    We have stayed in alot of B&B's. This was so far above anywhere we have EVER stayed. The rooms go beyond clean---they are pristine, modern and homey. The property is incredible! They are totally and completely family friendly (we plan to go back with grandkids next summer). The work Bonnie and Mike have put into this property is amazing---and they love what they do. You will NOT be sorry spending the money to stay here. Enjoy!! Steve and Ginger

    Wonderful Honeymoon!

    Our honeymoon at the Lighthouse Lodge was just perfect. Mike and Bonnie were such gracious hosts and went out of their way to make our stay a special time. Even when we toppled over the paddle boat, on our first day, we all had a good laugh over it. Leave it to the honeymooners! What a fun time we had there and we're already planning to go back on our first anniversary.

    Mike and Bonnie Triplett are excellent Innkeepers. It seems that they were just supposed to run this B&B. We couldn't of felt more at home. The facilities were excellent and Bonnie is an excellent cook. We would definitely go back again and recommend it to anyone who wants to spend some time in this area. John and Ruth Newland

    I have stayed in many B&B's over the years and this one is now on the top of my list. Innkeepers Mike and Bonnie have gone out of their way to see that all the amenities you need are at your fingertips. The rooms and common areas are clean, comfortable, and charmingly decorated. Breakfast was terrific Bonnie is quite the cook. Mike can suggest all sorts of adventures around the area for you to do. Definitely a fabulous find and there is a return trip in my future.
