Just stayed for one night for a work trip but it was so cozy. Breakfast service was a little slow but so delicious and everyone was so so nice and friendly. The room was comfortable and the grounds are beautiful! Loved that I could just walk next door to have a wonderful meal at Stella’s, too! Special shout out to Duncan for checking us in and being so sweet!

The only drawback was the ac/heat window unit that was really noisy in our room. Otherwise, a pleasant stay. The Inn offers the atmosphere of the private dwelling that it was once. We liked it and the absence of a TV in the room did not bother us. Very quiet little town.
