Please do not bring visiting friends or relatives who are not registered guests into the Inn without the express consent of the Innkeeper.

For direct bookings and third-party bookings: 3 nights or less must be paid in full at the time of booking. For stays longer than 3 nights, 50% of the lodging total must be paid at the time of booking with the balance due being automatically charged to the credit card on file 14 days before arrival. Reservations made within 14 days of arrival must be paid in full at the time of booking. Guests booking through an on-line travel agent must pay in full at the time of booking.
Cancellations
We are a small inn; therefore, cancellations affect us greatly. Please read the information below carefully.
For reservations that are booked directly with the Inn:
If we receive your cancellation notice via phone or email at least 14 days before your arrival date you will be refunded your deposit minus a $50 processing fee. To avoid the $50 processing fee, you may move your reservation out to another date within one year of the original booking date. Please note that higher rates may be applied based on room selection and seasonal pricing.
If you need to cancel within two weeks of your arrival, your reservation will only be refunded if we are able to re-book your room for the entire stay that was booked, and a $50 cancellation processing fee will still apply.
For reservations made through travel partners and third parties:
- Reservations booked through an online travel partner may be canceled and refunded with more than 30 days’ notice prior to your arrival date. Third-party cancellations with less than 30 days’ notice are non-refundable.
Please consider purchasing travel insurance if you are concerned about protecting yourself from an occurrence that might cause you a late cancellation.
- We will not issue a gift certificate for cancellations.
- Early departures are regarded as cancellations and are non-refundable.
- “No shows” are non-refundable.
