    We had a lovely stay this past weekend in the family suite. We enjoyed the warm hospitality that we recieved from Steve, Barbara, and Clara. The house was just delightful. Immaculate is just an understatement to describe the cleanliness. Last but not least the breakfast were tasty, fresh and there was a nice assorment. We can't wait to book it aagain

    Our family and our dog Frank felt right at home with our own entrance and a full floor to relax inside or on the extended porch across the back of the house. The planked path to the lake provides a restful private spot to read, sun, or enjoy the canoes!

    Great local getaway!

    We wanted a quick local getaway to just relax celebrate our birthdays. We stayed in the upstairs room which was very spacious. The Inn is immaculate. We used the tub and fireplace both nights. The tub is hugh and it was wonderful having a real wood working fireplace. The innkeepers were great always available to answer questions or offer ideas on places to go in the area. The only thing I would change would be a better place to sit. There are nice wicker chairs, but I would prefer a couch or love seat. The King bed was comfortable and the area very quiet. Unfortunatly we could not use the path to walk down to the pond as the weather was too chilly to enjoy it. We would stay there again.

    I decided I would rather have peace and quiet than be near the ocean and I got that. I stayed in the upstairs room and loved the spacious feel. I used the tub one night and fireplace the other. The innkeepers were professional and gracious and intelligent. I love being able to open windows at night. The only thing I would change would be a better place to read. There were wicker chairs, but not good lighting and no footstool, so the bed was really the only place to read. I would stay there again.

    We never expected..

    to find such luxurious accommodation in a dog friendly inn but the Alexander Hamilton House provided it. In addition, our host couldn’t have been nicer. It was a lovely weekend and is truly a place for all seasons, on a pond and with a fireplace and whirlpool tub to boot!
