The Waterfront House was an absolutely gorgeous property with a lake view and magnificent gardens. Our room was nicely furnished and very clean. Our host was welcoming and very gracious. The continental breakfast was average with croissants, toast and brown bread, butter and jam. The boats pictured on the website are not available for guests to use. That was a bit of a disappointment. I would stay here again.

Mary made sure we were comfortable at her charming bnb. The view was beautiful and the room we had was just the right size for our family of 4. Breakfast was delicious. Mary also went the extra mile to share suggestions about the area and how to make the most of our visit. We loved the unique flare and style of the bnb and would recommend for others to stay here, especially if you want something quiet and private.

The room has very thin walls where we could hear someone snoring all evening from another room also walking on the top floor. Upon arrival I had to ask for new towels as they smelled moldy/dirty. To add to it the shower had black mold on the top portion.
During breakfast, my husband and I wanted to sit side by side to look out the window and we were told we could not even tho the dining area had only one other couple.

Mary was a kind and gracious host. The view is astounding. Lovely garden with many beautiful flowers. Not as glitzy as other B&Bs which was just fine with me.

Loved our stay in The Waterfront b&b. It was so quiet and peaceful. Our host left us to it but if we needed anything at all she was on hand to help.
