- Staff very friendly and welcoming - The bed was very very comfortable! - Bar/informal dining area - Beautiful walk at the back of the property with shoeshoes available if needed. - Breakfast was lovely although not very warm- would recommend the pumpkin pancakes.
- The walls are extremely thin? We could hear everything from the room next door including someone snoring the entire night. - Tranquility room is advertised on the website although does not state that it is at an additional cost. I would have thought the price of the stay to be better value had this have been included.

Beautiful old house that has been maintained and added to in some parts to make a cozy inn. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a walk in the woods on a trail behind the property.
At dinner as well as in breakfast some of the food was barely warm when it should have been hot. To be honest, we did not complain to the staff about it.

People who work in the hotel were very nice And helpful. The bed room was very good. Breakfast was very good.
The restaurant only works in the weekends. The hotel is very isolated, and there is nothing to Do in the area. It is feeling like the place had better days.

Not able to enjoy the breakfast due to our schedule.
We had to leave by 7:15 to be at an event, so we could not enjoy breakfast. Perhaps a to-go bag could have been provided, ie. pastry, granola bar, water, etc.
