Sarah was very friendly.The property manager (didn"t get his name) was wonderful. He made a delicious breakfast. The room overlooking the river was perfect. The only thing that could have been better was the dining room, very cave like. The dinner menu was limiting and not really good.

We love the Wayside Inn! We’ve been staying 2-3 times a year for 4 years. The rooms a lovely; the inn is cozy; the included breakfast is delicious, as is the restaurant for dinner. The view from the dining room is beautiful every season. Sarah, the owner, and her family are absolute delights-it’s a privilege to have gotten to know them a bit over the years-and we look forward to many more years of visits.

Our stay was fine, just not much to do around this area. Not enough places to eat or visit. This property sits next to a river which is an advantage because of the view. An old place, reminded me of grandmas place. The best part was the jacuzzi which came in handy after a long day travel.

Lovely room and location. We had a river view in the Annex which was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was good with a few choices on the menu and the option to add extras such as pancakes for a couple of dollars. Dining room has stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Would recommend to anyone.
