Cozy comfort

This was a peaceful escape with small-town charm. You'll hear the occasional creak of old floors, but it adds to the authentic charm, character and warmth. Clean and spacious with thoughtful decorating and touches throughout. Host Debbie was accommodating and flexible when I failed to notify in advance of our arrival as requested in the booking. Appreciate that! .

It was an old house in very good condition and loaded with many interesting things. There was a nice patio with a bench swing. The bed was very comfortable. We were the only ones booked at that time so we had the whole house to ourselves. Upstairs there are two bedrooms with a shared bath.

Very unique and interesting place. Quite comfortable overall. Fortunately we were the only guests upstairs so we had complete access to bathroom. If other guests had been there it would have been a shared space. That’s the only negative.

An okay place to stay

This was an okay place to stay. The owner/host was extremely nice. However, although advertised as a bed & breakfast with a “full breakfast from 8:30 to 9:30”, there was no breakfast. The owner said she stopped that when Covid started. It seems like some provisions could have been made. Like danishes, yogurt, juice, water, something, in the fridge. Also, there was no air conditioning in our room & the bathroom was extremely small.

We called the owner about 30 minutes prior to anticipated arrival; left message. We arrived but no one there and we left another message. We waited about 30 minutes and were about to leave when the owner called with code to let us into the home. The web site states "breakfast included" but, when I texted the owner that everning requesting a breakfast time, the owner replied that "We haven't served breakfast since COVID" and we had to spend about $20 at a restaurant for breakfast.

Ok if you want an old home/place to sleep

This is a nice old home for people that adore antiques and such. The shower and bathroom are very tiny. The drive way is also small. There was no television in the bedroom and I could not find toilet paper to replace roll. There was no breakfast offered even though it stated it would be included.

The owner cancelled day-of on us. Even though she didn’t charge us for this booking and told us where we could get another room, that other room ended up being expensive since it was last minute. Seemed like a nice property and owner, unfortunate that we couldn’t experience it and that the experience was a stressful one for me.

lovely B & B but no breakfast

We were looking to stay in the town where we were looking at property & there were only 2 B&Bs, no restaurants, so we picked 1. The room was comfortable, but the shutters in our room didn't block all the outside lights. And the cooked breakfast wasn't provided, not was anything there for us, not even continental. Called the owner, to find out, but got no response.
