Inside the Inn was fine. We felt that being a historical place, the owner would have kept the site in good repair. It was in great need of repainting to the columns on the porch, shutters, door entries etc. There were SO many dead bugs, flies & cobwebs on the windows, doors & bbq grill, you hated to touch the door knob to let yourself in. Inside, it had been nicely redone with period appropriate furnishings & artifacts. Our room was nice & clean. However, the mattress was in great need of being replaced as it felt as old as the Inn itself. Our hostess was very kind & sweet. For the fees they charge each guest, the owner of the property needs to take some pride in this beautiful property & clean it up & fix it up to what it’s deserving of.

The main room was great. Our room was hot. The carpet was dirty. We did not receive the towels we needed until 10:30 pm. A clean bath mate was needed. This property could be so great with a little TLC.

Sweet Historical Home Needs Outside Love And Care.
Once inside this cute home, you are taken back in time. Historical facts and other stories fill the walls and bookcases. The inside of the home is clean. Our bed was very comfortable and our breakfasts were delicious. (But at night, the rooms upstairs are very cold/freezing.) One of the highlights of the home as listed on their site, talks about sitting and relaxing on the back patio. But the outside of the home is a mess and needs some love and care. Webs, bugs, unswept patios, dead flowers in flower pots, and a patio bbq that is dirty and covered with spider webs. Even when driving down White Street and looking at the front door and windows - you can see them covered with webs and bugs. Although the inside of the home is nice, the impression from the outside appears like the home is not taken care of.
