Dan and Mary were the most gracious and accommodating hosts. Their love of their home and appreciation of their guests is apparant in the fine touches we experienced in our room, around the home and grounds, and during breakfast. This inn deserves... read more

Beautiful property and rooms but the breakfast was way under par. Breakfast at a B&B like this should be something special. Nothing special here and a major disappointment. A "can I get you some more coffee" would have been nice but... read more
Innkeeper Response
Although we work very hard to please our guests in all ways, there are a select few who we simply cannot please. When our guests check in, we walk them through the house and explain various things to them. One of these things is our coffee service. We have a large coffee pot in our dining room on an antique server along with cups, sugar, creamer, sweetner etc. We explain that coffee is available by 7 am every morning and invite them to serve themselves. We never thought this was an unacceptable way to offer coffee to our guests as many are early risers and want to get a cup of coffee and then go sit on our verandahs and enjoy the beauty of our home and gardens. We have never told our guests that we get their coffee for them once they sit at the breakfast table. I think this guest assumed that that was the protocol whereas I assumed that this guest was as capable of getting their own coffee at the breakfast table in the same manner that they got their coffee prior to sitting down for breakfast. This guest had only to ask and and I would have been more than happy to wait on them. We have been serving delicious homemade breakfasts for many years and for someone to call our breakfasts "under par" well, I can only say that we know, as well as the thousands of guests who have stayed with us, that breakfasts here are delicious, bountiful and served in a beautiful setting.

Dan and Mary are the benchmark for all the other innkeepers out there. They know the true meaning of hospitality. Great room, beautiful home, excellent food, thoughtful "extra" touches, and wonderful hosts. Make sure you go out of your way... read more
