Beautiful place!! I loved how it was decorated, the colors in the bathroom. Beautiful view of the lake. The outdoor sauna was super cool!! The beds were very comfy. The jacuzzi tub and fireplace were so relaxing. The only thing I wish there was, was darkening curtains. There is a lot of natural lightening in these rooms which is great! But it was a bit blinding in the morning

Nice place, Have been there before, Booked on the day of arrival, so understand that coffee, popcorn ... isn't stocked. But, couldn't get the ceiling light switch to work. Nice sauna. May have tried it if I hadn't arrived so late. Looking forward to you planting the grounds. Love the sound of the creek.

The GG Barnum mansion was awesome for a weekend stay! Very clean, easy check-in instructions, delicious fresh baked pastries for breakfast. The Pilothouse Suite was also very clean and private, at the end of the second floor hallway. The room was a bit smaller than I expected from photos, but still enough space for two. Highly recommend for a great stay!

We had an amazing stay, at this gorgeous historic property! I love the aspect of just letting ourselves in, felt so much like coming home to a beautiful top floor apartment of our own! We were in town visiting family and wanted our own place close by, and this was perfect! Loved the homemade breakfast pastries, and made coffee in our room, but there was a whole big pot ready for us downstairs in the piano room. Just so beautiful, and the big windows offered incredible views of the leaves changing colors from the big front porch and our room! Loved the hot tub after a long day hiking and visiting! Thank you so much for providing a unique, historical experience, so much better than a generic hotel! Will for sure stay again!
