Sample Guests' Comments:

  • This is the bed and breakfast against which all others will be compared...The perfect retreat.

  • The home is immaculate.  It's a comfortable and beautiful place with something to do for everyone, young and old.  I've traveled in many states and this has been one of the most delightful places I've ever stayed.

  • Thanks for being so nice and accommodating.  You take "Southern hospitality" to a new level.  We'll be seeing you often for the next 3 years while our son is attending Baylor!
