Phone & Text
For quick questions, last-minute arrivals, or just to hear a friendly voice.
Booking inquiries, group reservations, special requests, and good old-fashioned questions — we read every message ourselves and reply within a single sunny afternoon.
Share a few details and we'll confirm availability, suggest the coziest room for your party, and send a warm welcome packet before you arrive.
Your inquiry lands directly in the inbox of innkeepers Wayne & Eleanor. Expect a personal reply — never an auto-responder — usually within four hours during hospitality hours.
When you'd rather talk to a human right away, here's exactly how to find us — and when we'll pick up the phone or pour the coffee.

Children over 8 are warmly welcome in the Orchard Suite and Hearthside Room. We are a pet-free property so guests with allergies can rest easy, but we're happy to recommend a wonderful local kennel five minutes away.
Cancellations more than 14 days before arrival are fully refundable. Inside that window, we refund everything we can rebook and hold a small housekeeping fee. We treat each situation with the same kindness we'd want ourselves.
Yes — the entire inn sleeps up to 12 and is available for buyouts. We've hosted writers' retreats, anniversary weekends, and multigenerational family gatherings. Write to [email protected] and we'll send our gatherings guide.
