When I was at the red castle, I noticed that the bed in the gold room I was staying in was smaller than the "queen" I have at home, so it was cramped. Also, the breakfast was absolutely nothing like the fancy chef prepared breakfast that... read more

Great experience--excellent food! Only issue was the room was very cold. Would advise to visit in warmer weather!

Innkeeper Response
Awfully sorry their visit coincided with a failure in the individual room thermostat of which we were unaware at the time. Had we been told we could have supplied a portable heater to make them toasty, but they "suffered in silence" and enjoyed other aspects of their stay, thank goodness! It has since been made right and it was the only room affected. This last weekend we had a brief storm related power failure and it got a little chilly, but we got out spare blankets and comforters and guests bundled up with hot drinks to read in the parlor by candlelight for a few hours .

Innkeeper Response
In taking the time to write an independent website review these guests have given us a tremendous gift,a thank you for fulfilled expectations. Describing our style of unobtrusive attention, and other special things enjoyed by them makes the behind the scenes efforts no one ever sees still a pleasure for us after twenty plus years.
