I escaped from the hustle and bustle life in Madison to Amherst for 2 days and what a lovely stay I had. The host was so gracious, continuously supplying the stove with logs to burn to keep the environment warm. I stayed in the Garden room, which was extremely cozy. The natural light coming in through the windows was marvelous! The owner refilled the bird feeders, which attracted so many birds! It was incredible to be able to bird watch, directly from the room I stayed in. The color scheme of white and green in the garden room was breathtaking! I adored all of the paintings in the house as well as all of the happy houseplants! I felt extremely welcome there. The owners were so kind, wore their masks, and communicated with me very well. There was access to WiFi and a tv with satellite service. I had the first floor all to myself, which was nice. The kitchen was spacious and stocked with everything one needs. The shared bathroom was located next to the kitchen. Everything was so self explanatory and simple - just the way it ought to be. I received 2 delicious donuts during my stay, which were scrumptious. Their library was wonderful, filled with interesting books and magazines. They had so many games to play! It was fantastic. The only three things I can say that would've enhanced my experience there were if there had been a few rugs on the cold tile floor in the bedroom (to keep my feet warmer), if the headboard hadn't hit the wall when I adjusted in the bed, and that the shower faucet needs some work so that it's not poking out so much because that was awkward. Otherwise, I loved my stay so much that those few little things really didn't take away from the overall positive experience I had. The house seemed very happy and that made me feel very happy and welcome. Also, there was a beautiful trail I walked, halfway, that was lovely. I suggest going during the day time. The indoor heating systems at this B&B are operated by solar panels. Talk about sustainable. Well done. 👍

Clean Living Space, and Fun Activities in Surrounding Area. Some of the food left for breakfast was old and dry. Other Than that it was Great!

We arrived about 6 PM and it was very cold and icy. They had a fire burning in the woodstove and the house was super cozy. Our bedroom was comfortable. Everything was professional and private. The breakfast was delicious and hearty with items from their gardens. The hostess was charming and interesting. It was a great adventure staying there And changed my perspective about sustainable living. I am very thankful.

I absolutely love it here! I went to my second yoga retreat and stayed in the bed and breakfast and it was wonderful. Marguerite and Bob are wonderful hosts, making every moment comfortable and authentic. I feel so grateful that I found this treasure. We will make this an annual retreat.
