The room was really nice and cute. The whole place was very cute.
The staff were amazing! We were cooked breakfast every morning we stayed.
We plan to go back again sometime.
We will definitely be coming back to this Inn. The staff was wonderful, the room rates are reasonable, beds super comfortable, great breakfast...good all the way around.
This property is a gem! Everything was outstanding, from the friendly staff, the amenities, the beautiful setting, and cleanliness. Very pet friendly too!
Adorable place- loved the shared kitchen and lounge area with fireplace- felt like being home with family. Bed was comfy - very convenient to cashiers etc. ;) will stay again!!
I loved the room and the covered patio. I love that it was pet friendly. I loved the parking right near the door. I loved the free breakfast and friendly staff.
It was a little dark at night when I had to walk my dog. I had a flashlight but it did not help much.
This is a great inn. Wonderful common area with fireplace. Open for use always. Great breakfast eggs and bacon cooked to order. Our efficiency had 2 queen beds and a covered porch. Very clean. Rustic which fits environment. Nice to meet other guests and just relax.
Such a great place to stay. The owner, Julie, is so nice and extremely helpful. Her staff is fabulous as well! Great offerings for breakfast and clean and nice, cozy cute rooms! Book through the Inn.
Our room was clean and nicely outfitted with a refrigerator and coffee maker. Julie and Holly were so hospitable -- Holly made eggs and bacon for breakfast each morning and Julie brought banana bread. What a personal touch! The grounds were clean and accommodating for our (much traveled) labradoodle. Having bottled water and a stocked coffee station was a plus! The convenience to Highland and Cashiers was a bonus. We would recommend to everyone without hesitation and would stay here again! Also, it looks to be an amazing venue for family retreats with how it is set up with common areas and games.
Staff very friendly and available to help with questions when needed. We were in town just one night, wish we had more time but will definitely be back!
What a sweet little place to stay! We loved our room and the host was simply wonderful. She even cooked our breakfast each morning, with smiles and conversation! We will definitely plan on staying here again.
