You should stay here!

We did a driving tour of New England last week. This was by far the best hotel we stayed out and definitely the least expensive. The room was so spacious. We stayed in the Crawford suite. It a king with a pull out couch and a separate bedroom with a queen. The bed was so comfortable. The bathroom was roomy. The coffee bar was a nice treat. Would definitely stay here again!

Overall a nice place. The road noise can be bad at times, and we didn't appreciate that the checkout time is 10, which is also the time the pool opens, so my wife couldn't get a last swim. Wished there was a human around to answer questions, we never saw the caretaker although there does seem to be one. Still one of the better places in the area based on what we saw driving around.

It’s a little off the beaten path but well worth the stay. Our room in the inn was beautiful. We enjoyed the common area. It was comfortable and impeccably decorated. The coffee bar was well stocked. We hope to stay for a few days next time to enjoy swimming in the sparkling pool and sitting in the sauna. We highly recommend staying here.

My family with two teenage boys had booked one of the cabin room with a queen bed and two bunk beds along with a kitchenette. There's a wonderful private patio set right outside of the door where we had our dinner under the stars. It is beautifully decorated and location behind trees away from the main street with some privacy. The common room area in the main building have chest set, games, guitar, and small breakfast/coffee bar as well as accessible necessities without needing to bother anyone. We had a really nice home away from home vacation during our two night stay and would definitely go back next time.

Really enjoyed our stay. Property and grounds are beautiful. Caretakers Kim and Jed were a great couple and very responsive and friendly. They made sure we had wood for the fire pit. They also have a propane fire pit. Will definitely be staying again.
