This is a fabulous Bed and Breakfast in the old style not found much today in modern America. The house is big and charming and inviting. Even in the rain we could happy sit on the wrap around porch looking at the other historic houses nearby. The breakfast component was beyond delicious. Audrey the owner/chef is happy to accomodate dietary needs and clearly loves to cook and bake. The room was warm and cozy...as well as cooled when necessary with central air. This is a true gem and a super find. Ten stars.
Audrey was a lovely host, explaining all the housekeeping things from keyless entry to available snack and beverage options. Our breakfast was amazing- delicious! We won't forget The Whistling Swan Bed & Breakfast - and will recommend it to anyone who will be traveling in that area!
It’s a cute space and rooms are very cute. The walkway from the parking lot to main entrance could be more convenient and lit up especially the gravel part of the walkway. Overall cute place I’d visit again
Every morning we had a wide range of choices for breakfast, freshly cooked each morning. Fresh sour dough bread and home made yogurt. The rooms were clean and filled with antique furniture and little decorative items. Very charming!
We stayed in the Waterloo Village, and it was very comfortable. We like a firm bed and this one was very comfortable. The view from the room is the garden with fountain. The room and bath were clean, and the bath had a heat lamp which was nice. Breakfast was excellent and the cookies available in the afternoon were a pleasant treat. The hostess was always pleasant and friendly.
A really lovely place, with a beautiful garden around it and a spacious, inviting veranda. My room was serene and pretty. The breakfast choices were amazing and I really enjoyed the option of having mine outside. And there are lots of really comfortable public areas for relaxing inside as well. Seems like it would be a great place to stay in any season!
What a great Inn! The service was wonderful and the Inn itself had so much character. Please keep in mind that the Inn is old and the rooms are small, but if you’re looking for a unique stay with great service, you will not be disappointed. We had to get an early start and requested to go breakfasts which were homemade and ready when promised. Highly recommend!
Audry, the owner, was super accommodating and attentive to a surprise weekend I planned for me and my husband. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast options (which she cooked up herself!) were great. Getting away from a big city for 24 hours and walking into this building took me back in time to a much quieter ambiance. It was a great experience!
The owner is fabulous! So hospitable and welcoming!

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The owner was very nice, bedroom was clean, breakfast was good. The outside was unkept, some flowers - however most flower pots were empty, porch needs painting, old wicker furniture on the porch looked dirty but needs painting. Entrance in house very dark and dreary. The furniture is old and felt dirty but wasn’t. The Inn and property looked nothing like the pictures online. I believe it could be beautiful with some painting and sprucing up. I had no problems sleeping and the coffee was great!
The house is beautiful. In a quiet area. Parking is good. It’s behind the property. Audrey is super nice, friendly and makes you feel at home. I’m gluten free and she made a GF breakfast for me. Including blueberry pancakes! She even brought a GF cupcake for a treat for me :-) She and I spoke prior to our arrival. If you have celiac disease, she works with someone to provide GF choices. Snacks and drinks were always available. Stayed in the Waterloo Village Suite. It’s not as large as it appears in the pictures but it’s a nice room. Overall, everything was great and we would stay there again.
A wonderful B&B!....Beautifully decorated...fresh cooked breakfast (sausages, spinach quiche, fruit cup with yogart, croissants & cake, OJ & coffee)....Theresa was soooo nice
