The welcome cheese platter is lovely. Dessert in the evening is very yummy The French toast in the morning is the best in my entire whole life. It was melted in my mouth with tasty flavor. Beverly certainly is a great chef. The entire team from front desk to kitchen is amazingly friendly and helpful and they loaned us to bike to Spanish moss trail and the wet land … a beautiful scenery trip in the town ! The recommendation to Fish Camp restaurant is excellent because it serves the freshest seafood in town. And the horse carriage ride around the town is a must be tour. Would love to go back to visit the town and stay in this historical inn again and again

Beautiful Inn and Place to Stay. Need parking

Beautiful place to stay. My only complaint is there was an event on-site so no parking. I arrived around 5:30pm and had to park 3 blocks away from the Inn. In the future I would probably check in ahead of time to see if there is an event or show up right at check in or just before to secure a spot behind the Inn. The next morning when I woke up there were plenty of parking spots after the event ended.
