We had stayed here before, but upgraded to the cottage which has a hot tub. It was lovely. The one spotlight that illuminates the control panel was out, which made for some interesting settings, but worked out fine. Breakfast was eggs benedict, fruit, juice, and coffee accompanied by stories of bicycling adventures here and there. We had to tear ourselves away at 10:30 to take care of business, but a wonderful stay nonetheless. Steve and Valerie
A gem!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Jackson House! and definitely will return. Our hostess made us feel very much at home, prepared a marvelous breakfast for us each day, and was genuinely warm and welcoming. The house is beautiful, and we will be sure to make it the "home base" on our next trip to the Railroad/Shrewsbury area seeking family history.
Great stay!

I stayed at the Jackson House recently with my mother and my aunt for a fun girls only weekend. We had a great time and everything was wonderful! Pam was so helpful, kind, and flexible. The breakfast was delicious and the rooms are beautiful. The beds are super warm and comfortable and every room in the house is unique and lovely. They had a hot tub which was a nice bonus. Everything was perfect and we had a great time. Thank you Pam and Bob! I will definitely be booking here again in the future.
