We enjoyed our stay so much we extended it by another night! The rooms were comfortable and charming. The tavern was a great spot for dinner & a drink, and the staff for the inn were all so friendly and helpful and even gave local recommendations. We felt so welcome! We also enjoyed rocking in the rocking chairs in the porch. There is a French bakery behind the inn and we enjoyed it for breakfast each morning. And we also enjoyed walking through the historic district, which is convenient to the inn. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!

We arrived at check-in time and was greeted by the most friendliest front desk person. The Inn was very cute and clean. The best bakery ever behind the Inn! I would stay again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful New England Inn!
Such a unique and beautiful historic, quintisential New England building! Loved hearing about the history of the Inn as well as the 3 ghosts that live there! The only suggustion I would make is to upgrade the mattresses, bedding and pillows.

Read before booking- things to know
Ok, hate to give a just OK review but have to here. The staff was nice, location was good/safe, but the Inn was DATED. It was fine for us for a couple of nights but this is not the place for you if you can’t do old rickety stairs, or climb into a bathtub for the shower, or expect AC (did provide a window unit but was also old and loud), or peeling paint, stiff beds etc. It has charm but needs a major makeover. Sign in the bathroom said you may have to wait 8 mins for hot water. Again, staff was nice and location was good but you should definitely know that stuff before booking there as the rooms were non refundable. We could see it not working for many people.

Loved this place. Just what you want in an Inn. Great bar and happy hour. Great coffee and cookies. Skating rink right beside Inn. Bring your skates. French bakery in the back of the building. Dog friendly.

Beautiful old Inn, staff was really great! Had a really nice dinner in the Tavern as well. Room was pretty and sufficient but strange there’s no small fridge, microwave or coffee offered in the room. Other than that we would stay again. Maybe after the ice rink closes (music playing all night).

We stayed with our 3 children on the first floor. We enjoyed the porch and view of the pickleball court. The room was really quiet even though it is off of the main road, it was perfect for us!
