My husband and I like everything about this property. It's a unique, beautifully-decorated inn. Clean and comfortable. Delicious breakfasts served in a breathtaking dining room. Within walking distance to beautiful Kezar Lake. We've spent weekends here three years in a row, and hope to continue the tradition.

We should have called the Inn to book our stay. Hotels.com booked one instead of two days stay so we had to leave the Inn on Thanksgiving Day. The staff was friendly and genuine.

Everything is excellent except for the shower. It’s old-fashioned and aesthetically beautiful but a potential accident waiting to happen. It’s very slippery and the tub is a little high to get in especially for shorter and elderly people. I slipped and slid while taking a shower but thankfully it was a slow fall on my bum so no injury occurred. Some guests may not be as lucky.

The owners are so kind, friendly, and thoughtful! I stayed here the night before the eclipse, and because they knew people wanted to leave early the next day to beat the eclipse traffic, they moved up the start of breakfast (poached eggs and bacon hash, yum!) an hour.
The hotel is beautiful and has wonderful views of the surroundings, including the lake, from windows. There is a nice loop around the lake that can be done, and hiking trails nearby.
There is a cozy atmosphere in the winter, when there will be small fires burning in the common areas where guests can mingle and relax.

The breakfasts were all outstanding!
My room was really stuffy and stale smelling with no ventilation. The one window had an air conditioner in it, making fresh air impossible. Not having the clean NH air and coolness at night was disappointing. I had to rely on the air conditioner and a loud fan. There was not a mixer for the hot and cold water in the shower. I fully understand that the Inn was built long before air conditioning and cannot be retrofitted.

We stayed here with family for a graduation. The Inn is conveniently located near Colby Sawyer and not too far from dining options.
The owners were very hospitable providing home baked pop tarts and coffee/tea. The breakfast was delicious and lovely. We enjoyed our stay!
