Enjoyed our stay! Sarah the owner was so helpful and super nice, and not to mention a great cook! So hearty and delicious, after tasting breakfast we decided to stay for Dinner and it was just as good. We stayed in the summer but after talking to the owner we can’t wait to head back in the winter hearing that we can get right on a snowmobile trail right from the Inn! Would definitely stay again!

It's an older place but it was very nice and quaint and quiet. The service from the front desk was fantastic. Breakfast was included with the stay. It was a made to order breakfast, which was very nice. We did have to wait a while before a server came to our table. We were the only people in the restaurant having breakfast. Food was good though.

The inn is old and in need of a lot of renovations and repair. In fact, most of the floors are uneven, the carpets are worn, the bathrooms are dated but functional, and the furniture and everything in and around the inn just looks old. And yet, the place is like a museum with antique furniture and collectibles, and old book collections and relics. If you're tired of modern, predictable hotels and motels, and want something different....this is the place to go. But if you're looking for all the usual modern fixtures and updated rooms with TV's, or an unusual home cooked breakfast, this might not be the best choice. Needless to say, it's price is reasonable but you get what you pay for.

The property had a bit of charm, enjoyed the hardwood floors and older furniture pieces. The owner was kind and provided an extra blanket and pillows that were appreciated. However found the place cluttered, had an odor, had outside furniture toppled over and the window sills needed a good vacuming. Likely, will not book again.

Would highly recommend
This was a very homey little hotel in a beautiful area. It was quiet and clean. I was traveling with my husband and two adult children and a 12 yr old. They had a room with a separate area with a door for my husband and I and two queen beds for my boys. A small breakfast was included in a sit down dining room which was a surprise. We received our ordered food quickly. The only complaint was that the juice we got was in a tiny glass.

Our room was in a rustic, older building beside the main building, with beautiful and comfortable antique furniture, a private porch overlooking a rushing river that was lovely to watch and listen to. Our king bed felt like memory foam, and very comfy! Breakfast, which was included in our stay, was cooked to order and delicious!

Not Bob Newhart's inn
Don't know where people gave it excellent ratings. Check in was like she was thinking Do I have a room? It was up a pair of steep steps. Room number one should not be rented out! The floor is not even. We're old and the slope felt like we were in a Fun house. WWE nearly stumbled several times. It is horrible. As for clean! There were black big dust bunnies. My little. Dog would walk and come up with them on his face and legs. The towels.were scratchy. The bed was too high and hard Sorry folks I've stayed in many Inns and you can't compare. There was old furniture in every corner and crack. Clean up your halls. It's no Bob Newhart Inn. You don't know Quaint. Should be a tv. The hair dryer was even broke.

The primary reason I chose the Inn was because of the balcony overlooking the river, and the fact it was advertised as non smoking. The guests in the room beneath us were smoking on their balcony, which came upwards and onto our balcony and into our room. We were offered a new room with double beds. (We had a room with a queen bed.) We refused to move, because there was no guarantee that it wouldn’t happen at the new room, too. Otherwise the Inn decor is dated, but it was clean.
