Once you experience the warm and friendly lodging of a bed and breakfast, you'll never want to book a hotel or motel again. A bed and Breakfast offers the personal friendly touch of family style living. It's more than just a room to sleep in.

John Shipman built this gracious Victorian home in 1887 as his personal residence. Its present owners have lovingly and extensively restored the house, updating with modern conveniences, while preserving the homes original architectural details. The interior features original wood paneling, stained glass windows, a player baby grand piano, art nouveau and authentic Victorian decoration and antique furnishings. Several working fireplaces feature hand carved wood mantels and large 4-6 foot mirrors.
