Property has so much potential, unfortunately upkeep, mostly of the grounds and gardens is lacking. Rooms are adequately clean, but carpet is quite stained, light wasn’t working in our room, and outlets were at a premium. The assistant innkeeper was quite responsive and kind, especially with the minor issues of the light and needing an extension cord due to lack of outlets, however the larger problems lie in some of the owner’s choices. We originally had one of the smaller rooms as this was a quick visit, but both desks had appliances (coffee maker and fixings on one, and toaster oven on the other) so there was no place to set my own belongings on. There was a lovely soaking tub, and separate shower in another room, but only 2 towels and only 1 makeup wash cloth. When we unfortunately had a furry visitor scare us after we were ready for bed, we were promptly moved to another, much larger suite. This one had plenty of towels, an open desk, but no coffee maker. The parlor was lovely, with a coffee maker, to go treats, pizza oven and microwave, but unfortunately the power went out in that room when making coffee and heating up our leftovers. Word of caution if you book on this site, full hot breakfast is not included. Overall fair nights rest, comfortable bed (but no top sheet), and kind worker. We were able to see the other rooms, and would highly recommend the Bella suite for more space, but interestingly no appliances in that one either.

Sorry, not good
Grounds very unkempt, stains in carpet, ants and spiders in room. Shower head not working properly, no information in room about anything (tv, fireplace, literally nothing). According to hostess, breakfast not included because of booking through Expedia, so extra $20 apiece for breakfast. And I’m being kind in my review.

Very livable stay. Several upcharge opportunities, so know what you are getting yourself into. (Breakfast is additional $$, late check-in is extra $$). In a residential area, very responsive host, clean, and quiet. Best part was a very social breakfast in a common dining room with other guests.

I loved the large jacuzzi tub. Little touches like candles were provided along with water, snacks and a variety of coffee, tea, cocoa, etc with a Keurig in the room and lobby. Megan was super helpful with assisting us in booking the Charter bus to the Packer game. I was contacted prior to arriving and they recommended a couple options for dinner.

Gorgeous place, top to bottom. Fabulous breakfast and the misc. amenities were top shelf. And a great value’ The ONLY reason I scored cleanliness a 4 instead of a 5 was that the carpeting in our room could have used a cleaning. Otherwise, it exceeded expectations.
