The room we stayed in for the night served our needs for a nights stay. It was clean and comfortable.The property otherwise, and the exterior is a bit rundown and shabby. The curtains don't cover the entire sliding door to the porch. The screen door has holes. Way too much exterior lighting. The breakfast served was delicious and ample.

This is an older hotel that has a lot of potential. The room was large, bed comfortable, clean, and has a great balcony that overlooked a river. Dinner is offered on sight and was tasty. The hotel staff are friendly and very accommodating. The hotel needs updating and could become a five star. Our room curtains did not fit the window so we could not block out the porch light. The sliding door screen had holes and the shower curtain was not secure. The place needs to be painted. Overall it is comfortable. Just needs a little TLC.

The most special part of Wayside Inn was the babbling river flowing very close to the back of the Inn. We loved rocking on our private deck while enjoying the beautiful scenery and the delightful sound of the water rushing over the rocks! We enjoyed listening to it as we went to sleep also! We also enjoyed eating breakfast in the dining room overlooking the gardens and river.

Great old house with very friendly staff. A yummy cooked to order breakfast was included. Our large room overlooked the river. My only complaint is the weak wifi. We had to go downstairs to the common area to get any signal.

The property was not as advertised. The property was very dated. There were strong fumes in our room, the air conditioner was a window unit which was very noise and not effective. Not as advertised. The breakfast was nice. The staff was pleasant. The bedding seemed clean.

Lovely place to stay. Takes you back in time a little as well. staff really friendly and helpful. Beautiful view of the river out the back from the restaurant area and we were lucky enough to have a room overlooking it as well. There is a hummingbird feeding station and we saw one feeding early in the morning. Restaurant food really good quality. Recommended.

You could tell it was once nice but it was very tired. Bed was hard. Shower and bathroom needed patching and repair. (grout around bathtub was split and damaged). Breakfast was just ok. Staff were very nice, location by the river was lovely. We were in the annex... Maybe the main Inn was better.

We loved this place. It was incredibly charming. We loved the little creek running behind the place. It was quaint and charming! However…. The whole place does need some love. The place needs a paint job badly. There’s “storage” in every corner of the restaurant and lot. I know the owner loves this place and is doing her best. It just needs a bit more time and energy.

Enjoyed our stay! Sarah the owner was so helpful and super nice, and not to mention a great cook! So hearty and delicious, after tasting breakfast we decided to stay for Dinner and it was just as good. We stayed in the summer but after talking to the owner we can’t wait to head back in the winter hearing that we can get right on a snowmobile trail right from the Inn! Would definitely stay again!
