Our recent stay at the Seasons at the Riter Mansion was an accident precipitated by the crowds over graduation weekend. What a pleasant surprise. The Mansion has only six rooms, and the only one available on this busy weekend was the "Guest Room", reasonably priced for a B&B at $99. The room was a decent size, just as it was pictured on the home-page, no surprises. Even though the room is over the front entry and faces the street, it was quiet and comfortable. The room was clean, bright, and furnished tastefully.

The mansion itself is definitely historical, and thus there are bare bricks in places, creaky floors (love it!), and radiator heat. The bathroom could have been arranged better, with no room for laying out toiletries, and the single bar of soap was a bit annoying, but I'm sure if we had asked, the gracious innkeepers would have provided another. (Ditto with only two bath towels, two drinking glasses, and one garbage--nothing that can't be easily dealt with, but not exactly luxurious.)

The breakfast was served between 7 and 9 at a time of our request and consisted of a small helping of fruit, a breakfast meat, and a carb. The apple pancakes (shaped like apples!) with carmel syrup were absolutely luscious. The coffee was rich and hot and the service attentive.

The mansion is only a block away from Main Street, an easy walk to all the downtown shops and within walking distance of several yummy restaurants. (The sweet potato fries at the Iron Gate Grill are delicious, but that's another story.) Also within walking distance is the LDS Tabernacle, which is surounded by a block of tree-lined grass.

When in Logan again, Seasons at the Riter Mansion will definitely be my choice.
