As all of the other commenters have reported, this is a very cool BnB in a historic home. We stayed in Emma’s hideaway, which is the only room with 2 beds. It was perfect for our family of three. Cathy, the Innkeeper, is very personable and a great cook! Breakfast was delicious and everything about our stay was fantastic. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Cathy, the wonderful innkeeper, is devoted to her customers. She solved all our (minor) travel issues and offered great advice about what to see in the area. Her breakfasts were very good. The house is historic, so narrow steep stairs and small rooms might not be great for some but the charm is undeniable. Plenty of hot water, good WiFi, coffee, refrigerator and TV in our room were great. Wonderful location. We’d love to stay again.
