This was a great find for our honeymoon! It was nice to have a mini house, of sorts, as compared to a hotel room. The furnishings and upkeep are beautiful. We also enjoyed the location — being out of the downtown, but still close enough to walk to the lake and Church Street.

— J. and M., Lancaster, PA

 

Andrea’s place is wonderful and was beyond our expectations. The very spacious open room is NICELY decorated and very cozy. I half expected the room to be cold because we had single digit weather but it was comfortably warm. All furniture was comfortable, including the bed, sofa and chair, and small table and chairs. Andrea included some nice extra touches such as shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer, and some food items . . . milk, orange juice, etc. Location was great. Close to downtown, the lakefront, etc.

Very few places we’ve stayed have felt as much like home as your guest house. It was the perfect location for departures to the many areas we visited during our stay.

Both inside and outside have imprinted a beautiful image that will not be forgotten.

— G. and G. C.

 

Perfect simplicity, perfect style. Such a wonderful little spot. We came for a festival of cheese but may return just for fun.

What a find! A perfect place where we could disappear! Siting on the deck gazing at the lovely garden took off five years of stress.

— S. and M., Raleigh, NC

 

We had an amazing weekend sight-seeing through Burlington and happy to come home to such a relaxing and cozy place. We spent hours on the deck talking and laughing and it ended with a marriage proposal! It was absolutely perfect and I will remember it forever!

— S. and M., Newton, MA

 

We have spent a most relaxing and comfortable three nights here. The room is very tasteful — by far the best of the seven New England accommodations we have stayed in over the last two weeks. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the deck after a day of sight-seeing.

— J. and J. G., Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England

 

This place is a living three-dimensional artform! The dynamic interplay of color, light, beautiful furnishings are a great boost to the soul. We love it and can’t wait to come return. Also, thank you for the fresh flowers!

Thank you, this was just our speed! Very comfortable, very private, very nicely decorated with just what you need for a short stay. Also nice not to have to deal with Burlington’s parking challenges — a good distance for a decent stroll back after dinner! And the coffee, milk, etc., was a lovely welcoming touch.

— H. and P., Santa Fe, NM
