This was such a gorgeous place! Just beautiful! The owner checked us in and gave us a little tour. We stayed in the Zinnia room. I thought the bed was very comfy. It had Netflix set up on the tv. The fireplace in our room didn’t work though.

We had a wonderful experience at the Frederick Stearns House Historic Inn. Love the charm of this hotel. Does not give you the routine chain hotel vibe at all. Rooms have historic feel with old hard wood floors, unique artwork and furniture that transport you back in time. Will visit again.

Great property. The bed was very comfortable. I wish they had a full breakfast option instead of tea or coffee. I thought this was going too be like a bed and breakfast Inn.

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at the Frederick Stearns house. The house was gorgeous, and we loved learning from the owner the history of the home and the work they put in restoring it. The room was quiet, clean and relaxing, and the coffee and fresh baked pastries in the morning were wonderful! Would highly recommend this stay to anyone that appreciates history, along with the comfort of a luxury hotel!
