We love this Inn. This was our second visit, but I won't book through Expedia again. The rate was much higher than if we had booked direct. The people at the Inn are very nice and personable and there is a nice little bar in the lobby with outdoor seating. The rooms are clean and decorated nicely. Thank you for another nice visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying on the grounds near the Ohio River. The band playing on the balcony was very entertaining and played just until 10 pm allowing for a quiet night of sleep. The spacious grounds were well manicured and the staff was very friendly.

The only complaint was they said free breakfast and starts at 7am. 710 no one there for breakfast. Some guy finally came and made coffee for us but we had to leave so didn’t get breakfast. I even mentioned to staff the night before we had to leave early.
