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.

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.
