Whistler's Inn

We had a wonderful time at the Whistler Inn! Anyone who loves history will enjoy this B&B, a mid-19th C estate with a remarkable collection of art, decor, and furnishings — it’s like staying in a museum! Fascinating to wander through the inn. Our room was clean and comfortable. Gardens were beautiful. The host, Lisa, was so kind and friendly and upgraded us to a more spacious room on her own, just because it happened to be open that night. The blueberry pancakes for breakfast were outstanding , too!

I liked that it is an older style bed and breakfast place. You could say "classy" or "vintage". It reminded me of places where I would visit with family when I was a child. I received a personal welcome and orientation to the property. Breakfast was nice and cooked options were available for me to choose. Another guest in the dining room at breakfast was also enjoying the visit and it was natural to strike up a conversation and get to know each other. It was a more personal kind of stay than my typical hotel experience.

We really did love our stay here. The inn is very old and definitely in need of some maintenance and repairs, if you are looking for something modern and updated, this is not the place. If you are looking for old fashioned charm and hospitality, that is what you will find. The room we originally booked in the separate carriage house (Santa Fe) had no cell service/WiFi or heat the first night and the bed was creaky and uncomfortable, but we were moved to a different room in the main house for the rest of our stay which was very cozy. Breakfast was amazing, homemade with wonderful company around the dining room table. We spent a rainy day in the library with other guests sharing stories of life and travels. The owners were wonderful, Lisa even made us some fresh chocolate chip cookies for a late night snack. There is a beautiful walking trail in the old cemetery across the road, walking distance to shops and restaurants on Main Street. I would definitely stay in the main house again if I am ever back in the area.
