This is a quaint, historic inn and has the antique furniture and period wallpaper to give the proper ambience. Sarah Levy, the innkeeper, was terrific, the food was excellent, and I loved being able to look out the windows of the diningroom to watch the hummingbirds, other birds (black-backed woodpecker!) and stream. Lovely and relaxing-- just what I was seeking.

This property is great if you are looking for an Inn right on the river to lull you to sleep. Where bald eagles and osprey fly by while you are eating a delicious homemade breakfast. Swim in the river or just sit and cool your feet. The pierce bridge is a local icon that is within walking distance. The beds are comfy. The people are welcoming. It’s just a really nice place that I will be back to.

Staff was wonderful and gracious. We made the mistake of booking the annex where they allow dogs. Someone left a tied up plastic bag baggie with poop under the outdoor stairs in the annex. It was still there a day later when we left. They would do better to not allow dogs for the cleanliness and enjoyment of other patrons. Interior rooms in the annex are clean but very worn and old and in need of a paint job.

The rooms were clean and inviting. The staff was awesome. We were especially happy with the service provided by Sarah, Rhonda, and Mariah. They made us feel right at home, and offered advice about things to do in the area. When I returned from a hike with a sprained ankle they were especially helpful.
