Simply my favorite place to stay in Ashland, which I've visited many times. The owners are genial and informative, with excellent aesthetics. Our room was well appointed. I recommend two padded reading chairs, one for each occupant...

The innkeeper was very friendly and polite. Charming room with unique furnishings and art. Great location - walk to downtown. Good quality sheets, towels and toiletries. Lovely back garden. The building I stayed in - carriage house - is pretty old and could use carpet replacement, stepping stones, roof gutter repair. The convenient guest kitchen had a strong odor like someone was making kombucha or something.

This is an adorable inn that is close to downtown Ashland and across the street from our daughter's apartment. The proprietors were so kind, the room was clean and cute, and we had a private deck outside our door. We were only there for one night, but we really enjoyed it and will come back!

This was an absolute gem of a place. We enjoyed the garden and comfort of the room, but didn't have a chance to use the pool. We were pleasantly surprise that they had a Level2 EV charger for guest use. We had a lovely walk into town for dinner. Wish we could have stayed longer!

I had the best sleep here! It was so quiet and peaceful - an oasis really. Our room was comfy and the bed and pillows were perfect. It is an easy walk to the center of town. The property grounds are a haven with lots of different sitting areas - I sat outside and read many times during my stay. I highly recommend staying here!

Let me begin by saying that I have never given a 5 star rating to a hotel but Arden Forest Inn has earned it! Our room was very private and spacious. The attention to detail and special touches were evident throughout. The location is far enough away from the busy plaza but close enough to walk. Having a fully stocked guest kitchenette was another plus. We'll be back!

We enjoyed every moment of our stay. Our hosts, Corbett and Bill were exceptional. The breakfasts were amazing enough to feed an army. Staying at Arden felt like we were staying with family. Even strangers became friends thanks to the warm of our hosts and the home.

Amazing Place

Took a quick three day trip and have to give the highest compliments to the hosts. Great place, great breakfast, and great people. The hosts are a treat to chat with over breakfast. A very private pool was a welcome site in summer heat as well.

Nice B&B

Owners are very nice. Great breakfast. Toilet leaking in room 1 so the tile was coming up and damp. But the room was clean and well stocked.

Very clean, very quaint, and cozy comfortable. The best part though, was the 9:00am breakfast every day the hosts prepared and shared that usually lasted all morning because of the friendly and engaging conversations they provided. It was as if we were best friends even though we had just met. The best bed and breakfast we've ever experienced.

The lovely innkeeper met me for a late checkin at 19 pm. There was e-vehicle charging right by my room. The sidewalks were a tad rough to navigate with my rolling suitcase - but overall all lovely stayover in Ashland

We had a lovely stay at Arden Forest. The location is perfect, about a 10 minute walk to town through a quiet, leafy residential area. The off-street parking was convenient. The grounds were beautiful; I wish we'd had time to spend a few hours relaxing in the garden. Our room was great -very clean with a comfy bed. The shower temperature and pressure were so appreciated after a chilly night of camping just before our visit. We barely interacted with the hosts, which was fine. Overall, a terrific option for Ashland and a great value if you book a few months out. Highly recommended.
