This was a stay "back in time". Most importantly, it was clean and quiet. Our grandparents had homes like our room and we are now grandparents, so it was awhile ago. So, it was very nostalgic for us, but we felt unsafe in the bathroom. The shower curtains were in the bottom of the tub and would have been easy to trip up on. There was only one outlet for us to re-charge our electronics on. The lighting was very poor. We somewhat enjoyed our stay because of the nostalgic factor, but really missed the conveniences of today.

Loved the location and area. Disappointed in responsiveness of staff, very disappointed in the bed/ horrible mattress (did not rest well) and limited ceiling height in the 3rd floor converted artic—in the Cherry room. Surprised by squeaky floors, road noise and surprised by noise level from nearby rooms. Our first stay there and we aren’t inclined to go back again.

The Mast Farm Inn makes you fell like you’re home from the moment you arrive. We arrived at night and the house was adorned with beautiful lights and out late check-in was made simple with Help from Jessie. Our room, The Elizabeth Gray Vining room was perfect. The complimentary two course breakfast was delicious. Exploring the farm was also great. There is so much history in the home and on the property. The attention to detail and the friendliness of the staff made it hard to leave. I will definitely be returning. Definitely would recommend if you want a relaxing weekend getaway or a romantic weekend with that special person.

Luxury, History, and value!
This was one of the most INCREDIBLE places I have ever stayed!!! I love history so that is its first plus, just the amazing old building that it is, with creaking floors and slanting ceilings on top floor, but then it was one of the most luxurious places I have stayed as well!! So warm (it snowed some that night), comfy bed, pillows and comforter, towels and robes, their own scents for the bath salts and toiletries, even claw footed tub!! Spotlessly clean (a big concern for me) and a lovely bouquet of flowers and a small pastry treat greeted me as I entered the room.. And the food - snacks in the evening, hot drinks and pastries (homemade) anytime of day, 2 course breakfast - gourmet!! I felt so spoiled, just like a queen!!

Rewind Time a Hundred Years
This paradise was just what we needed. Jessie was nothing less than outstanding and the chefs prepared our breakfast (included in the cost of the room) and it was like going to a 5 star restaurant. The meet and greet in the lounge between 4:30-5:30 offered hors d'oeuvres and a selection of specialty drinks, all which were delicious. The best part was the photo op. It is an Historic Hotel and the grounds are utterly beautiful. It has been restored to keep its near original condition. This valley is a breath of fresh air.
