Visit #2

This was our second stay at the BF Hiestand House. We came down and found the BF outfitted with the wonderful Memorial Day regalia. Not only are Dallas and Pam wonderful people, but terrific owners. Given that we so enjoy our stay there, we were given a choice of breakfast foods. Rhubarb and strawberry muffins, asparagus frittatas, this is just the start of the wonderfully prepared food. 3 helpings of the stuffed french toast provide clarity on the quality of food. Dallas and Pam are so caring toward their guests, whether they are providing directions, offering suggestions on where to go and things to do, or even taking the opportunity to book things for guests. Although this may seem standard for inns, Pam and Dallas truly go the extra mile to make you feel welcome and looked after. I went so far as to come back with a half-gallon of blackberry ice cream for them, because of how much they do for us. For sure we will be back for another visit very very soon. Thank you for everything. A

The Time of Our Life

Pam and Dallas, I don’t know how I can express how we felt about our stay at your Bed and Breakfast! From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we were in love! Our suite was absolutely beautiful. The architecture, the colors, the cute little table in the back with the Keurig coffee maker. We enjoyed playing the board game also the heated tile floors and spa shower were incredible and the Jacuzzi with all the different color lights was so neat! The breakfast was magnificent. Your service was absolutely exceptional! Hands down, best place we have stayed yet! You deserve a big pat on the back! We are definitely hoping to come back! Thank you for your wonderful service!
