Such a lovely step back in time (in a good way). Beautiful antiques and very comfy beds. The highlight was our delightful breakfast. The best we’ve had in a long time. The lady (sorry, can’t remember her name) that checked us in and made our breakfast was a gem!

Our host was very nice lady who greeted us. Our room was cute with a canopy bed. Bed was comfortable. Easy walkable location. Breakfast was amazing. Would definitely stay again. Don’t let outside facade of the building fool you.

This is a unique antique inn with lots of local color. The story of Evangeline is a theme that is echoed in the decor. The host was very friendly and served us a delicious blueberry pancake breakfast. Breakfast was an opportunity to converse with other travelers and feel the warmth of humanity.

After a camping trip went awry due to weather we decided to find somewhere to spend the second night of our trip with our two young children. Our kids clothes had gotten soaked in the rain and the owner was kind enough to dry them for us. He even tried to find us a crib for our youngest. He went above and beyond to try to accommodate us. Our stay also included breakfast which was amazing. Fruit bowls, egg bake and blueberry cinnamon rolls. He scrambled my daughter’s egg separately and prepared a fruit bowl (without the honey drizzle) for my son. My husband has not stopped raving about the amazing cinnamon rolls. All in all it helped turn a bad camping trip into a wonderful family vacation!

The building was beautiful in it's day I'm sure. It is in need of work, eg paint and other minor repairs. It was untidy, eg some of the curtains were falling off the rods. The tower looked dark and we could only see a single mop handle which was propped against a window.

We regret that your stay was not as expected. We continue to restore our 1890 Victorian home and realize some areas of the exterior require work but we are very proud of the guests areas and the historical essence and guest experience inside with the appointments in the bedrooms and common areas. We also go out of our way to provide a memorable breakfast experience that many have commented on that set us apart.

This old house is just beautiful and the lady running it is a wonder. (Sorry I don't remember her name) Her breakfast was to die for. Homemade cinnamon rolls and baked eggs. And a beautiful fruit parfait. All of this on the eve of a major hurricane. I can't say enough about it. Best breakfast of our trip and we have been on the road for a month.

An exceptional B&B, exactly the type one would day dream of quitting one's job and running. A Victorian mansion full of authentic historical character, antique furnishings, and modern comforts. The staff were kind, helpful, and informative. The breakfasts were varied and truly gourmet. We will definitely come back!

The provided breakfast was top notch! Bed was very comfortable. Our check-in was delayed until 5:30 which was a bit of an annoyance since we planned a test before supper and the theatre night we were attending. In the end it all worked to our satisfaction.
