5 out of 5A definite "Do Again"!
December 01, 2011
Steve & Elizabeth are perfect hosts, attentive to every detail. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the decor perfectly detailed to match the era of the home. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Because the house is back away from the main road, it was quiet and restful in the house. Great value for the low prices they charge. We'll definitely return!

5 out of 5An exceptional B&B!!
August 24, 2009
This is one exceptional bed and breakfast. Our every need (and then some) was met. Even snacks, water and juice were packed to take along on our daily sightseeing adventures. We were made to feel like family members. The breakfasts were creative and delicious. The table was set artistically and different every morning. The theme rooms were exceptionally creative.

5 out of 5A trip in history and a home away from home.
July 26, 2009
Within minutes we felt at home! In addition to lovely hosts with a wealth of knowledge on local history and attractions, we have immensely enjoyed the house with its antique but very well kept decor, artifacts from around the worlds, and many stories... Everything about the house and its inhabitants is lovely! The story of the house is also fascinating! The rooms are all so very different, but they are filled with love and character that anyone would appreciate.

October 01, 2008
This was a wonderful pampered visit to our long forgotten history. The hosts were delightful and we enjoyed their hospitality and some very interesting conversation. The time and effort involved in the decor is staggering and well worth seeing. I can't imagine having a more enjoyable stay anywhere.
