“Room was Perfect”
Pat & Marcus S8/11/2011
Thank you all for one of the best anniversaries we have had in 35 years! The room was perfect – we slept with the door open each night and were awakened by the birds – how lovely. The food was divine. Everyone was warm and inviting, including Ozzi – what a wonderful inn dog.
