    Tammy and Richard have done an outstanding job creating this beautiful and welcoming B&B. My husband and I stayed at The Orchid Inn to celebrate our anniversary, and we were impressed every step of the way. The grounds are landscaped with wonderful gardens that offer such tranquility. The house is warm and inviting and immaculate! Tammy's attention to detail really makes you feel special. We loved the full breakfast delivered right outside our door every morning...delicious and picture perfect! All of our needs were met and our expectations exceeded...beautiful, comfortable, romantic, and serene. An absolute treasure that we look forward to visiting again and again!

    We've stayed at a lot of B&Bs and The Orchid Inn has been our favorite, by far! The hosts are so personable and make you feel at home from the moment you arrive until your departure. We loved our tastefully decorated suite, the peaceful gardens, and the wonderful breakfasts. It was nice to see suites that weren't overdone in the flowery, Victorian style, but modern and subtle. The inn is about 1.5 miles out of town, which is why we chose it, so you can really relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. The trip back to the shops was quick and easy, which we took advantage of. There was nothing that we didn't like about it!


    A lovely retreat!

    My husband and I stayed with Tammy and Richard in August 2011. We felt as if we had landed in the lap of luxury - the bed linens, the breakfasts, the balcony, the gardens - everything was top notch. Tammy helped make our vacation very special. We enjoyed having breakfasts on our balcony. (We also read and fell asleep on the balcony!) We would highly recommend this inn.

    My wife & I recently stayed here. Not only were the rooms super clean and well decorated, the complete surroundings were beautiful. Tammy goes the extra mile with her fantastic breakfast & hospitality. Both Tammy & Rich make you feel very welcome. I told her that her recipes could put many resturant chains out of bussiness. We would highly recommend anyone to stay here as it doesn't get any better then this. Thanks for the great visit.

    We received a gift for the stay at the Orchid Inn based on our love of gardening and landscape design. What an amazing and perfect gift it was!! The grounds are incredible, filled with wonderful pathways and interesting plant material. The house and each suite are also immaculately decorated with attention to comfort and with details that are unique and a joy to view. The breakfasts were wonderful and having them brought to the room to enjoy is almost decadent! We loved everything and highly recommend a visit. We will definitely make the Orchid Inn our place to stay in Door County.
