We always wanted to visit the Albany / Denamrk area and didn't know where we would end up at day we were driving around. We had a guide book that mentioned several places and we sought out the Chimes as the day wore on. Luckily, they had space available. We stayed in a larger, comfortable room with a balcony and... more

We were looking at finding a retreat in the country to celebrate our one year anniversary, after viewing the website we decided chimes is where we want to stay.
