Beautiful and charming!

It’s a beautiful renevated old home. It’s in a great part of town, close to pedestrian bridge over to North Shore. It’s nice that you can walk to restaurants and a nice park by the river. We enjoyed some delicious ice cream by the river.. We loved it and would highly recommend.

Thompson house. Bluff Inn

Wonderful place. Lots of room. Easy to park. Cool enough to use the fireplaces. Easy walk to many places. Only downside was being here in the fall, they were blowing leaves before 7:00 a.m. Innkeeper was awesome!
