This is an amazingly equipped little home. It was very compgfortable...with rhe exception of the hide-a-bed which was difficult for an older person to get up from. The bed was quite compfortable and when they say all you need to bring is your food, they mean it! The area is very quiet and scenic. This isn't a place with any urban niceities it is a place to put your feet up and relax. If we lived closer we would be back for a much longer stay.

Thank you very much Ken. So glad you enjoyed your stay. I appreciate what you say about the hide-a-bed. I will do some research to see what more we can do for that. We have recently put a new bed deck and a new mattress on it, but there is perhaps something more we could do. Safe travels! Karen

Beautiful location, spotlessly clean, extremely well stocked. We arrived on a cold,rainy evening and it heated up very quickly. Bed was very comfortable but pillows could have been better. Code lock on the door made check in a breeze. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Thank you for your review! Hopefully you can stay longer next time. I will check out the pillows and replace those that have lost support. Thank you for letting me know.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write your review and your comments. So glad you enjoyed it. I don't like charging for wifi, but when we were able to offer it a couple years ago, it came with extra costs so rather than increase rates for everyone to cover the extra cost, we chose to just add it when people wanted it. Thank you again for staying with us and we hope you can stay a bit longer next time. Karen, owner

Very nice place to stay.
This place had all the amenities and a staff that was friendly and receptive. Not a single negative thing to say about the place when it came down to accommodations. Thought it was a little closer to Wolfville but Middleton was a short drive away. Very nice.

Excellent Peaceful & Quiet Get Away
We really enjoyed having such a quiet peaceful place to stay while in Middletown area for speaking engagements! It had everything we needed, small kitchen, relaxing living room and very comfy beds! My 3 year old son loved the croquet! And it was so nice to have the little fireplace to take the chill out of the air in the mornings!
