The workers were so kind and helpful! We were there for a music festival so they were booked up, but when we called and requested an earlier checkin time they were flexible and made it happen for us! The staff are very accommodating and you can tell that they want their guests to be comfortable and enjoy their stay.

The staff was very welcoming. The room, including the bathroom, was clean and well appointed. The bed/pillows were comfortable. Off the main road so it was quiet. We didn't eat the continental breakfast so can't review that. Close to restaurants and park.

Room was very clean and just fine, however breakfast had only one sausage link left, no potatoes or eggs, just waffles and pastries. They seem to be in the process of updating the property!

Breakfast was good. Not a fan of the condiments like the butter being a shared tub that everyone stuck the knife into. If you don't know how the Waffle maker works and how much batter to put in. You will struggle with this. But overall a very nice place to stay.

Friendly, Convenient and Priced Right
I was in town for the week and chose to stay at the Covered Bridge Inn. The location was convenient since I would also be traveling east a few times throughout the week. The staff were friendly and caring, and the room was terrific. Other options in town just didn't compare.
