I stayed with a couple of my friends in the 20s room and it was lovely, clean and spacious and also nicely decorated. There was a super cute reading nook in the room too. Beautiful building, absolutely loved the patio area and the murals. There were 3 meals offered at the home, only took advantage of the breakfast option. Dawn served us an eggs in purgatory on the second day we were there and it was so yummy!

Cannot recommend highly enough
This was an amazing stay, from the beautiful property conversion and excellent water pressure to the free cookies, gorgeous yard, and best breakfast in Canada. The proprietors were lovely and friendly, the parking was a breeze, and the dog was adorable. Hands down our favorite lodging of the trip — would go to Coleman again just to stay there!

A Great Adaptation of an Old Building
The rooms here are associated with a separate catering business that is run by the owners. Truly a "family place" there were relatives and other family members visiting and working on the catering side while we were there. Very friendly. The old building was modified for the combined purposes, so there are some work-arounds and old-building "features" that you won't find anywhere else. The owner offered, and we took, "bagged lunches" for the day that we left, which was very convenient for us. Parking was on the street, but the small town has limited traffic and felt quite safe. For those who enjoy staying in this kind of place, it was very nice, with even a separate "reading room" filled with a wide range of books, including some about the history of the town and area, as well as big comfortable chairs.

A little gem in the mountains
A little gem hidden in this beautiful countryside. It is perfect for a family or friend vacation, rooms are cozy and unique, breakfast served in the morning is the best breakfast ever. Ouside seating areas are filled with blossoming flowers and allow you to admire the mountains around. Hiking is close by without having to drive far.
