Beautiful estate. Poor service

Fern Hall is a very nice and spacious Inn located just minutes from elk mountain ski resort. There is a restaurant downstairs along with a bar and a small lounge by the fire place. The dinner was below average. Our salmon was over cooked, the scallops flatter than pancakes and dry, the chicken was dry and the rice they served as a side wish was bland and again, dry. Not to mention around $18 per plate. We had a room with a king size bed for $190 a night. We had an extra person stay in our room and the owner charged us an extra $50 for her to sleep on a stone hard, slanted, old mattress that must have been 20 years old. With the extra hundred dollars she received from this she should buy a new mattress. MOST OF IMPORTANT: If you want a successful bed and breakfast business you MUST MUST MUST put an extra emphasis on your BREAKFAST. The owner judging by the extra charges to sleep on the world’s oldest mattress doesn’t want to pay for wait staff. Fern Hall has ten bedrooms, a dining room for 12 people and ONE, yes ONE person making breakfast for everyone, busing tables, replacing empty coffee containers etc. This wasn’t just one morning but 2. And the breakfast was mediocre at best and it took 2o minutes of sitting at a dirty table (both mornings) for anyone to come out of the kitchen to greet us and offer us some coffee. DONT GO TO FERN HALL IN. Stay in a lodge by the mountain.

Gorgeous Inn amazing experience

I just got back from my second stay at Fern Hall Inn and had another wonderful time there. I golf (not ski) so prefer going when I can play on their course, which is in the backyard of the inn. The inn itself is amazing, the rooms are precious and just have a warm feeling. I personally love the food there and feel they treated everyone like family. The course is short but well maintained and has some scenic holes. I totally recommend this place its one of my favorite B&Bs I've stayed in and my gf and I are huge B&B fans!
