Three sisters and myself visited this lovely, historic mansion near the Ohio River and a great winery....for a bit of respite from families and some much needed together time! The HOME and accommodations are nothing short of amazing, as were the innkeepers. You will not be disappointed. A mini Biltmore, so near to so many! The bedding so luxurious too! And those porches, so heavenly and quiet in the morning with coffee and for conversations in the evening!!! We would love to return with our spouses in the Fall, but anytime would be wonderful. Simply magical!

We stayed here in March '09 for a weekend get a way. we stayed on a Friday night and weren't able to arrive until late, they were more than accommodating, the hospitality is second to none. The mansion itself is beautifully restored and has a lot of history. I highly recommend staying here!!
