Great Stay – Wow! My wife and I really had a great time at this place. Their breakfast was amazing, the wine and cheese in the afternoon was superb (good company from the staff too), and our room was clean, quiet, and exactly what we were looking for. We felt like the furnishings were appropriate for the room, as it wasn't overdecorated. I hope to stay here next time I'm in town.

A fantastic place to relax and enjoy!!! – We spent a couple of nights in this great place last week after friends of ours had recommended this lovely B&B to us. We stayed in Room 3 in the main house and absolutely loved it. The room is beautiful, very clean and spacious. The sheets were incredibly soft and the bed was very comfortable. The staff is wonderful and breakfast was delicious and healthy. We also had a couple of in-room massages and loved every minute of it. The location is also very convenient because everything i... read more

No privacy, terrible food, rude manager – This hotel was a disaster. The worst feature for me was the large window in the front door to each room.

I complained to the manager who was very rude about it. He said "It's an old hotel, what do you expect?" Well, I expect not to have people look into my bedroom. He wouldn't do anything about the... read more

A place like home – This B&B feels just like home. After years of staying at large, chain-style hotels, I was impressed by the atmosphere the Orchid Inn has to offer. They don’t have a huge selection of food compared to some larger hotels, but they do have enough, and the food is home made, Delicious!!!!! My boyfriend and I stayed there during the week and later went for a wine tasting trip up north. The Orchid Inn was the best part of the trip.

Do Yourself a Favor - Book A Hotel – The Orchid Inn refunded us with no hassle at my request, which I appreciate. However, it was such a nightmare I feel I must warn others like myself with fairytale desires of romance and relaxation. We booked Room 4 ($150 per night w/ tax). Their website says "private bath and private entry." The entry is not private and there is no bath - just a dingy looking shower. The room was the size of a jail cell. The inn employee said we could have Room 6 for $25 more a night and it had a spa tub.... read more
