    The rooms are nice, but it is the food - wonderful cookies and cake available in the guest kitchen (near a small, cozy sitting room for guests) and the BEST BREAKFAST ever - that made this such a hit for my husband and I. Plus the Innkeepers and staff made a huge effort to be accomodating. A lovely place.

    My husband and I spent the first night of our honeymoon here, and we were totally blown away. We were greeted the second we pulled into the circle driveway. The Fairview perfectly combines antiquity with elegance. The rooms are very spacious yet cozy. The 24-hour snack bar offers free soft drinks, coffee, and fresh baked goodies. We were able to enjoy some macaroons right out of the oven. After mingling with the other guests over breakfast, I was in need of printing our reservations for the next night's stay in New Orleans. When I informed the manager that the printer was out of paper, he practically ran to get me the printer paper. That was one of many instances of their impeccable service. I highly recommend this bed and breakfast!

    Discovered this Inn over the Christmas holiday and was very pleased on all counts. The room was tastefully appointed and spacious, the staff friendly and helpful, and the overall environment made you want to stay longer. Great breakfast with homemade granola along with traditional style.

    I chose the Fairview Inn for my June 2010 wedding and it was absolutely a perfect choice. The property is magnificently beautiful, the rooms clean, the food is great, and the staff ever so friendly. The setting was gorgeous and everyone loved the place and the food. I would definitely recommend this Inn whether for a wedding or for a weekend retreat. Thank you Fairview staff.
