Birks Gasthaus


  • Inn Details

    Birk's Gasthaus is a comfortable old Victorian mansion, built in 1886. With some period furniture in the formal ladies parlour, and Claw foot tubs in most of the rooms (some with showers), 8 foot doors and transoms, the mansion is again being used to entertain guests. We have added a Game Room with a 50" Plasma TV, Poker Table, and soon will have a full size Pool Table. Or you can relax on our wraparound covered Verandah and enjoy our quiet location. Only three blocks from Stone Hill Winery and Vintage Resturant.

    We had never stayed at a bed and breakfast and were a little leary, but all our concerns were unfounded as we found this a very enjoyable experience. The house was magnificent, the host was friendly and gave great suggestions for dinner restaurants, the room comfy, the food was great, and we enjoyed meeting the other guests. Would stay here again.


    One night stay was delightful.
