We came upon The Oakwood Inn by chance while visiting a loved one in a care facility 2 miles from the Inn. It was also our wedding anniversary. From reading all the excellent reviews, we decided to stay. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and charming. Bridgette and Bill provided 5 star hospitality will all the small details. Breakfast was delicious every morning. We will definitely be back.

What a unique and beautiful place to stay. We picked this place to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. It was perfect! The owners were the best. Bridget prepared the best breakfast for us. Truly felt pampered. Loved chatting with Bill who also made our breakfast special...I hope we can plan a return trip soon.

Large beautiful rooms. Bridget and Bill were generous hosts. My sisters and husband's spent 3 nights. The grounds are beautiful with Oak trees providing private shady seating and gathering spaces. Three course gourmet breakfast was a bonus!! We are so glad we chose Oakwood Inn.
