Bernadette and her staff run a first class B&B. The house is beautiful. Clean, well maintained with all the amenities. Her breakfast alone is worth the price.

Brian and Lynn were very gracious hosts. The food was delicious and plentiful, from the full breakfasts to the afternoon snacks - would love some of their cookie recipes - and the bar area stocked with water, soda, coffee, tea (yay!) and wine! Additionally they ensured we dined at great local restaurants! The wifi isn't very strong but that was the only downside to our stay. Beautiful view from their back porch.
