Total Eclipse of the Sun
We traveled here from Wisconsin to see the total eclipse. It was great. The house was nice and comfortably slept all ten of us. The breakfast snacks and apples provided was a nice surprise. I would stay here again if I was in the area.

Family event
We had another place rented and it was canceled 24 hours before our arrival. I spoke to the owner of the bed and breakfast and she was more than happy to help us. Communication was great, house was clean, and plenty of beds. Thank you so much.
