This is a WONDERFUL place to stay! The rooms are exceptionally charming and unique, incredibly clean, and as so comfortabe you forget you are a guest in a bed and breakfast. Sherryl pays so much attention to the details of the rooms that you need and want nothing but more time in the comfortable space provided. The breakfast is very good and seems to keep coming. You will not walk away hungry or unsatisfied. This really is a little sanctuary that is worth a trip.

My husband and I slept better here than at anyplace we've ever stayed away from home. The room was quiet and very comfortable. And Sherryl prepared wonderful breakfasts. There was a small refrigerator right outside the rooms stocked with water and other beverages. Everything was wonderful. We will definately stay here again.

Decided to try out a B&B for my birthday, and it was the right choice. My fiancee and I felt so relaxed. It was a perfect night away. We pulled up to the place, and our first thoughts was gorgeous. Rooms were very clean, Sherryl was so friendly, so very nice, and she catered to everything we needed. Breakfast was delicious as well. I reccommend this place to anyone!!!
Highly Recommended
