Was pleasantly surprised to see there was a balcony off the room with a cute table and a couple of chairs. Unfortunately it was very cold and raining so we couldn't take advantage of it. I am sure it would have been great given the view. Breakfast was wonderful variety of selections, the hot food was hot and the cold food cold. Staff was very helpful with the question I asked about directions - she did not know but asked another staff member immediately and reported back. Will definitely stay there again if in the area.

The 'little house gallery' inside is adorable. Our room opened out onto it from the 2nd floor. The public sitting area in this gallery was fun and relaxing. Free coffee and microwave and sink right off this sitting area. The Inn grounds and inside and rooms were all well kept. Lovely.

First time staying here, this Inn/Hotel is by far the Nicest, Cleanest, Best smelling hotel I have ever stayed at, it was spotless. We were given a third floor room directly over looking ponds with an Otter, lots of fish, and Canadian Geese. I highly recommend this hotel.
