This is a great place to stay for a romantic getaway. The owners thought of so many little details (book lights at the bedside). Appetizer plate and complimentary bottle of wine were wonderful on arrival. Just a perfect place to stay.

Innkeeper Response

We have owned Dunbar House, 1880 for almost six years, and have prided ourselves on offering our valued guests a unique bed and breakfast experience. Please accept our sincere apologies, as we are sorry that your experience was less than favorable. More than that, we are sorry that you did not choose to make us aware of your discomfort on Saturday night by either calling us (we did not receive any message on our voice mail) or addressing us in person. At no time were we aware or privy to any conversation you may have had with other guests. If we were aware at that point in time, it is our policy to handle issues immediately. Most of the registered guests returned from a local area activity around 10 p.m. and migrated to the parlor, thus creating an impromptu gathering, and we were invited to join our guests. These repeat guests, who come for certain events each year, get to know one another, and enjoy an opportunity to mingle. It was not our intention, nor that of the other guests in the house, to have made your stay uncomfortable. It is true that we no longer offer cookies on a plate in the dining room, as we found that guests who arrive late most times did not get cookies. We have been providing our guests with the same cookies year after year, but we now present our freshly baked cookies on a silver tray lined with white doilies in each room at 3 pm so that all our guests receive our afternoon hospitality. It is our hope that you will consider revisiting Dunbar House again, as we believe you will have an entirely different experience.
