We booked the Empire suite for Labor Day weekend, for a family member's destination wedding. Because it is a popular weekend, we had reserved our stay in January, to ensure we wouldn't have any issues booking a room. Imagine our surprise when I received a voicemail a couple months before our scheduled stay stating that our reservation may not be honored. Thankfully, I keep detailed receipts/e-mails/confirmations and called the B&B, providing them with this information. The entire thing was a misunderstanding but it did make us a bit weary about our upcoming stay. Thankfully, from then on everything went smoothly. The mansion itself has been painstakingly restored. Even minor details such as doorknobs and serving-ware stay true to the mansion's ambiance. Our package came with complimentary massages, Clayton has magic hands! The B&B does offer tours for those interested in learning the history of the mansion. Our suite had a writing desk, wood shutters on the windows for privacy, two walk-in closets (one under construction/unfinished), a massive bed that I needed a running start to jump up on (if you're short like me I stacked the reading chair footrest along with the bed step stool to get up on the bed), a reading nook, a couple seating areas, and an en-suite bathroom (vent didn't work and there's a balcony we wished we could have accessed). There are quite a few common areas to explore for adults and children alike. There's a playroom on the top floor that I believe accesses the tower (wished the dining packages in the tower were available). To quench your thirst a beverage station can be found next to the massage room/gift shop. The hosts offer something different for breakfast every day. Persnickety tiny humans may not like the fare. Would like to stay here again, when/if the tower becomes available again. read more
