This was our first stay at Sideways Inn, but definitely not our last! We have family in the area, and it was a wonderful, pet-friendly place to stay and get to bring our dog along! The office staff and housekeepers were friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the local blend coffee and fresh gourmet donuts were such a welcoming touch! We didn't have time to try the restaurant, but plan to do so on our next visit!
