Eric and Rochelle (and Tanya, of course) have created one of the most inviting and comfortable B&B experiences we’ve ever had. The house itself is beautiful, of course, and tastefully decorated for Christmas. But the big story here is the pleasant personalities we encountered and the warm atmosphere they create for their guests. While this was our first visit to Mason Cottage, Eric made us feel like old friends. Our room was beautifully appointed, breakfasts were tasty, local advice was on point, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice of B&Bs. It will NOT be our last visit here! Thanks Eric, Ro and Tanya.

Ver nice staff. Everything in the room was fine. Breakfast was very good and innovative. Staff was knowledgeable about events and places around town. Nice area to read by the chimney could use a dedicated reading light. climate control in the Columbia room was individual for bathroom which is a very good idea. One is able to keep the room itself a little cooler than the bathroom!
