The Inn is now owned and operated by the 3rd & 4th generations and has been part of the family since it was built in 1933. "A legacy of hospitality", it's not just a catchy phrase around here. It is a way of life. Friendly greetings, smiling faces and a genuine feeling of being part of our family is what you can expect the moment you step foot on the property.
