Our room was just what we needed and the best part was the private porch with lake view. I’ll definitely be back soon!

Great place. Clean room and super quaint, albeit little scary being in almost 200 year old mansion;) Morning breakfast was great too.

Absolutely loved our stay! Very quaint inn with a lot of history. We will definitely be returning. Only downside I’ll mention is we would’ve loved to have the option to open the windows overnight, as it was a bit warm when we returned. We ended up powering on the AC which worked well, but would’ve been great to feel that fresh air off the lake.

Tastefully done!

We were a bit hesitant that the renovation was not great, but it was beautiful! Clean, nice, tasteful with a nod to the era of the historic hotel and area. Met the owner who was very nice, had a peaceful walk in historic Mansion Hills are, and a very quiet restful night.

Perfect for our one night stay. We walked to dinner and the the Overture Center. The mansion has so much character. My husbad did feel the bed was lobsided. My side was fine. Scones and coffee were great!

This was one of my favorite stays ever! We had a private entrance and the whole place to ourselves, and it was a very good bargain for this time of year… walking distance from the capital and the farmers market. The details were immaculate, and it was like having my own apartment away from home. I will definitely stay here again!
