This was an excellent place to spend a couple of nights while on vacation! My wife and I stayed in the Regal Manor room which was comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was delicious and staff was very attentive. Only about 20 minutes from the Indiana Dunes and there are plenty of food options in and around La Porte. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet getaway!

Wanted to see the Prancer filming sites in Three Oaks, New Carlisle, and La Porte. Stumbled upon Arbor Hill on TripAdvisor and it did not disappoint. The wife has been working at the hospital umpteen hours and extra because of the spike. I needed to give her a nice respite. Laura is a super host and it was just such a pleasant stay in this WA Jones estate. The 100 plus year original woodwork is beautiful and the front pillars give it a southern charm. I haven’t even had breakfast yet but it smells good and anticipating gourmet quality. We stayed in the Victory Garden with a super comfy Simmons King, gas fireplace, and the wife loves the wicker. Every detail top notch. Ok the tv is small but could eat the Michigan game 12/4/21 big ten championship blowout. Go Blue. Only negative is driveway entrance needs some work, busy frontage road but ceiling fans drowned noise out. Would like to try the Jones room or Serendipity next time for our 40th anniversary in June. Thank you Laura, just like home.…

Thank you for such kind words! It was truly a pleasure to visit with you and we love that you are "Prancer" fans. The filming for that movie had our charming historic and neighboring towns a buzz back then. We love what we do and that is to hopefully make your stay exemplary and showcase this beautiful property. The WA Jones Estate does have a little magic doesn't it? Please do come and see us again! Laura

The Arbor Hill Inn is a beautifully restored and lovingly cared-for home built around 1910. The breakfast is generous, delicious, and graciously served at your table by a most attentive staff who remember your preferences from morning to morning. The furnishings and architecture of the common areas add to the pleasure of breakfast. When I visited, staff was very accessible throughout the day to see to my various needs. My room was elegantly decorated and blindingly CLEAN. I particularly enjoyed relaxing on the upstairs porch. I hope to return someday--I would really love for my husband to experience the Arbor Hill Inn. I know he will enjoy it!

Honestly, we live one county East, this was our second stay at Arbor Hill. Location is fabulous (easy to find restaurants for dinner), the rooms are perfect - the individual decor makes each room special, staff and owners are kind and so respectful, AND breakfast is delicious! A definite favorite tiny break!

Such a pleasant home environment and delicious breakfasts! Hosts are so helpful and kind! Highly recommend this inn! Even has a fascinating history of the original owners. Hard working folk who left a home as a legacy that the current owners totally restored. Amazing interior design!

Wonderful bnb. We've been to bnbs all over New England and this is one of our favorites now. Chris, Laura. Kelly were the best hosts. House is so well appointed, cozy communal living room, dining areas made you feel like you were dining in your own home. Beds so comfortable, and pillows perfect. The rooms were spotless and towels were extra large and felt and looked new. Breakfast each day of our 6 day stay was something new and delicious. Great chefs. Great Inn!

This is an exceptional B&B. It was an exceptionally pleasant and memorable stay. The ladies accommodated us in every way going above and beyond the expected. It felt as though we were in a comfortable welcoming home with hosts that genuinely cared. Breakfast was outstanding and a special thanks to Kris for helping me pick a gift for my daughter. Arbor Hill Inn....a special Inn run by special people..
