My husband and I just recently stayed there. We arrived at like 4pm and when we entered it was very welcoming! We stayed in the Green which has so much charm to it. The size of the room was very nice. We were able to look at all the other rooms within the mansion. I must say they all beautiful... More

Thank you taking time to post your review of the inn we appreciate you comments. Positive reviews are most welcome and let us know we are doing things right. At times the Mansion does show its age of 207 years and it is a constant labor of love to keep her looking her best. We agree with you that some... More

My wife and I stayed at the Cameron Estate Inn as part of a wedding anniversary getaway. This is a pretty long review, so grab a drink. Hahaha... I will start out with a quick shout out to the folks who mentioned the place having a different (perhaps unwelcoming, for lack of a better expression) vibe about the place. That... More

Our trip to the Cameron Estate was a suprise 50th Birthday gift from my wife to me. We stayed on 12/4/11 in the Green Room. The room was very nice, with a very comfortable King size bed, pillows and linens. The lady at the desk was very nice and showed us how the fireplace, Jacuzzi tub and shutters worked in... More

While the Inn appears very stately from the exterior the feeling when you enter is not very welcoming. We were immediately asked for a credit card for incidentals. We were offered no complimentary refreshments and were made to feel that we may be intruding. The room was comfortable enough and the antiques were lovely but we did not come away... More

Jenny, Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay, we find it helpful in making changes to improve your service. We are not sure why you did not feel welcomed as you offer few if no details and our check in procedure is no different than any other lodging facilities. Our procedures are more upfront and honest... More

I really enjoyed the "feel" of the Inn. It is superbly decorated. Being able to look into the rooms that weren't reserved was a cool bonus. Staff was friendly and gave us ideas of things to do and local restaurants. My room had a tv, however the channel selection was limited...since my intention wasn't to sit and watch tv...I was...

My husband and I stayed here and enjoyed the inn very much. The bed was comfortable and the inn is set on 15 acres and it's quiet and peaceful. Mt. Joy (small town) is just 5-10 minutes away. The inn is very historic and you feel at home in it. We had dinner with them one evening and the meal... More

Let me just start by saying that "Mary" did great job - if it wasn't for her, just about nothing about the stay would have been good. My sister booked this B&B on-line - when she called, they told her only one of their rooms was for 3 people (me and my 2 sisters) - the Garden Room. So we... More

Really!?!? Sometimes there are reviews that just make you go Hmmmmm. After 30 years as an Inn we have discovered that for most people if you are looking for a good time or you are looking for something to complain about, you will find it. We believe this is just one of those cases. When selecting an Inn or Bed... More

We went to the Cameron Estate Inn for dinner and only enjoyed one out of 6 courses and we aren't really that picky. The waitress pressured us into trying the "Fantastic" asparagus and brie soup and it really wasnt that exciting. Their "amazing" caesar salad which was a $2.50 upcharge had dressing that tasted like mayonnaise which was just odd.... More
