Just back from our stay here and happy to report the place is as good as others say. Great location, VERY friendly inn keeper and lovely, seasoned rooms. The building was erected in 1865. If you like history, this place is your thing. Historical, BUT with all the modern appointments that made our stay comfortable and pleasant.

Proprietor Bob is a friendly man with all the right stuff to be a host. The property and rooms are immaculate, everything works and there are some nice amenities including a huge swimming pool, 24/7 coffee and tea, microwave and fridge upstairs and AC in every room, plus ceiling fans and Wifi. Lovely decor too and the little things like scented towels and delightful shower cosmetics. plus hot, hot water, good water pressure in the shower, and thick terry robes in each room make this a cozy sport to hang your hat after a busy day out exploring the environs.

Breakfast was fresh, hot and delicious and Bob was flexible with creating offerings based on our preferences.

We did not leave for 90 minutes after check out because we spent the time chatting with Bob, he is that personable.

We have spent much time at B&Bs here and in Europe. this place gets five stars!

Stayed in the Gala Suite at the Cider Mill Inn during a recent getaway to Pine Island, NY. Very quaint and comfortable accomodations with a hot tub and pool in a Victorian house built in 1865 decorated with antique furnishings. The hosts Bob and Carol are just lovely people and the scones are the best I’ve ever had! The bed was very comfortable(firm and supportive with a soft feel) and the jacuzzi tub in the bathroom was wonderful! If you want a relaxing stay in the country the Cider Mill Inn is your best bet.

A beautiful cozy authentic inn in a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The Gala Suite was roomy and very comfortable. The host, Bob, was welcoming and friendly. The four course breakfast was excellent, especially the scones made by Bob. We plan to return in the near future.

This B&B was on a list provided by a food tour company for an event I attended in Beacon. (I have since alerted the company of my experience.)

When I arrived, the first thing I noticed was that the front yard could use some tidying up. Some of the container plants had seen better days.

The owner was quite chatty, which normally would not be an issue except that I had been driving for a while and wanted to get settled in and use the restroom!

I did appreciate his flexibility in serving my breakfast the next day a bit early so I could get to my tour on time, since I had a 45-minute drive. The baked goods and fruit were a good start to breakfast. The egg frittata was hot and tasty, if a bit salty. The sausage link looked and tasted like a Hot Dog. And tater tots?! Is that now considered a gourmet breakfast? The second morning breakfast entree was disappointing. So much butter on the eggs that they tasted greasy, overly done bacon, overly sweet French toast. Good scone, at least. I was thankful for the fridge with water and Diet Coke.

My biggest concerns were the extension cord and outlet situations (see pictures) and the extensive mineral buildup on the shower head. One, a potential fire hazard, and the other just gross.

We tried calling several times 5,6,7 days out to cancel a two night stay and voicemail was always full. They would call me back from a different number (which is shady in itself) and say we had to settle with Travelocity wiht the matter. Travelocity tried calling them but they never got back to them. The result is we got stuck with bill for two nights...even though we had try to cancel 7, 6, and 5 days out with outreach to them.shame on them as we wanted to go back on a weekend where we can make it back..In the spirit of being a good business, you should refund us the money. Perhaps you will return this note. Since you didn't return calls from Travelocity to refund us.

You go to a B&B to relax, have a home away from home experience. Here you live in a environment that is dirty, unkempt and uncomfortable. The rooms have dirty of color carpets, the towels are stiff and unpleasant smelling. At the top of the stairs they have an apartment type refrigerator with a few BJ's water bottles. The front porch is covered with decorations and junk from seasonal holiday decorations from years past. Honestly I think Ma and PA Kettle reside here. If this is what reviewers measure a B&B standard by they are sincerely off the mark.

We ended up pulling up to this run down "haunted house" and I was afraid to get out of the car. The owner "greeted" me at the door which he would not open, or barely, saying, well you're too early we need time to get your room ready, go hike the trail or go to a cider mill or orchard then promptly shut the door. Incredibly rude. Did I mention his rotten teeth? We then scrolled back through reviews and realized the true ones were the bad reviews! We lost our money and booked the holiday inn nearby instead. Truly awful that they are passing their run down House off as a charming B and B. Ugh! run away fast from this one!

As expected for a B&B in a house built in the 1880’s...authentic, a little dusty-musty, needed some yard work and a deep cleaning. But expecting that makes the visit more charming and less annoying. Kind of like going to visit a great-aunt's house.

Host, Bob was doing all the work himself, and probably could have used an extra hand. Yet, he saw after all our needs, and proved to be a hospitable and friendly host. Kudos for yummy breakfasts...needed a nap after!

We completely forgot about the hot tub, so don't know if it was useable, but the swimming pool water was green. Cortland room was quaint with a teeny bathroom (but glad to have private one). Bed and pillows were reasonably comfortable, but not heavenly.

We were so pleased with our stay at the Cider Mill Inn. The decor is charming and the innkeepers are lovely! They made up books of different area activities, places to visit, restaurant recommendations, etc., which was so helpful. The breakfast served each morning is out of this world! 4 courses, all homemade with love. Coffee and a refrigerator stocked with cold drinks is available around the clock. I would highly recommend this place, great for couples and families alike. It's a hidden gem and an incredible value.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a nice bed and breakfast to stay at after spending the day at the warwick winery. We found this place via Orbitz and it seemed to have decent reviews compared to other hotels in the area but what a mistake. They have a strict policy regarding check in time being between 3pm and 6pm, so we arrived at 3pm only to find the door locked and no one to answer as we knocked on the door several times. We tried calling the phone number provided but got a voicemail mailbox that was full. We called for about an hour as we sat on the front steps hoping someone would answer or open the door for us. Finally we got in touch with the owner Bob who advises his daughter would let us in. Minutes later we heard the door unlock, never were we greeted by anyone just heard the door unlock. Went to open the door and it was magically unlocked. This should of been our second red flag but we decided to continue on. We went up to the room put our bags down and my gf saw a large bug on the floor. No big deal I killed it then went to turn the air conditioner down and there were atleast a dozen more bugs! It was disgusting. We packed our bags and ran out! Tried calling the owner but again was unable to get in contact with him. Finally called orbitz who after several hours were able to get in touch with the owner he refused to give us our money back and said that we used the room and we lied about the bugs. Attached r the pics of some of the bugs. STAY AWAY! Not to mention the pool was green and looked disgusting along with the rest of the property that was dirty and unkept.
