Complimentary hi-speed wireless internet is available in every Suite as well as on the grounds. All chambers are equipped with 27" cable TV's and DVD/CD players, 2-line phones with data ports, coffee makers, hair dryers, irons and boards, plush terry robes, triple sheeted pressed white bed linens, and fine bathing amenities. One suite is handicapped accessible. A delicious candlelight breakfast is served in an intimate breakfast room reserved only for Luxury Suite guests. All guests are welcome to enjoy our country acres replete with picturesque water landscapes, footbridges, and gardens.
