Gaslight Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"If you don't like stairs, this is not the place for you, but if you love excellent cooking, a cozy environment, older homes, beautiful antique furniture, ecclectic charm, and a host that makes sure you are comfortable, this IS the place for you. The outside does not do justice to the warmth and charm found inside, a lovely old home with nooks and crannies holding antique treasures and marvelous little, and big, chotskies throughout. The food, excellent, with home made goodness each morning, and an array of snacks and drinks available throughout the day, Maria, the host, does an outstanding job of making sure her guests are cared for. A lovely getaway for an anniversary weekend like we just had, a business trip, or just to get away."
