Nice location and clean. Beware the beds are really soft and the pillows over stuffed. It was tough to sleep in such a great location because we were used to firmer beds and softer pillows.
BUT WE WOULD DEFINITELY STAY THERE AGAIN.

We had a great stay. Our room was large and comfortable. It was a little odd that we never spoke to anyone, but I have never stayed at a Bed and Breakfast before. The bathroom was interesting, but i really liked it. It was very convenient to downtown as it was NYE and that was what we were looking for.

What a beautiful Victorian home. Very welcoming. Snacks and coffee were available downstairs. I was given a free upgrade to room #3 with a fantastic king bed and fireplace. There were great big towels, lots of hot water and great pillows. This property is in within walking distance of downtown right on the main street. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a really neat vintage Victorian home.
