Great place to stay

by misfitcooper

Willie is absolutely amazing, I can tell she loves running her B&B. She made us feel very welcome, and we enjoyed chatting with her and imagining what the backyard looks like in the summer. We elected to sleep in and skip breakfast, but when we woke up to the smell of quite a spread we regretted removing ourselves from the breakfast sign up board!

• Pros: Service

This B&B in the historic Irvington neighborhood boasts gorgeous gardens, historical charm and excellent rates.

The Scene
The heart of this 1922 Georgian Colonial mansion is the winding staircase that leads upstairs. The antiques, leaded glass windows and oak floors all lend a genteel ambiance, but even more impressive is the English-style rose and lavender garden. Guests can relax in the gazebo and sip a glass of wine.

The Details
The four bedrooms are comfortably appointed with antiques, and the largest room has a gas-powered fireplace. The common area features built-in cabinets and French windows. Guests dine on a sumptuous breakfast, which often includes fresh berries grown out back. Those seeking authentic Northwest hospitality need look no further.
