Extraordinary inn - the place, the hospitality, the breakfast. All so good
Excellent accommodations and gracious hosts. The house was decorated nicely for Halloween. Our room was very comfortable and we also enjoyed relaxing and reading on their front and back porch. The breakfast was excellent with a number of inviting options to choose from. And fittingly given their location, they had an extensive bourbon selection. As a bonus, Jeremy makes an excellent Black Walnut old fashioned.
We will definitely visit again.
