Children: kids over 8 years old are welcome. One child can be accommodated in the Russell Suite in addition to the usual two adults or children may stay in their own room if they are old enough to do so. There is an extra charge for a child in the Russell Suite ($40-$75/day depending on age and length of stay).

Pets: one or two pets totalling no more no than 40 pounds may stay with its humans in the Noyes Room. We must restrict the size of guest pets because we have a 45 pound dog named Julie and we do not want her to experience “alpha dog” issues with large dogs. Also, a poorly behaved small dog is a nuisance; a poorly behaved large dog is a serious problem! The pet must not be left alone in the room at any time unless crated. During breakfast the pet must either be crated or put in the car. Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pet and for any damage caused. All pets must be on Advantage, Frontline or similar pest repellent.

Smoking: smoking is allowed on the covered porch and on the grounds. No smoking is allowed inside the inn and a $400 cleaning fee will be charged to any guest who violates the smoking policy. We also do not allow the use of candles or incense for the comfort and safety of all of our guests.

We offer a discount on multiple night stays; please see our rates page for details.
