    We loved the whole cozy aspect of Chez Sam, chock full of mementos and antiques, a very nice piano and even a pool table. The whole atmosphere was warm, inviting and laid back.

    So homely & friendly. The kitchen was closed when we stayed for meals, but we were given free reign to the kitchen to use for our own cooking. I wish that we had longer to stay. Very comfortable.

    Very nice people, a great history and an amazing location. We spent part of the night and morning talking with the owners and we came back home making plans to another visit during summer.

    Old, very charming house with really kind hosts. More B&B than hotel-feeling. Restaurant in the hotel, good food and good breakfast with first real hot chocolate (and no sugarwater with chocolate flavor) during entire stay so far in Canada.
