Went kayaking, and the lake was peaceful. Loved the patio overlooking the lake. The heated pool was fun, and dinner at a local supper club was scrumptious. Oh yeah, and breakfast was included. Will go back!
My husband and I only spent one night but we had a really nice visit the kindness and friendliness of all staff was refreshing!! Will definitely be back!
Very pretty property nice room the shower could have been improved

Needs updating.
You can not beat the view it is beautiful. However the condition of our room was lacking. Mismatched furniture no place to put your clothes, the room really needed a complete update. Pretty much every area needed to be touched. Breakfast was delicious. Eric did a great job of making sure there was more than enough food was available. I would be interested in coming back when renovations are complete it is my understanding they are slowly updating the Inn.
The views from room's balcony to Lake Como were exceptional. Staff friendly and accommodating. The only downside was the extremely loud air conditioning unit at night. We would stay here again.

The location on the lake is beautiful, but the room was very dated and in need of renovation.
Fantastic history. Eric, the General Manager, was first rate. He was helpful, friendly and shared the rich history of the inn. He and the entire staff were like inn keepers of a well run bed and breakfast.
Wonderful! We arrived and learned we were getting a fully remodeled room #103 that it was just within minutes of being completed. We sat out front with the lovely owners until our room was ready. Stunning view, wonderful bed, and large walk-in shower with a bench in it. The restaurant on the property had incredibly good food and great waiters! We would highly recommend and would love to come back! Thank you!
Our room had a fireplace but when we turned it on it had a little smell. Not of gas. Maybe it was just not used recently so we turned it off.
Our coupon for breakfast was great. The only thing was my coffee cup was so hot it almost burnt my lips every time I took a drink. It wasn’t the coffee it was my cup.

Lovely location on Lake Como and the staff is wonderful. The room was nice but the bathroom features could use some improvement and resulted in my only giving 3 stars in my review regarding condition.
We had an amazing short stay. Eric was great and so knowledgeable about the Inn & area. Easy to tell he loves his job and loves sharing stories about The Inn.
Customer service A++++Excellent full breakfast of your choice, and full menu for dinners. Outstanding views of the lake and wonderful location. Definitely will return.❤️

Update your place
Decided to try this place out. It definitely has potential and a great location. But it’s old and dated. They definitely need to do some updates. Beds were too soft and so were the pillows. It was hard to maintain the temp in the room. It’s loud. You can hear everything and everyone one. The restaurant is amazing! Very good food and service! Lots of lake view tables!
Upon arrival we were greeted promptly and courteously. Eric informed us of the history of the building and the historic patrons of the past. It was quite special. Our room had an incredible view of the lake from the outdoor balcony. The room was quaint and comfy.
The heater/air conditioning unit was a little loud. All other amenities were superb.
We’d love to visit again during another season.
