The owners were nice. The breakfast was good although it wasn’t traditional breakfast food. The property needs to be remodeled and cleaned up. Looked run down and not very appealing.

The owners are fantastic hosts and you get to feel like you have been transported into the past where guests have conversations with each other over breakfast in the morning or while sitting on the front porch.

The owners meet us upon arriving and was very nice. They let us know not to travel to the city going the direction google was taking us due to no streetlights and very windy roads. The owners were always available and very friendly. Loved our room even though it was a house we felt like we were the only ones there. Great get a way, very relaxing.

I had a two night reservation and paid one night upfront as required. When I contacted the Inn to let them know I was not coming because the governor had issued a state of emergency and requested folks not travel I didn't hear from them. I day later I received an email that the additional night had been charged to my card. I still have not received anything in the way of a receipt for the second nights charge. Offered me a gift certificate for return stay. Not what I was expecting. When the Governor says not to travel I would expect a refund. Don't book with these folks. Not the way to do business and I am a small business owner myself

Cozy quarters and unforgettable breakfast!
The Taylor House Inn was a perfect stage for a peaceful getaway. The setting is idyllic, and the hosts couldn't be more gracious. I stayed in the Flower Cottage, which is a quaint room behind the grand main house. The cottage was full of country charm. The bed could have been more comfortable. I loved the snacks and even complimentary little bottles of wine in the room. Breakfast was worth the trip! Served in the impressive dining room on beautiful china, the freshly prepared two-course meal definitely left an impression. I enjoyed walking around the area and spotting deer, chipmunks, and lots of birds. I hope to return for another visit here soon!
