We loved our stay at this charming historic inn. From quaint, quiet “parlors” to large, rocking-chair filled porches with a beautiful mountain lake view, it was a wonderful, peaceful week of relaxation.

If you are interested in an uber conservative stay this is the place for you. Very scenic view. Rooms comparable to Motel 6. Space and rooms are dated. Small bathrooms. Friendly Staff.

Nice, quiet, economical overnight stay. Would like to see a stair to the lake. Roads were narrow and unsafe to walk.

Awesome stay! I do wish that the trolley had started running at the beginning of the weekend (it was Memorial Day weekend and the pool opened Saturday but no trolley until Sunday). Everything was great with the room. The only complaint is that the beds are not incredibly comfortable but would not keep us from returning. Looking forward to our next trip!

This is a very old establishment. The rooms are smaller than the room on a cruise ship. They offer a breakfast but it is not located on the property. It is about a 1/4 mile away in another facility.
