August house is a beautiful hotel. The common sitting areas were lovely as were the staff. The breakfast was a continental breakfast and was also excellent with yogurt and granola and baked goods made fresh by the hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

We found August House while planning to visit family in town. It was very conveniently located and easy to find. The decor was very cozy, beautiful, clean and thoughtful. It was such a pleasure coming home to this relaxing location at the end of our busy days. It is a shame we couldn’t stay for longer. Everything was so perfect, including the wonderful breakfast!

We LOVED our stay at The August House. We were in town for a nearby wedding, and this was a perfect home base. Beautiful property, we felt safe and it was very quiet. Loved all of the little touches around the property. The self controlled AC was a bonus for two people who love a cooler temp, and the sound machine was a nice addition as well. Only good things to say. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.

What a unique place! Breakfast was fantastic, the decor is gorgeous, the little extras were very thoughtful and kind. We found it because we needed a room to sleep 3, which dramatically reduced the options for us, but what a gem we uncovered because of it! We had a great time playing trivia games and listening to your excellent vinyl collection in the lounge in the evening. Definitely would stay again if we’re ever back in town!
