Chuck and Susan welcome us like friends, take us to our favorite room in their antique-filled historic house, and prepare the most exquisite breakfasts in the sunny patio room where we meet other friends of theirs each morning over coffee and the daily surprise menu. There is never any rush. They are welcoming and accommodating to every need, and readily... More

We will follow the footsteps of many others and make a return visit to the Banyan House. Spacious rooms, wonderful breakfasts...walk to the downtown restaurants and shops.

Chuck and Susan have done an amazing job to restore this historic home. They are also gifted at helping people feel at home and acquainted with the area. Our room, the Palm, was a perfect fit for our anniversary ... cosy and romantic. The breakfasts are prepared and presented in fine detail. There is nothing not to like about this... More

Sue and Chuck are very good at what they do. It would be doing an injustice not to have mentioned the hosts first. They have an outstanding property. This is not your typical B&B. The breakfasts are not your standard fill up on cereals/pastry/oatmeal. Sue prepares works of art for breakfast. No kidding...guarantee you say it once...that its a shame... More
