We so looked forward to a one night stay in this beautiful in the pictures inn. Wow, reality was so different. This property is so sad and in serious need of maintenance. Peeling paint, untended gardens on the outside reflected a lack of caring by the owner. We were shocked to see that some people used this as a wedding venue. The inside of out expensive suite was dirty, the a/c didn't work, paint touch ups everywhere, dirty and frayed furnishings completed out room and the rest of the building as well. We were glad to leave.

We recently filmed a wedding at the Lilac Inn. It's a beautiful location. Their gardens make for a wonderful backdrop. Everything is on location so guests can go from Ceremony, to cocktail to reception easily. The town of Brandon is a gem. I recommend for small to mid sized weddings.

The Lilac Inn is centrally located in Brandon and a walkable distance from local restaurants & shops. Our check-in was pretty much autonomous & simple. All rooms are on the second floor. We selected the corner room #5 (aka The “Lilac Room” I believe?). The room offered a large Roku tv, fireplace, queen four post bed & ball and claw tub. The decor is comfortable and the room clean. We were the ONLY guests at the Inn this evening. Pretty cool. We started a fire (everything supplied), watched a bit of tv, found the bed quite comfortable and slept well. There is a Keurig coffee station on the floor supplied with coffee, cocoa and packaged biscotti for guests to enjoy anytime.
We woke to enjoy our made to order breakfast (included) of blueberry pancakes, bacon, sausage patties, eggs (any style), home fries and fruit along with coffee, oj, cranberry juice and water. Sunny beautiful room.
I highly recommend a visit. Very enjoyable stay!

We had our wedding here this week and it was absolutely perfect. Our guests loved the venue and oh my god the FOOD! We requested a completely vegan meal with a southern comfort food vibe and every dish was incredible. Everyone who works here is kind and professional and they all worked so hard to make sure our few days there went smoothly and beautifully. Thank you!!

This was the most perfect place for the most perfect day; our wedding! Everything about the Lilac Inn is warm and welcoming. Shelly, the owner, was wonderful to work with and the rest of her staff, especially Betsy, were excellent! They’re accommodating and the food was amazing. We had everything from the rehearsal Friday, to breakfast Sunday with them. This was truly the most beautiful place to have a wedding.
