I wrote in the guest book that the bed and breakfast was a hard to find in the dark, when its lights were off, and that the TV in my room was tiny. This was perfect. The breakfast AND evening snack were superb every day. Also, during the day, the smells of cooking drifted up to my room. Totally great experience.

We hadn't been back to the Applesauce Inn in seven years. But even with new ownership our recent stay was every bit as nice as the first time we were there. The room was warm and cozy and that warmth was extended by our innkeeper whose hospitality we hope will bring us back before another seven years pass.
Applesauce Inn is great

This was the first time my partner and I had ever stayed at a bed and breakfast and our expectations were exceeded beyond belief!! The house was open and welcoming, the room we stayed in was spacious yet cozy and the food was phenomenal! Jamie was such an incredible host and went above and beyond to make us feel relaxed and at home. The desserts at night were amazing and we loved that she utilized local ingredients in every dish she served. The huge wrap-around porch was furnished with incredibly comfortable chairs and made sipping coffee in the morning and watching the chickens graze something exciting to get up early for. She was incredibly knowledgeable of the area and had several suggestions of places to go and things to do. A beautiful bed and breakfast and outstanding hosts will definitely bring us back to this country setting!
A friendly place!

The Daniel Room was very cozy and nicely furnished. We enjoyed the evening desserts and wine tasting, sitting on the porch and talking with the owners and other guests, and a delightful breakfast. Jamie and Gary have a wonderful set up that caters to people with dietary or physical restrictions.
