When making an advance booking involving a Saturday night, we are asking for a two night minimum stay.

Please call ahead if you are interested in a single Saturday night and we will put you on our waiting list. THERE IS NEVER A MINIMUM STAY REQUIREMENT FOR ANY OTHER NIGHT!

We are especially proud that so many of our visitors felt like they have had a ""home away from home"". As we enter our fourth year and are seeing our guests return again and again, we really feel like they are family! Many of our patrons rave about our breakfasts, especially our Eggs Benedict, and are glad we consider their individual dietary needs, whether that be vegetarian, allergies, Weight Watchers Points, or an extreme aversion to mushrooms! Other things our guests appreciate are that there is always ample parking, plenty of hot water, and individual room heaters/air conditioners which allow them to be very comfortable. We like to boast that our very diverse library promises to offer something to interest everybody, and our front porch is ideal for enjoying a glass of wine. Our guests like that our elegant decor is not overly feminine and though we do not have TVs in our rooms, one can be placed there at your request. Our rooms are very quiet and private, with no bedroom sharing a wall with another, and with all our bathrooms adjoining their room. We are always within reach, but we do not hover. When possible, we try to accommodate an early or late check-in time, with prior notice. "
