My husband and I recently stayed at the Dinsmore and had a fantastic experience! The location is walking distance to many great restaurants and shopping.

We needed a quick Valentine's Day retreat, and this was a great choice. While the house and rooms were wonderful, the best part was the relaxed yet attentive owners who made you feel like it was your own home. I have been to many B&Bs where the owners either were never around or around too much, and this was a... more

We are headed to our third straight year of going to the Dinsmore House in early winter this weekend. We love it every year and I thought I should add to the glowing reviews here on trip advisor. I couldn't ask for anything more than available from the Dinsmore House. They have an incredibly friendly and accomodating staff, great location... more

Great B & B in a fabulous location and extremely helpful and friendly staff! Recommend Highly! more
