A place that claims to be a B&B and doesn't have breakfast is unique. A place that calls itself an inn and has no on site presence making it a do-it-yourself is unique.

The extra covid precautions like no contact check in and check out, no room service and reminders to wear our mask and social distance made us feel safe and comfortable. This was the perfect weekend getaway!

The Boardman House was very clean and comfortable. Although it is a historic home the bathroom was new which was a nice feature. The 2 breakfasts that I had were outstanding, I have never had such delicious pancakes or french toast. Mia is a delightful host and I enjoyed talking with her and staying in her beautiful Bed and Breakfast!
