My wife and I went there this year for valentines day for 3 nights it was the most beautiful rooms and romantic setting we have ever seen. we checked out about 7 other places in the area and nothing even came close to the attention to detail and look of the hydrenga house. It is close to everything, off street parking. The room we stayed in was the hydrenga room it had a huge hot tub, fireplace, living room, heated towl rack, steam shower, and beautiful raised Victorian bed. The Inn keepers are amazing they went out of there way to get us everything we needed from chocolate covered strawberries to bring in Gifts for my wife daily as a surprise from me. The breakfast is to die for and the atmospher is amazing. Our two favorite rooms were the hydrenga room and the Oak room, but they are all wonderful. Trust me you will not be disappointed. This bed and breakfast exceeded our expectaions and we will definately be back again.

Me and my boyfriend wanted a wonderful place to spend out 1st Valentine's Day together and after looking online this place was the best match. It is a 4 hour drive from where we are but it was instantly worth it from the moment we saw it in the distance. The inn-keeper was friendly and welcoming, the location was perfect event for the off season, and the room was magnificent. We spent 2 lovely nights in this Inn and didnt have one complaint and could not have been more pleased. Fresh baked cookies every night, gourmet breakfast in the morning, and wine and cheese in the afternooon. We are hoping to make this a tradition that every couple of years we return here to splurge on a wonderful romantinc getaway!
