    My husband and I stayed in the Rifle's Suite for our honeymoon night. We loved that it was above the garage and separate from the rest of the house. The room was beautiful and had a view of the riverfront and downtown Fredericton. The jacuzzi was relaxing and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and the company around the table was delightful. I would definitely stay there again!
