I had a great stay. The building has a lot of history and the grounds are amazing. There is a swimming pool which is large enough to do laps. The staff are friendly and my room was exceptionally clean.

A wonderful stay at a magnificent estate. Hosts were great and breakfast was fabulous. The mansion and grounds were amazing. We hope to stay again!
The Blaylock mansion was such a unique and cool accommodation to stay at. It is conveniently located just 10 min away from the fun Baker street shopping hub but far enough away to enjoy the quiet lake side view. The hosts were incredibly hospitable and there was always great coffee ready with fresh fruit in the morning. The room was clean and quiet. Highly recommend staying here!

My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at this mansion! The amount of time you can spend
The rooms was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The grounds surrounding the Mansion were absolutely amazing. The history of the place alone was worth the booking. Had a nice swim in the pool as well. One of the coolest places i have ever stayed at.
What a delightful and enchanting property this is. My friend and I stayed there for the first time this year and we plan on going back. I want to share it with my whole family! Hopefully I can make that happen.
This property was amazing! The mansion was so beautiful and the owners were the most hospitable people we have ever encountered! The grounds were so beautiful and peaceful. The history of mansion was amazing, each room had information and the decor was beautiful!
We had a great time on our stay here. The hosts are wonderful and make an amazing breakfast. Would highly recommend staying here. It was such a treat to stay in an 85 year old mansion and to hear the history behind it and the walk up to the garden is beautiful and so peaceful!
