EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!! The husband and wife host of The Beechwood Inn “Eli & Marlon were some of the nicest and most respectful people that I have ever met! They had exceptional service, exceptional wine and let me tell you the “breakfast” and the “appetizer” food that came included with the stay was amazing! All of the food was homemade by the wife on-site and looked like “Gordon Ramsey” approved! We stayed here for our 10 year anniversary and were 100% satisfied. The rooms did not have a tv to watch but I liked it because it made me and my wife talk more and read some books together and of course we were gone a lot exploring the downtown! The town of Clayton was perfect for us too! The husband host was very knowledgeable about the town and about things to do and places to go and places to eat and recommend a lot for us and a lot of the things we did! 10/10 for this stay and we WILL be coming back. Thank you Eli & Marlon for the exceptional experience at beechwood inn!!!! We loved it. 💯
We decided to try The Beechwood for our annual Girls Trip and are so glad we did!

Our stay at Beechwood Inn Bed & Breakfast was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end! ( we stayed only one night. Wish we stayed longer )
The location is perfect, and from the moment we set foot on the property, we were warmly welcomed by our host, Marlon, who immediately made us feel at home.
Every detail of the inn has been thoughtfully designed, blending comfort, elegance, and aesthetics beautifully.
The rooms—which are more like luxurious suites—are beautifully decorated and exceptionally well appointed. It’s clear that every little detail has been considered, with amenities and thoughtful touches that anticipate your needs before you even realize them. Marlon graciously credits his lovely wife, Eli, for the beautiful design, and her talent truly shines throughout the inn.
The afternoon wine was a delightful touch, and breakfast was simply amazing! Both added to the feeling of being genuinely cared for.
Having stayed at many bed and breakfasts over the years, we can confidently say that Beechwood Inn ranks among our top five favorites.
Thank you, Eli and Marlon for your warm and Gracious hospitality.
Glad we got to meet Host ( their gorgeous dog)
