We stayed at “the deluxe” cabin. It was amazing! So big and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed for the food we brought with us. The heating units were easy to operate and keep us nice and toasty! We want to come back again soon 😁

The location is great. The bed was comfy. Everything felt clean and there were thoughtful touches like the night lite and coffee creamer. The place is quaint but dated. This was especially evident in the bathroom. Turning the water to hot made the very loud water heater in the hallway kick in. The toilet handle had to be jiggled. And everything in the bathroom needs an update. Having said all that - the price was fair. And it was clean!

We really enjoyed our stay in”Fern”. It was a charming well appointed cabin located walking distance from town. We never used our car. There were outdoor couches under the pine trees which were very nice to hang out in. Everything was clean and parking was assigned and right by our room. We would definitely stay there again.

A favorite.

We love the Fireside Inn, and stay every year when our kid goes to AstroCamp. It is the kind of place you almost don’t want to tell your friends about. Super friendly owners, very available as needed. A little routine maintenance in some of the larger cabins would not go amiss.

Nice location close to the town center. The rooms were cozy but the walls are very thin so you can hear everything in the adjoining rooms. Also the bed and pillows were quite uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good nights sleep.

Amazing room. Quant furnishes are exceptional and from the Great Depression. Bed upstairs is really close to a balcony that is open to the downstairs. Stairs railing is loose at the bottom and an issue to go to the restroom in the middle of the night with no lights. I’m older and my wife booked this and having that bathroom so far was a concern. The bathroom mirror was set for a man who’s 6’5 and she could not use it. Otherwise great room and amenities!!
