Great B&B
Great bed and breakfast. The house was beautiful and the room we stayed in (master suite) was fantastic. It's within walking distance to several good restaurants and bars and performing arts venue we were in town to attend. The owner was very friendly and knowledgeable and we would highly recommend this place to others.

We loved our stay at this inn. It’s a beautiful, well maintained house with lovely grounds full of mature trees lining the back yard. Our favorite was the back porch facing east; every morning we enjoyed our coffee while watching the sun rise above the trees and listening to the birds chirping. In the evenings we loved to relax there while listening to the chorus of tree frogs. The self-service style of the inn is unique. Don’t expect to be served a full breakfast but the fridge, in the beautiful dining room, is stocked with essentials. You can make yourself a simple breakfast, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and help yourself to all types of snacks throughout the day. The bedrooms are small but clean and comfortable. You have access to the whole first floor of the house where there are several nicely decorated rooms, including the the bright dining room, couple of living rooms and the reception area. The owners, Kevin and Kristen, are super friendly. We would stay there again!
