We stayed and ate at the Inn the weekend of Valentine’s Day and we had a wonderful experience. The room was beautiful, cozy and clean. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious and the town is very cute. I would love to come back and stay again—we still talk about it!

The hotel hospitality was beyond our expectations, we were greeted and taken up to our room like VIP guests. Our room exceeded our expectations with space, cleanliness, and atmosphere. We tried to book our stay for our next wedding in the area here and we were sad to see it was fully booked for that weekend. We will always come here first.

I'm very satisfied with my stay. The area was beautiful the staff were very friendly and the room was nice. There were some things that I saw could be improved,which I noted to the staff, but nothing that would prevent me from staying again or recommending the Inn to others. I'm totally satisfied.
