Oh my gosh! What a wonderful experience we had staying at Elmere House. This was our first time at a Bed & Breakfast and we could not have picked a more perfect place! Michael and Bill were such gracious hosts. They offered suggestions on entertainment and restaurants in the area. The whole place is just beautifully kept and decorated...inside and out! Breakfast was phenomenal! Visiting with them both and the other guests while we ate was the best; it felt like you were with family. We will definitely be back next year. -Karen & Paul from NY

This was our second time at this B&B. This place is super clean and very peaceful. The customer service from 1-10 is 10 plus. Michael and Bill are super nice. The breakfast is to die for. Thank you Michael and Bill for allowing us to stay in the beautiful suite. Teresa and Yamir

Part of the Inn family

Everything about the Inn was excellent! So loved staying here and even commenting to each other how clean and nicely decorated it was. Our special request was respectfully acted upon and very much appreciated. We felt like part of the family here and made to feel very welcome.

As repeat visitors, we've always enjoyed the highest quality of service at Elmere House. The home is beautifully decorated and well maintained, with wonderful outside areas for lounging under massive shade trees, relaxing by the firepit, and watching all of the birds make frequent visits to the water fountain and birdseed offerings. Bill and Michael are fabulous hosts and so friendly, and Bentley (their dachshund) is so sweet and welcoming!

The Elmere House Bed and Breakfast was incredible in every way! Their daily breakfasts were so amazing—so delicious! Michael and Bill, the inn keepers, worked so hard to make our stay the best. We have stayed in B and B’s all over the world, and this one comes in #1. Our suite was large and beautiful with a fireplace, four-poster bed, and gorgeous pine floors. This place definitely earns a five-star rating!

In every way the perfect hostess. It is not easy to be a great host; the basics are covered with five stars, but there is much more that requires a delicate balance and Bill and Michael have achieved it. Enjoy your stay.

The room was small but very nicely decorated and clean. Bathtub was bit of a challenge with inner lining of the sheer curtain touching you from all sides. It’s a free standing bathtub converted into a shower. What I want to rave about is the breakfast that was served! Micheal, the host, was absolutely pleasant and made sure we were comfortable and well fed. I think I must’ve had the best blueberry pancake! Soft, pillowy, and chewy at the same time! I’m gonna remember those for awhile! Bill, the other host who’s also the cook is the best!
