“Loved it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 10, 2008

I echo everyone else's reviews of this B&B - it is lovely. We stayed with Susan for a total of three nights on our visit to the Rockies.

We were very pleased with our room (Larch), the en-suite, the kitchen facilities. Bed was very comfortable, breakfast perfect (especially the pancakes!).

Susan makes a great and knowledgeable host. Thanks Susan for a lovely stay.

“Quiet, Great Breakfasts”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 26, 2008

The Poplar Inn is readily accessible from the highway but is, thankfully, away from the center of town. Quiet location, with tastefully decorated rooms (numbering only two). the guest rooms have a separate entrance, so you can come and go as you please. Susan makes terrific breakfasts (different each day) and is very gracious. A two day stay wasn't enough, so we will be back.

“Excellent guest house”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 23, 2008

This is a beautiful guest house. Everything was immaculate and the room was a good size with doors leading onto a patio overlooking beautiful gardens. The location is also very good just a short walk into centre,but nice and quiet set in residential area. Susan was very friendly and served a lovely breakfast. We enjoyed our stay here.

“Lovely Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 16, 2008

This is a lovely bed and breakfast. The home is new, spotless, tastefully furnished, with separate private quarters and common room, with frig and micro wave, for guests. Sliding glass doors to individual decks. Beautiful views, garden, screened summer house. Quiet location, 2 minute walk to center city. Susan was a very friendly, down-to-earth hostess who prepared wonderful gourmet breakfasts and offered good touring advice The room with private bath and king bed was a tad crowded, but overall this was a wonderful place.
