My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bidwell House. Our hosts were gracious, friendly, and knowledgeable about the surrounding area's activities and dining options. They went the extra mile to help us with our late check-in. Delicious light breakfasts were prepared and served with warm smiles, and we enjoyed chatting with other guests as we relaxed in the mornings and evenings. We felt right at home!

The property is very cozy, clean, located close to the lake, just across the beautiful meadow. The owners are very friendly, helped us with advice of choosing the best trails for the day. Every day the owner prepared different breakfast and it was always so delicious! We really enjoyed our stay there.
