Rowena's Inn is everything you would hope for (and more!) when staying at a Bed and Breakfast. The landscape is beautiful with the inn next to the river, nestled between mountains. The Sandpiper Golf Club is right next door, in fact they share a parking lot. Also on the property is a restaurant, The River's Edge.
We came for an overnight Christmas party for my work.
Check in was quick- "Tracey" is an asset to the Inn; she greeted us immediately and whisked us upstairs to our room, "Ivan's Room". Beautiful, immaculate, and there's even a little vanity and sink at one end of the room. We shared a good-sized, very clean and fresh bathroom with one other room. I thought it would be awkward, but it wasn't. There was soft music playing being piped in through the headboard! and there was a small bottle of wine, a plate of cheese and fruit and a bowl of crackers waiting for us. The bed was amazingly comfortable - so much so that we realized how awful ours at home is!
The boss rented a cabin so we got see what it was like - so lovely! Wood-burning fireplace, heated slate floors, a huge bathtub, massive bed, plus a seating area and a table if you felt you needed it.
I found the rooms in the Inn to be "quaint" with antique furnishings, and the cabin was more modern. Both were gorgeous, it just depends on what you prefer.
We dined at the River's Edge Restaurant and were served the best prime rib I have ever had, along with a very good yorkshire pudding. Service was good.
I slept like a baby and went downstairs to breakfast. Oh my goodness, what a spread! Start with fruit, yogurt, granola & muffins, along with coffee and delicious orange juice. Then came breakfast! Eggs benedict with freshly-made hollandaise sauce with homestyle hashbrowns - yum!!
I would highly recommend this B&B for couples as well as companies. It would even be fun just to get a few friends up there and rent cabins. We will be back, come springtime probably, as we'd like to experience another season at Rowena's Inn.
Thank you Tracey and all the wonderful staff for making our Christmas party festive!
