    We had a really lovely stay at this charming B&B in a beautiful old colonial house. Our room was cute, clean, and full of character—perfect for a cozy night away. The owners, Tracy and Jim, were fantastic hosts. They were welcoming, helpful, and patiently answered all my questions. The overall atmosphere was bright, kind, and inviting—like staying at a friend’s home. Breakfast was a definite highlight: home-cooked, delicious, and clearly made with care. Would absolutely recommend, and we’d love to come back!

We were treated like friends from the start of our stay. The B&B is amazing from the 1764 build date to the links to the Revolutionary War and the Underground Railroad. Breakfasts were like dining in a 5 star restaurant. Very imaginative and delicious! The chefs/hosts could work in any 5 star restaurant and be a hit

    We stayed here for one night on our New England fall road trip. While it was a bit off the beaten path, the location was absolutely beautiful. In the morning, a warm, home-cooked meal was provided, and it was delicious! The sunroom where we were served had a gorgeous view of the property. Although it was a bit of a gloomy day, it felt so cozy and was the perfect way to start our morning. My friend even fell in love with their mugs and bought one as a souvenir. To get to our room, we had to navigate a steep and narrow staircase, but the owner kindly helped us and carried our luggage. The room was spacious, and the property itself had a lot of historic charm. A lovely stay overall!
