The Glengower was nearly perfect in every way. I say “nearly” because total perfection is elusive. The property absolutely gleams. The decor is spot on—antique photos and maps abound. The staff is gracious and professional: Daniel and Liv, who we saw the most often, are standouts.

Open day overnight

We had an amazing overnight stay at the Glengower. The host was very kind after a very long trip and took time explain everything. The room was tidy and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and the server couldn't be more helpful. Would definitely recommend and hopefully return. The view from our room window was amazing.
