    We planned a laid back and relaxing week in February 2011 and decided to get married at the inn. We made the perfect choice! The staff and owner are extremely helpful with suggestions on anything from flowers to choosing a local restaurant for dinner. The atmosphere at the inn is relaxing and the food incredible. Everything was perfect, including the weather. We'll go back again and again.
