What our guests have to say…

u0022u003cemu003eMy wife and I went there for a weekend getaway and it was very peaceful and serene. A nice quiet town, away from the hustle and bustle of our everyday routine. The inn was very lovely and the food each morning was delicious. We will definitely be coming back in the future.u003c/emu003eu0022

u0022The owner and innkeeper are the best!! They went way out of their way to make us have a great experience!! We went for our 51st wedding anniversary weekend and we were surprised with a bouquet of roses. And for me my favorite biscuits and gravy which were made with incredible taste. This place is great!!! The red room has a jacuzzi tub, fireplace, roll in shower and entrance right off the parking lot. Bed was very comfortable and fit our needs exceptionally. The location is only a short drive to the sites in Lancaster county and close to Reading as well. Out of hustle and great location for relaxing time. Where do you find the owners sitting with you like family at breakfast. What a pleasant surprise to have our hosts sitting and conversing with us. We really enjoyed the homey feeling. Not to mention breakfast was great!! And further cheesecake and chocolate cake in refrig with coffee and tea available to us 24 hours a day. There are many Bu0026amp;B places to stay in the area. Put this one high on your list!! You will sure to be a repeat customer: I know we will! See you there:)u0022

u0022We stayed in the garnet room and absolutely loved it. Location was quiet and we just loved that the room had a jacuzzi, steam shower, fireplace, and private balcony with a swing. Hosts were great and personable. We would highly recommend this inn to anyone. We plan on putting up my mother in law in the ruby room in the future.u0022

u0022My husband and I spent the weekend of Oct 15th at this amazing little Bu0026amp;B. Upon arrival we were delighted with the beautiful architecture of the house. And the mix of modern with vintage made it perfect for us. We were greeted by Allie, who ALWAYS has a smile on her face. She is warm, inviting, knowledgeable and pays great attention to her guests AND the inn. We were shown to our room (The Ruby Suite), and shown the dining room and the coffee alcove (complete with slices of chocolate cake for guests in the fridge). She answered all our questions and we settled in. The suite was amazing. Big, fluffy towels and warm, comfy robes. The next morning we had the first of our 2 DELICIOUS breakfasts that weekend. Do yourself a favor. Book a room at this darling little Bu0026amp;B. The furnishings, the beautiful glassware, the peace and quiet are worth it. They set the bar HIGH for all our future stays anywhere! Thank you both for sharing your little gem with us. For hooking us on hami melon and for just giving us one of the coolest weekends ever! You guys are rock stars!!u0022

u0022We had an amazing stay here. The room was nice and cozy complete with a jacuzzi tub. The location is quiet, but close enough to all the bigger cities. The hosts were very warm and it felt like home. I highly recommend this Bu0026amp;B to anyone passing through!u0022

u0022My husband and I were celebrating our 1 year anniversary. I called a day ahead to see if we could check in a couple hours early, Allie answered the phone and was so sweet. She even wished us a happy anniversary before we got there. From the moment we arrived until we checked out everyone was so welcoming and friendly, including the other guests in the main house. Andrew’s breakfast was amazing ??! I’m not a French toast fan but I thoroughly enjoyed his ?. We stayed in the Cobalt suite…super cute room and I love the swing on the balcony. The whole atmosphere was quaint u0026amp; peaceful. This was our first time staying at a Bed u0026amp; Breakfast and we will definitely be back. Thank you so much Allie u0026amp; Andrew for your hospitality and for making our anniversary getaway so memorable ?u0022
Shanita Swiggett
u0022This place is wonderful!! My husband and I went to the Amethyst Inn to celebrate our anniversary! We should have not chosen a better place! As soon as we got there, Allie gave us some cookies. And there are chocolates at the entrance 🙂 She is really welcoming to everybody 🙂 The breakfast is amazing! Fresh fruits every morning!! The landscape in front of the property is so gorgeous! The fireplace oh the fireplace I loved!! I hope my husband and I will be able to go back and spend another weekend at this amazing place!!!u0022

u0022A beautiful and unique historic home with wonderful and welcoming innkeepers! The Jade room was a perfect stay for our weekend getaway and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend a beautiful stay in a Victorian home.u0022
