I loved hearing the history of this beautiful mansion. The owners were very knowledgeable on the history. I would highly recommend to someone who is interested in staying in a very clean and beautiful mansion. I would definitely consider staying here if I am back in the area. Very cute bed and breakfast.

July 2023 homecoming visit
We appreciated Kelly’s tour of the mansion at check in. His passion for the property, history and what it still offers to the community is contagious. We had a fabulous 2 nights and felt very comfortable sharing this home. My mom, sister and I stayed here on a journey back in time to visit the town we were born and where our mom lived for 8 years. She was a single mom of 6 who had to move out of Michigan after our duplex burned to the ground. I had not been back since I was 4 years old (turned 50 in June). I couldn’t imagine a better homecoming, using Saravilla as our home base to explore the area. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

We stayed there to celebrate our Anniversary, and we were not disappointed. We were met by owner Kelly who gave us a history and tour of the property. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and would not hesitate to recommend or rebook a stay. We hope to go back!

Our First B&B Stay Ever and Awesome!!!
This was our first ever stay at a Bed & Breakfast. The house is huge and beautiful. The host is very kind and willing to answer question. Even gave us a tour and history of the place. He was very easy just to chat with us. The room was big and comfortable. If you want quiet then thus is the place. Was great meeting other guest and having breakfast with them in the morning. The breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend and has changed our minds about staying at standard hotel. Want to stay at more B&B's!!!

The history was quite unique and attempt to keep original decor, furniture, rooms, etc. The innkeeper was so friendly, knowledgable, and kind enough to let my friend join for breakfast, which was fabulous. Did not care for method of reserving room and eventually getting it nearly $50. cheaper thru Expedia.
