We found out a few days in advance that we were upgraded to the Leeds Room, a larger room with jacuzzi, king bed, and separate tile shower from our originally booked Noyes Room because we were frequent customers. Also, our confirmation letter included a handsome Christmas tree ornament!
We do indeed frequently stay here because my parents live a very short distance away and it's convenient to stay here. The inn continues to provide us with very clean accommodations, comfortable beds, and an airy room with cathedral ceilings and a lake view that's warm and cozy at night. Breakfast is served in the Inn's dining room, or we typically bring it to our room where there is a table for two. Coffee is served in the hallway and is pretty much unlimited. Breakfast of muffins, yogurt, coffee, and orange juice is fresh and substantial enough. The people at the front desk and inn are still as welcoming and friendly as can be.

We look forward to our next visit!

This is the best B & B we have ever been too. We had Johnson Suite 202 which is beyond words lovely. The suite is so warm, homey and inviting. The bathroom with the great tub and unbelievable shower---worth the visit alone.

The Living Room and Bedroom each have their own TV and Fireplace---so gorgeous. The bed is not only outstanding, but so comfortable. Breakfast is delicious.

If you have never been to Smithville you have really missed something. We have never been away from home and family on Christmas Eve and Christmas, but this year we selected The Colonial Inn and it was one of our best holidays ever.

We enjoyed a great lunch at the Smithville Inn with a table by the window overlooking the lake. The village and shops were all lighted and decorated so beautifully. At 5:30 p.m they had a lighted Tree show on the lake which was fabulous.

This was a perfect holiday thanks to The Colonial Inn---a place that we will visit more often. Thank you!

Stayed at the Colonial Inn after a bridal shower held in Historic Smithville, NJ. The Inn has rooms throughout the property. Our room was in the newest section called The Barn, located on the perimeter overlooking the "village". Beautifully decorated, excellent bedding (we had a room with 2 queens), HUGE bathroom, all spotlessly clean! It was perfect for my daughter and I. There are different room types available depending (suites, kings, etc.) You can view a number of the rooms on their website. Continental breakfast is included in the rate and you can either enjoy it in the little cafe onsite, or take it back to your room. There was a mini-fridge and coffeemaker, as well as small table & chairs in our room. Loved the electric fireplace! A perfect place to stay to enjoy the shopping, the nearby beaches and-- you are about 20 minutes north of Atlantic City! Historic Smithville is less than 10 minutes from the Garden State Parkway exit 48.
Historic Smithville is a "village" made up of little shops and restaurants, with a lake dividing it. There are paddle boats available along with a carousel and mini Steam Train. The shops offer something for everyone. You can have a quick meal at a couple of places, "Pub Grub" at Fred & Ethel's (with a full bar and beer on tap) or for elegant dining, the Smithville Inn.
The Colonial Inn and Historic Smithville are always decorated for the seasons...but Christmastime is especially beautiful! Don't miss it!

I cannot say enough about our experience at the Barn portion of the Colonial Inn. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family. They allowed us to check in early, and set aside parking for us, even during the crowded Irish Festival. Our room was very big, with an adorable America theme, While the decor was country and quaint, the bathroom and such were completely modern and large and clean. It was great to have a room that was walkout to the grounds, and it was right in the area with all the shops. The little kiddie train went right past our room.
In addition, we were told to come over to the cafe in the morning and they would fill our basket with breakfast, including a muffin, coffee or tea, yogurt, juice, etc. We filled our basket and brought it back to our room for a nice breakfast. They also offer cookies for guests in the afternoon and you can stop in and get a drink any time.
The people who were worked there were extremely nice and helpful, and they treated you as if they knew you. It was a pleasure to stay here and we can't wait to do it again!
