We stayed in the main building. The room was very nice, spaceous and very clean. The shower was a little small and it could use a handshower as well, but the water pressure was strong.
The breakfast was delicious, diverse and plentiful.
Special thanks to Shelly and her husband for making our stay very pleasant.

Lovely, romantic and quiet bed & breakfast. The rooms are charming, very comfortable and welcoming. The staff is top notch, friendly and extremely helpful. Shelley & Drew made our stay to celebrate my husband’s birthday into the best experience that we have ever had at a bed & breakfast. The breakfast was delicious. We will definitely return in the future, we left wishing we had booked more nights there.
