About this property

Historic, quiet, elegant, mix of modern & original

Located in a quiet upscale historical registered neighborhood just blocks from the restored Main Street district. Close enough to walk, drive, or ride the 4th Street Elevator down the bluff. Just minutes from the casinos, golfing, museums & restaurants.

This listing is for all of the Bed and Breakfast rooms and common spaces, which includes 3 suites with a total of 4 queen beds plus a very nice Flexsteel sleeper in 5 individual bedrooms, for a total capacity of 10 adults (children are very welcome), 3 full bathrooms, and the guest kitchen that seats 9, in addition to a common area for gathering, games, just hitting the couch and watching a movie, along with a more formal dining area, plus cafe seating on the porch and outside dining under the pergola. Each bathroom includes a 2 person jacuzzi tub, a 2 person air-massage tub, or a jetted shower massage panel. The guest kitchen has recently been updated with a new stove/oven in addition to the recently new fridge & dishwasher, and is exclusively for your use during your stay. Note that while we are traditionally a "Bed & Breakfast" for individual room stays, breakfast is not prepared for VRBO rentals.

This is an ideal place for family gatherings, ladies weekend getaways, etc. however please be aware that this is not the right location for parties. The owners do reside in a separate part of the building, and we must all be respectful of our neighbors.

Fantastic location and property
We came down with 8 adults and this place was perfect for our needs. The location is great to get to the marina and casinos quickly. The place was extremely clean, comfy beds, and we loved the porches for visiting. Easy check in and out. Highly recommend staying here.
