    Food was delicious, large portions and beautiful presentation. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and cozy. The breakfast was hearty served with excellent service with a smile. I especially enjoyed the afternoon social on the screened in porch overlooking their lush gardens. The Inn brings you back in time...Sits hidden on top of a hill, amazing how large and private. Worth the trip for dinner and an overnight stay--very charming!

    Entrees and dessert was not even adequate. Pork was overcooked, caesar salad didn't even resemble a caesar salad and chocolate cake was very dry. 20% tip was put on bill although service was extyremely slow and not worth 20%.
