Loved the Inn and especially the delivered breakfast baskets. Big room with seating options. Our only issue was lack of dining options in the area. The only 2 full service restaurants were both closed on Monday AND Tuesday, the 2 nights we were there. Went to a very busy overcrowded restaurant in Hot Springs one night. Thank goodness for the Milk House Market for sandwiches and pizza!

Very quaint, charming. Felt a little like a step back to a simpler time. Just the ticket for a getaway to clear the mind and relax the body. Thanks! Two minor tips: please upgrade the in-room coffee cups - their handles are too small and your hands get burned holding them. Also, Barley Room bed and pillows are VERY soft - not healthy for older backs and hips.

My husband and myself stayed in the Rye room located in the Miller house. Everything was perfect. So much space. Really enjoyed ourselves hanging out at the pool, walking around the property and shopping at the gift shop. My favorite part was having breakfast delivered to our room. We will definitely be back.

The pictures show it as a flowery place to stay, lots of blooming plants. Going in early spring those flowers haven't bloomed yet so I was a little disappointed but understood. The closeness of all the houses was neat however you have to drive a bit to find gas and food if you don't make a reservation at the Water Wheel. Living in a city this was a big change for me. I would have like to have more insight on what other locations were good for visiting for lunch or dinner.

Beautiful inn but beware certain rooms

Overall the inn is lovely, but I would not stay in the Croft room again and would mostly write off the free breakfast. The Croft room said "mountain view" on hotels.com but it just looked out onto the post office and the main house. On the inn's website it advertised a wood fireplace (which was a selling point for us) but it was actually gas. The heat in the house that Croft and other rooms are in is central, so you can't control the heat from your room. You're supposed to text a number to have them change it but I didn't want to get in a thermometer war with the other guests... One of the biggest turnoffs was the toilet - it is situated so you can't sit straight on it without your knees hitting a radiator box. They should consider renovating this. The shower could also use an update - it was pretty grody. Also not outlets available by the bedside on either side - pretty annoying. Breakfast was brought to the room, which was nice, but it was very basic and didn't seem homemade for the most part - mini breakfast burrito (seemed similar to the frozen ones you can buy in bulk), bulk muffins, vanilla sweetened yogurt with granola, OJ, coffee. Again the overall setting is beautiful, I just wouldn't stay in this particular room and would be careful to study the pictures of the other rooms, especially the bathroom. I also would try to book 24 hours in advance to get the chance to order a nicer version of breakfast (but not sure that would be possible).
