    This is where we go when we don't want to stay with family. Much more comfortable. The beds are great as well as furnishings.

    The Penrose owners were very hospitable, the breakfast was yummy and the decor and surroundings were wonderful. Nancy and Dick clearly love what they do and it reflects in the way they treat their guests and their property. This was a great value stay and we would definitely visit again.

    A convenient place to stay.

    Nancy & Dick are very engaged with their guests -- sitting down to visit and tell stories. I'd recommend Penrose -- but not if you're looking for privacy.
