She arrived early with her two helpers to make sure she had time to set up before the guests arrived. She was very patient and knowledgable while trying to teach all of us how to paint our masterpieces. She and her staff were attentive to our needs and made it a fun experience for all. I found that any age from toddlers on up can participate and have fun painting. She even managed to console a 5 year old that was a little upset that her painting wasn't quite coming out like hers and gave her a clean canvas to paint a cat on which is one of her favorite animals and it was all good. We had a great day! Thanks to The Painting Cafe for making this such a fun time

Pros: Cozy rooms with an amazing air conditioner and the water pressure in the shower was great. Comfortable bed, clean and organized room. Beautiful landscaping on the property, country decor, and a delicious and fresh homemade breakfast. Our dog truly loved staying here! He was very comfortable and loved the large green space outside. *We also liked that it was adults only when we were there. Cons: Parking is a little tight. When we arrived, we had trouble getting into door #1 but we figured it out. It was stuck and you had to push it hard to get it open. We wished there was more closet space or more space to put our two suitcases. The road The Bond is located on gave me "Pet Semetary" vibes... it's a highway with many fast cars and semi trucks driving by and there's no barrier between the grass and the road. Definitely keep your pets on a leash. Also to note, my husband was under the impression The Bond was located on the lake based on the photos from the website and the room we stayed in was advertised as "Lake View King, Room 1". This b&b is actually located across highway 41 from the lake and we could barely see it. This was a disappointment.

The outside entrance and inside reception area were also very welcoming. It was a wonderful end to our festive day. We had a group of around 150. Our room was comfortable and spacious. Service was good. I, along with a few others at my table had ordered the baked haddock. It's funny, when I got my plate I thought it looked boring, no color. Lol, you do eat with your eyes first. I must say though, the haddock was cooked perfectly. The potatoes and veggies were also cooked well. Nothing was overly exciting but tasted fine. I'd say better than most banquet type meals. I was surprised that there was only 1 bartender for our large group. Though considering we were just there for dinner and not a long evening, it worked out fine. Overall, it was a nice dinner. 2023-122

While this venue if for a small to medium size wedding I think it would help to have a wedding coordinator with staff for this location as we needed help guiding people to where to go for the ceremony and assistance on where to park. I don't smoke but a lot of people at the wedding I attended did. You must be respectful of the "barn rules" and designated smoking areas or you will get a talking to. It's a very historic property and they want to maintain its charm and not worry about about a spark starting with all the flammable elements around. ** I did speak with Betty who is very sweet and she let me know the person directing traffic / helping with parking no showed!
