Reviews

“The whole decor, the room, the staff and the food were superb! Your personalities and talents give a great warmth to the inn.”

“This beautifully restored mansion was a pleasure to visit. The room was exquisite. With the double whirlpool and comfortable Tempur-Pedic bed, we almost never missed a TV. Although they do have WiFi and satellite radio. The breakfast included with our stay was quite satisfying, however a larger breakfast may be purchased if you are so inclined. The staff and owner were very knowledgeable of the area and its history. They also invited us to take a peek at the other unoccupied rooms. The only downfall to our stay was the expense. The rooms are quite a bit more than most B&Bs. As lovely as it is, this place will only be for special occasions.”
