Guest Reviews

One of the best stays we’ve ever had. Every detail was beautifully thought out—from the stunning room (robes, full-length mirror, cookies!) to the warm service, fresh afternoon coffee, easy-to-use digital guide, and deliciously fresh breakfast. Morning coffee delivered by text, personal touches everywhere, and even the most adorable miniature donkeys in a nearby pasture. If you appreciate thoughtful details, you’ll love this place. Thank you, Matt and Kedri!

The homemade breakfast was worthy of a fine restaurant and great choices. This place is great for families, business travel, couples, events, etc. The views are beautiful, there's chickens in a coop and donkeys too. Great place to...See More

The nicest Inn we've stayed in! The room was spotless and absolutely beautiful with a delicious, home cooked breakfast included and beautiful views from the front windows. Owners have spared no detail, even leaving home baked cookies in the room on arrival. Very peaceful and easy drive to all antique shopping. Will be back for sure!
