The Teacherage was very quiet, clean and relaxing. The hostess was accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed breakfast on the side porch in a country setting with birds and trees.

The innkeepers were friendly and accomodating. The location was perfect for our planned activities at nearby state parks. We appreciate the adaptive reuse of an historic structure.

Liked: Staff & service
Convient and affordable
The Teacherage was an interesting house. Historic background. The room was a bit austere, could have used a few touches, like cups/glasses/rugs (was chilly on the feet). Bathroom was simple, there again not terribly welcoming However, the host was very nice and price was good. Trash had not been emptied and mirror could have used a cleaning

B&B
We really liked the couple that run this B&B. They do all they can to make your stay great. It is differently not make for longer stays then a few nights No tv in room, had to share a bathroom, we were in the up stairs bedroom, hard stairs to climb and the most hardest thing was we had to be quite all the time like at 7pm we were asked to be quiet.
