Every thing was clean, tidy and organized, there’s heat pumps in the rooms with easily accessible controls. They left a sweet note on check in and check in and check out was a breeze! We missed breakfast due to a tight schedule and the hosts offered breakfast parfait’s to go. I’m extremely happy with my stay and will stay again

Unbelievably Enchanted! I have never stayed in any inn anywhere in the world that had paid much attention to detail, not just on the surface of being beautiful (which it is), but in every little detail that felt like it was meant to be a sanctuary of inspiration (down to the poetry murals), comfort, and rejuvenation. More like a spa than a place to sleep! Also- awesome breakfast, insumptuous credible hosts. 11 out of 10 stars! Also . . .what is IN that bath gel/shampoo/conditioner?! Cannot wait to return.

This was a wonderful stay. We did find everything 5 star. The one thing was the lack of space to put your items. The king bed took up.most of our space. Once our luggage was stowed on the luggage racks, there was a single small dresser on which to put toiletries, etc. A small first wirld problem, lol.

Highly recommend August House. The rooms in this heritage home are clean and beautiful with a minimalist, pine aesthetic. The breakfast is buffet with local bread, granola, berries, scrambled eggs, etc. The staff are very helpful. There is a sauna and several shared spaces. The rooms have no TV. The bed was very comfortable and the tub was deep.

The inn was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. Having hot drinks and a refrigerator available were very nice. The breakfast was delicious, and it was nice to get to chat with other guests around the large table. Our only complaint was that we had hoped to spend time in the living room in the evening, but the record player didn’t work, the selection of games was scanty, and even if we had found a game to play, the lighting in both the living room and dining room was so dim that it would have been difficult to see to play. These slight deficiencies would be easy to correct, and overall this is a very nice place.
