"The staff was great, everyone was very courteous and helpful. The rooms are clean, but could use some updates. I realize it’s a very old Inn with a lot of history and memories and we loved hearing all the memories families have created there. YetI feel it could use some new paint in the rooms and updated windows. Other then that it was a great relaxing experience. We look forward to going back! The restaurant food was exceptional!!"
