They have amazing food. I'm looking forward to making my way through the menu. Creative entrees usually reserved for the upper echelon restaurants are affordable here. The escargot appetizer was fabulous as well as the scallops laden with lobster & crab.

Relax in one of the spacious guest rooms or two-person jacuzzi suites with private baths available at this beautiful Victorian bed and breakfast. Features of the inn include original coal burning fireplaces with oak mantles in all of the rooms except the Scandinavian Suite. A full gourmet breakfast is included.

I was especially bothered by the owners. They were over concerned about my personal business and kept bothering me to check in (knocking on my door when I was ready to call it a night). They also were constantly sharing information about guests with the other guests (oh, they are thinking of relocating here, did you know that their dad is having... more

If you are expecting a nice, comfortable and relaxing visit, don't stay here. The facility is not clean. We requested a 'pet free' room and received a room that stunk of cat spray and was covered in fur. Carpets, bedspreads, drapes. It was a very unpleasant experience. We were not able to stay but a few hours due to a pet allergy we informed them of ahead of time. We were promised the cats did... more
