Loved staying here!!! It is a historic inn, but you’d never know it other than the cozy atmosphere!! Only stayed 1 night, but staff went above and beyond! Definitely will stay here again when we come back to the area. Only wish we planned on staying longer so we could have explored more! Definitely again thank you to the staff!!!

Charming historic inn with attentive staff and good food. We stayed for my husband’s birthday and treated ourselves to one of the best rooms with a king sized bed and a fireplace. It made for a romantic, memorable experience. Would go again.
