and I've been missing this place everyday since then."

While all of the meals were top-notch, the "real highlight" was the nine-course chef's table experience for dinner.

"The dinner was incredible—it was farm-to-table (there is a farm on site) and ingredients used were directly imported from [Thailand]. I truly cannot recommend it more, it's the kind of dinner experience you can't get elsewhere," Lau concluded.

6 | Abbington Green (Asheville, North Carolina)

Less than a mile from downtown Asheville is Abbington Green, a AAA Four Diamond Select Registry Property. The historic home was completed in 1908 by the same supervising architect who worked on the Biltmore Estate, George Vanderbilt's Gilded Age mansion.

"There is a main and carriage house with seven rooms, a two-bedroom suite, a spa room, a dining room, and a living room with games, a piano, and a guitar," says Jennifer Agress, hotel expert for Insider Picks. "Unique for historic homes, there are only king beds, towel warmers, fireplaces, luxury bathtubs with a view of the TV in every room."

7 | Chapel Valley Estate (North Sewickley Township, Pennsylvania)

Chapel Valley Estate is a stunning bed and breakfast that started out as a renovation project in 2003. The large inn has three bedrooms and two suites, including a beautiful cottage loft with a full kitchen.

"I've stayed at a variety of guest houses and Airbnbs, but this one has retained the original charm and still runs like a traditional B&B. Their remodel of the old farmhouse is impeccable down to every last detail," says Meg St-Esprit, a Pittsburgh-based journalist.

Those staying in the cottage loft or the carriage house suite can have breakfast delivered right to their room, which is nice for couples looking to have a little more alone time. Speaking of breakfast, the signature dish is ratatouille, and it always ends with dessert.

Another perk is that the bed and breakfast is not far from a range of outdoor activities.

"It's very close to Volant, which is an Amish community with tons of tourist attractions, shops, and eateries. McConnell Mill State Park has some of the most gorgeous kayaking, hiking, and climbing in the state," says St-Esprit.

Nestled along the historic streets and buildings of the nation’s oldest city is The Collector Luxury Inn & Gardens. With a minimum age of 16 to stay, the inn has a distinctly adult feel and leans into that with fire pits and an onsite bar.

“The Inn itself consists of nine historic buildings, some of which date back to 1790. The property is a gorgeous, luxurious respite in the heart of America’s oldest city, St. Augustine. So you are completely wrapped in history,” says travel journalistBetsi Hill.

11 | Stone Manor Boutique Inn (Lovettsville, Virginia)

Another great B&B for those going wine tasting in Virginia is the Stone Manor Boutique Inn. This all-suite inn dates back to 1908, and each suite features a private bathroom, luxury amenities, and has a different theme.

"There's a large room that's converted into a grand dining area and a long communal table that almost feels somewhat Games of Thrones-y," says Ruksana Hussain, a travel and lifestyle journalist. "They also have a lovely outdoor space where you can hang out with a book or chat with other guests. And the best part is this is a south Asian-owned venue, which is rare to find in the industry."

Each morning breakfast is served in the grand dining room, where a large communal table is set for guests. Behind the table is an expansive coffee and tea bar where you can make your own drinks while waiting for your meal.

12 | Thorp House Inn & Cottages (Fish Creek, Wisconsin)

While you may not think of Wisconsin as a destination for bed and breakfasts, the Thorp House Inn and Cottages will change your mind.

"It's in a beautiful location (year-round) and offers classic B&B charm with vintage flair and homey atmosphere. Plus, the breakfasts served daily were varied and delicious," says travel writerKaty Spratte Joyce.

The family-friendly bed and breakfast has six standard rooms and six stand-alone cottages, so you’ll be able to find a room that can best fit your needs. Just note that the only guests who get breakfast included are those who stay in the inn rooms and not the cottages.

"Thorp House is conveniently located in the mid-peninsula area of Door County, so the entire area is easily accessible," says Joyce. "Specifically, the inn is near Peninsula State Park which offers great hiking, a lighthouse, and a new observation tower hundreds of feet up on Eagle Bluff. Water recreation opportunities, winery tours, and a lavender farm are other nearby attractions."

13 | Casa Grandview (West Palm Beach, Florida)
