Great in Eight!

The Inn turned fourteen in December and 2008 was our most successful year ever. We’re thankful for all our wonderful guests for helping us achieve a great 08. We’re constantly trying to enhance our guest experience and we’ve made some improvements here at the Inn to make your stay more enjoyable. No more searching for an open power outlet, all rooms now have charging stations for your personal electronics. New Sony alarm clocks have a battery backup so no worries about missing our hot breakfast in the morning. Crystal clear Samsung LCD’s televisions have been added to all the rooms and our wireless internet speed has been upgraded to keep you connected to the outside world… although hopefully not too connected. Come see all of the new improvements!

Spring Green!

In our ambition to lower our impact on the environment, we now offer our body lotion and bath gels in bio-degradable packaging. Looking at the packaging you would think its normal plastic but it is in fact Bagasse, a by-product of sugar cane. It’s completely compostable and uses no petroleum in its production. We hope you look for ways in your daily life to make life “a little greener”.
