The property was old and a little run down, but very charming. There were only two outlets in the room so we had to unplug the lamps in order to charge our devices. The room and en suite bathroom were very spacious. There was a large, inviting tub but it had no plumbing. The bed was very comfortable.

The Expedia website said there was hell yes elevator and everything was on one level. My wife cannot climb stairs well so that is why I chose this facility.When I got there, our room was on 3rd floor a flights of stairs. Had no choice but to take room and assist my wife. Would be nice to get with owner and get facility correct so next customer who has same issue will not be surprised

The property was very well maintained and the attention to detail was excellent. They have kept the look of the era of the home very much intact, like stepping back in time. Even though it is off of a main road it was very peaceful in the morning. The staff were very friendly and attentive to your needs.

Elegant, beautifully decorated Victorian B&B, with friendly host/staff and a great breakfast.Our private bath was just down the hall, other rooms had ensuite bathrooms.Highly recommend this inn if you're passing through the area! Note:The property is slightly set back from a main thoroughfare; the A/C screened out any traffic noise for us.

Don't miss this hidden Gem

We absolutely loved the home and the staff. At first, didn't realize it was a Bed and Breakfast....that was the bonus. The "Care Takers" were warm and friendly. And this OLD home, was not old at all. It was very well taken care of and maintained. Breakfast was delicious. The front porch with rocking chairs, and the river ran past the property. Short walk to a small downtown area with shops and restaurants. Hope to stay again soon. Our stay here was because we were passing through. We wish we stayed longer!!!!
