This is my 3rd time to stay here this year! It is down the street from my parents and it is amazing! I brought a friend last time and my sister this time. You won’t find any place as nice and clean as Roots Retreat for miles in these parts. Thank you, “RR” for such a comfortable and enjoyable stay❤️!

Great location. The staff was very helpful and kind. The room was clean and quiet. Decorated very cute and was thoughtful of every detail of what a guest would need. The lobby had snacks and a coffee bar that again was well thought out and provided something for everyone. Beautiful patio area out front to gather with friends and family.

I am a traveling wind tech and stay in motels all year. The room and facility was the best I’ve stayed in all year and at a really good price point. If you’re a traveling worker near Seymour, this is a top option.

This place is a hidden gem! Driving up, I immediately felt like I was entering a little oasis; the building was so inviting and the interior common areas and my room were so well decorated and furnished. I had excellent communication with the owners about how to access my room and the lodge and where to find things. The bed was one of the most comfortable I've had while traveling, and all of the amenities were outstanding! I really appreciated the restaurant recommendations. I lucked out and it was ribeye night at the Long Branch Roadhouse… amazing meal! I'm tempted to find a reason to come back, even without a work trip, just so I can stay here again!

A blessing

My father was in the hospital in Seymour and passed away the evening I stayed at the inn. The comfort and beauty of my room and the property goes without words. The owners have taken such care and love in creating this space. A beautiful reprieve from such a terrible situation. Thank you.
