    Comfortable Robes for Our GuestsRelax in our new Hot Tub overlooking the Heritage Rail Trail. It's great anytime of the year. After a hard day of riding or hiking on the trail, nothing is better than slipping into the Tub.
    What a place to relax! The back yard patio furniture is so comfortable, you might find yourself taking a little nap. A great spot to sit an admire the well landscaped terraced gardens. There is also a roll out awning just in case the sun gets in your eyes. This is a great spot for enjoying a cold beverage at night with the patio lights  shining thru the flowers. You could spend hours out here just looking at the flowers and landscaping.The Washingtons Room also features a Full size bed and has its own private bath. Enjoy the view of the rail trail right from your room. The iron bed and the old wash board dresses adds charm to this beautiful room. The Washingtons room also has a very old antique oil wall lamp now converted to electric right beside the bed for reading your favorite book.
