Kind Words From Our Guests

    Our stay at the August House was one of our best get-a-way weekend experiences. This gem of a cottage was so well appointed and allowed us a relaxing/rejuvenating time together. Jan & Mark Smith are wonderful hosts who ensured the stay here is memorable and stress free. The full breakfasts are wonderful in presentation, taste and portions. This is a place we highly recommend and will ourselves return to. Can't wait to visit in the summer time!! Rooms 5.0 - Service 5.0 - Location 5.0

    Maple Cove exceeded all of our expectations! Jan was so warm and welcoming, making our stay so special. My boyfriend and I stayed here for a little weekend getaway on our anniversary and we will for sure be coming back. The breakfast was to die for and the house was stunning. Sitting out on the on porch during the sunset and taking in the peace and quiet was everything. 10/10 recommend this bed & breakfast!

    We so much enjoyed our time here! We came to get away from the busy life of raising kids and reconnect in our marriage. It was peaceful quiet and welcoming! Super clean and the food was amazing! If we needed anything at all it was just a call or text away even if it was a wine opener or a question about meal times. Everything was great! We will definitely be back!
