    We stayed three nights and were sad to leave. We loved the uniqueness of each room and felt like we were staying with family. The owners are very sweet and work hard to make sure you have everything you need. Breakfast was amazing. What a beautiful place.


    A wonderful experience!

    Six of us stayed at the Hancock Inn for a girl's weekend getaway. We rented three rooms which were the perfect size for two. The rooms were decorated and maintained perfectly with a historical feel and modern touch. Everything was spotless. They have a full service kitchen which offers breakfast and dinner daily. The food was outstanding and the service was friendly and well-versed. In planning this weekend the Innkeepers, Robert and Nancy, provided us with wonderful guidance of things to do in the area. They really went above and beyond as hosts. We did a group wine tasting after dinner, which was tons of fun and they also offered us cooking classes both days for nominal fees. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Loved it!
