We only had the opportunity to spend one night at the Silas Robbins House, but it was such a wonderful and memorable experience!
Our host, Olga, was incredibly warm, friendly, and accommodating from the moment we arrived. She gave us some great dinner recommendations and took the time to give us a tour of the beautiful historic home, sharing some of its history along the way. The house itself is absolutely gorgeous and full of character, and the beautiful gardens and flowers surrounding the property make it even more charming.
The location is fantastic, too. It’s an easy walk to the quaint downtown area, where you can explore the shops, restaurants, and local atmosphere without having to get back in the car.
And then there was breakfast! Olga prepared an incredible spread that included a fresh fruit parfait, omelet, bacon, and some absolutely scrumptious blueberry pancakes. It was easily one of the highlights of our stay and the perfect way to start the day.
Between the historic charm, beautiful gardens, convenient location, wonderful hospitality, and that amazing breakfast, we only wish we could have stayed longer. If we find ourselves back in the area, the Silas Robbins House will definitely be at the top of our list. Highly recommend!

Olga was so sweet to allow us to take pictures on the porch and inside the great room. She explained in detail refurbishment of the home and you can tell the home is well loved. Thank you again Olga.
I am totally gobsmacked by the Silas W Robbin’s house. Every room is filled with museum-level quality antiques and impeccably decorated (the fabrics in the new parlor! My god!) but it all feels approachable and comfortable. The owners are true masters of hospitality; every detail has been considered. The breakfast, as others have noted, is stunning. What a special place to have the privilege to be able to visit and stay in, for, I should add, a totally reasonable price. If you have the chance you should take it.

What was most impressive at first was the view of this historic building inside and out. The breakfast was amazing from omelet, bacon, beautifully adorned overflowed fruit cup, scrumptious homemade blueberry pancakes, syrup and whipped cream and various drinks created a filling feast cooked by owner Olga and served by husband owner Dimitri. However what was most impressive was the attentiveness and hard work of these owners. So many B & B owners are not hands on. Not the case with Olga and Dimitri. They do the work to make their guests feel pampered. I thank you and the rest of the staff and wish I could give you 10 stars instead of 5.

My daughter and I were in the area and decided to stay at this stunning Bed and Breakfast. I have to say it exceeded my expectations. It is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. It truly felt like we stepped back in time.
Every detail is absolute perfection from the furnishings and the decor right down to the luxurious towels and robes in the room.
We stayed in the Jane Robbins room and it was so lovely and comfortable.
Breakfast was divine! We had fruit salad, an omelet with toast and bacon plus blueberry pancakes. It was absolutely delicious!!
If you have the chance to stay here please do, you won’t regret it. And make sure you wander Main Street and visit the lovely shops.
