A gorgeous Victorian property full of antiques and character. Excellent staff provide an elegant full breakfast. Yes, there are stairs. But this was a lovely destination stay in a quiet neighborhood. Worth every penny.

The Silver Fountain Inn is a lovely old (1871) mansion that has been converted to a B&B. Everything about our experience would have been perfect except for the fact that when we arrived, we were shown to a room without an en- suite bathroom and were directed to use the hallway bath. This wasn't horrible, but it certainly was not what we were expecting. When you book make sure to clarify that your room will have an en-suite bathroom.

We spent 3 weeks driving through Canada and the East Coast of the US and this was the best place we stayed! The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable and the breakfast was great. Everyone who works there is friendly and welcoming.

Relax with a bit of tea
The Silver Fountain Inn is a slice of nostalgia with all the comforts of home. The staff was wonderful. Everyone was so polite, kind and helpful. Our room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. If you enjoy a bit of tea this is the place. We were able to enjoy many of the different teas they had to offer. Overall this was an excellent stay.

Delighted Guests
Our second stay there because we love the Inn. Our host went above and beyond. We had an early morning event, so she graciously prepared a full and delicious breakfast for us earlier than usual. We couldn’t have asked for a better visit!

What a unique and wonderful experience! The continental breakfast is very ample and delicious. I had the goat cheese and blueberry quiche, and there are 5 outstanding complimentary breakfasts to choose from. Upon arrival, the dining area was decked out from a weekend Alice in Wonderland dinner. A beautiful and creative display. The staff was extremely accommodating. The bed was comfortable; the room a classy Victorian style. The Silver Fountain is an adventure!

Great stay, authentic breakfast and unbeatable $
Liked the place a lot, super cute and comfortable. Awesome breakfast too! Rarely do you find a B&B at this price. I think years of staying at overpriced chain hotels just your average lazy buffet style breakfast
