This is a charming inn with well-appointed rooms and a beautiful location, however there were some significant problems.
We booked a three-day getaway to this Inn to take advantage of the peaceful location, fishing, and swimming pool. The cost is quite pricey for a B & B (we are seasoned B & B'ers) but the pool and fishing made it very attractive and worth the extra costs.
First, the location was not peaceful: There is a train trestle about a few hundred yards from the inn and the trains roar past every two hours in the middle of the night, sounding their horns. This starts at about 6pm and ends at about 6am. If you are a light sleeper, do not stay here. Some good quality ear-plugs purchased at 4am from the local drugstore helped us get some sleep during our stay. We wondered why the owners didn't discretely leave a bag of earplugs in the night stand as a courtesy to guests.
Second, the fishing was fantastic, but the paddle-boat promised on the website no longer exists and the canoe needed some TLC before it would be usable. I dropped several hints to the owner that we wanted to use it and he made no effort to tidy it up for us.
Third, the pool was dirty the entire time we stayed (three days). Again, I dropped hints that I wanted to use the pool, but nothing was done to clear out the leaves, grunge, etc. that had accumulated on the bottom. We avoided the hot tub fearing a similar state.
Fourth, the breakfast is mediocre. FYI - a hot breakfast is prepared and left on a hot plate on the weekends. On weekdays, there is a continental breakfast and you fend for yourself. Our experience at other B & Bs is that a hot breakfast is prepared every morning. Again, for a pricey B & B this was below our expectations.
In general, this is a lovely inn with great potential that is being poorly managed. For people passing through the area, one night's stay (with earplugs) will probably be just fine, even pleasant, but I would not recommend longer stays.
