History
Cooper’s Landing Inn is located in the heart of Lake Country and is a part of Clarksville, Virginia’s only lakeside town. Originally built in 1830, the main Inn is surrounded by beautiful grounds which include original outbuildings and our private cottages. While visiting, guests can enjoy the 1833 smokehouse which houses the hot tub, our wedding gazebo, in-ground pool, sandbox for children, and patios and decks for special celebrations and events.
Cooper’s Landing is truly a four-season destination. In the summer months, the in-ground pool provides guests with a cool retreat. Surrounded by a brick patio, the pool area is complete with bistro tables and loungers where guests can savor a blended cocktail or indulge with an item off our delicious pool menu. In the winter months, guests can have S’mores by the fire-pit or curl up next to the woodstove in Traveler’s Tavern.
In addition to the Inn and Cottages, Cooper’s Landing offers guests delicious “farm to table” dining from its award winning restaurant Traveler’s Tavern and features dining in the main Inn’s historic dining rooms or outside on our trellised patio and wine bar. Cooper’s chefs are also available for onsite and offsite catering services.
Cooper’s Landing is also a premiere destination for weddings, elopements, and special events. We are not only a venue but an all-inclusive wedding destination that handles all the details including catering, overnight accommodations, and even wedding cake design. Couples can chose from our many different locations to host their special event.
While staying at Coopers, guests can explore Mecklenburg County which is surrounded by local history and showcases many historical and architectural gems including Prestwould Plantation, McCullum Moore Gardens & Museum, Occoneeche State Park, and Boyd Tavern.
Clarksville affords its visitors fine dining, antique specialists, and gift shops that are happy to welcome all visitors with a smile. Guests can also venture out and explore our local wineries, breweries, and distilleries.
Perhaps guest’s favorite activity in Mecklenburg is the great outdoors. We are happy to arrange your private boat ride on the lake, canoe trip, horseback riding, beach and kayak excursions at our sister property Turtle Cove, or even a hike along the banks.
Because Cooper’s Landing is truly a Romantic Getaway in Lake Country, many guests never leave the Inn and enjoy a romantic small town escape and INNdulgences such as in-room massage, private gazebo dinners, cooking classes, chocolate covered strawberries, and a glass of wine by the fire-pit. Whatever your pleasure, Cooper’s Landing Inn will make it memorable in Lake Country!
