If you want your loved one to feel like a step into a time and place called wonderland --this is it!

10.0

I had the millennials (2) stay at the Inn while visiting and crossed my fingers even after hearing great things from other family members who have stayed. They loved it and won't stay anywhere else next time they come! Kim, owner, was willing to accommodate a wee hours in the am arrival, the breakfasts were amazing and we were able to join them for breakfast on the last day for such a reasonable fee. Clean, quiet, amazingly friendly and kind staff. Next time company comes, we'll let them stay at our house and we'll go to the Inn! Best mini-multigenerational vacay ever!!

There were no surprises. At 7 am there wasn't a bathroom on the first floor and their room was on the third floor. I knew ahead of time so no real biggy but my sister who has a bad knee couldn't join us. We knew ahead and could enjoy our out-of-town guest all by ourselves......

Classic Victorian B&B

9.0

Victorian B&B with classic historic feel. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Bathroom was nice, but located outside of room. Excellent breakfast.

A little pricey for the area, and the bathroom location was unfortunate
