Very nice old house and very friendly inn keeper. Good location; a short walk, maybe a 2 city block distance or 8-10 minutes, to the riverfront and town.

We LOVED our stay over the 4th of July week! Excellent location, extremely walkable. Shelly is an incredible hostess- she’s fun and easygoing, honestly the perfect balance of helpful/available, but not too in your business. Great breakfasts too!
