We had a wonderful, short stay here. The owners had it decorated perfectly for the holidays! The owners were inviting and very attentive. With this being my first stay at a B&B, I was not sure what to expect. The owners did not hover or intrude, but if you needed something, they were right there. We plan to visit again real soon! I highly recommend this place!
