    We spent the weekend before Christmas for a much needed getaway. This B&B definitely exceeded our expectations in many ways. It was so comfortable, cozy and beautifully decorated for Christmas. Wally & Gloria were wonderful hosts. I would highly recommend staying here and am very disappointed that the innkeepers are retiring and closing this wonderful establishment next fall. It will be a GREAT loss! Bobbi & Alan Cumo

    Perfect place!

    When you choose a B&B based on the website, you're never sure it will be the same in person. The Boothby is wonderful! Beautiful inn, great service, easy time.

    always a wonderful experience!

    We have stayed at Boothby for several years and always look forward to the next time! The hospitality and concern for detail could not be better. From making a reservation, excellent amenities, and delicious breakfasts, these owners are "top notch."
