Lovely setting with attractive yard and garden. The Cottage, where I stayed, is charming and comfortable with a gas fireplace and jacuzzi tub, plus a shower. I had 2 delightful included breakfasts with excellent hot dishes and home-baked treats, plus a tasty fruit bowl, served on my porch. The main building is beautifully decorated with a parlor and large dining room. A special and welcoming B&B.

Lovely property and Gardens. I think Stephanie and Ron pretty much thought of everything on this restoration. Even the fresh fruit was ripe. Bring a small suitcase if your room is upstairs, very narrow curving stairs but lots of handrails. The Lipscomb room was delightful with fireplace. lovely breakfast patio.

This is just what we wanted. Close to my son’s house and felt like I was staying at someone home. It’s a beautiful historic inn that treats you like you’ve come to visit them. A lovely room and the tub and steam shower where the best way to end a long day of travel. We will definitely use again .

Our stay was absolutely perfect in every way! Breakfast was incredible (Stephanie should write a cookbook or open a restaurant!), the service was wonderful, sheets/bedding and bathrobe incredible soft, and the atmosphere of the house and grounds was so relaxing and exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway. There was nothing that we wanted or needed that we did not have at our fingertips. We will be back for sure and recommend Arrowhead Inn 10/10.

Beautiful property, but very little services available on site, no luggage storage, no one to ask questions or help with baggage up the stairs, or troubleshooting issues. There is a number you can text, but only responds during business hours. Not a good location if you will be relying on uber or lyft. Steam shower is a major plus.
