    First Time BnB Experience

    April 29, 2013

    We stayed in the Sage Room at this bed and breakfast back in March. This was our first time staying at a BnB, and I have to say the hosts, Dave and Lori, exceeded our expectations in hospitality. The made us very comfortable right from the beginning. I can say we enjoyed everything from the "quaint" charm of the old house to the delicious made-to-order breakfast each morning. I can only hope every BnB experience we have is as wonderful as this was. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

    " Great Romantic Getaway"

    April 01, 2013

    My lady and I stayed in the beautifully decorated Sage Room at the Brookside Inn At Laurens. The wine and chocolates were great. The king-sized bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very roomy and very spotless with a rain shower head in the full bath. Breakfast was well prepared, high quality and delicious. Everything about the room and the Inn was first class and as expected. Innkeepers Dave and Lori were very personable and accommodating. Great place for a romantic getaway. I would highly recommend the Brookside Inn At Laurens to my best friends.

    " IT'S JUST WONDERFUL"

    March 13, 2013

    My husband and I spent 1 night at the Brookside Inn At Laurens and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Inn is very old and Dave & Lori have been careful to maintain period charm while at the same time providing modern amenities. We stayed in the Lavender Room which has a gas fireplace and a very comfortable king bed - very cozy! The common room was especially warm and inviting with a large gas fireplace . It was a lovely place to sit in the morning with a cup of coffee and a good book. There are many good restaurants in the area and the Inn is within a short drive too most. Lori provided suggestions that would satisfy any appetite. Breakfast was very good, We highly recommend this wonderful inn.

    "Fabulous Place"

    February 08, 2013

    I had stayed here on a Ladies weekend with my friends. We rented the "Sage room" which was perfect. The place is simply beautiful without being stuffy whatsoever. It is apparent that the Innkeepers love what they do. They are attentive and friendly. The special touches really are special. This Inn is in my top five list. There are plenty of things to do and we wish we could have stayed another night. I will definitely be back.

    " A Short Stay In A Great Room"

    January 25, 2013

    We spent just one night at the Brookside Inn at Laurens , but we were positively surprised by the warm welcome of the owners, they had check us in very fast which was greatly appreciated since we had a long drive that day and the comfortable and stylish room that they gave us for a very good price. I agree with other travelers, the breakfast could be more then you can ask for all in all I recommend the stay.

    Great Getaway

    January 04, 2013

    We spent night in December at this lovely inn, just a few minutes outside of downtown Oneonta -- close enough to access everything easily and far enough off of Main Street for a really peaceful retreat. We stayed in the sage room and could not have asked for anything more. Very large room, fireplace, lovely bed and nice bathroom, all the amenities one could ask for, and a Yummy breakfast in the morning, as well the great room stocked snacks, coffees, teas, hot chocolate, etc. Help yourself. Wonderful restaurants in town . But I must say, with all there was to do, we were tempted to just stay in our lovely room and relax, reading and watching on the flat screen TV. A wonderful oasis.
