My boyfriend and I wanted to have a nice, romantic weekend getaway and after doing hours of research we finally decided on the Wander Inn. Karen, the owner, was a complete doll!

Great location, wonderful breakfasts. The innkeeper Karen made the stay memorable. She gave us excellent restaurant suggestions and made the visit comfortable and relaxing. Rooms are on the small side, but perfectly adequate, and the communal areas are nice to hang out in. more

This had to be my best experience with a Bed and Breakfast! Karen was so accommodating with special dietary request. She was right on top of suggestions of what to see, where to go and restaurants to try.
