白橡旅館(The White Oak Inn)

Went to Inn for my wife's 70th birthday. Selected one of the cabins and were going to tour Amish Country however my wife fell in love with the cabin and we stayed in the cabin most of the time. Had one dinner and two breakfasts at the Inn and they were fantastic. Other dinner we had at the The Alcove in Mount Vernon and it was superb. The innkeepers Yvonne and Ian were great as the other Guests as well. Will definitely be back!!

FABULOUS place to stay! The owners are warm and inviting. The food is delicious: Yvonne prepared a beautiful fruits, chocolate and cheese board for us, breakfast included fresh out of the oven muffins and a made to order meal, and the dinner was incredible! There are special added touches everywhere. Our room was cozy and comfortable. I look forward to another visit!

We just left from our stay at The White Oak Inn. It is a very lovely bed and breakfast and we really enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was always wonderful. You have an option of 8:30 or 9:30am breakfast time (or a continental breakfast delivered to your room). There was always an abundance of coffee, and tea as your hot drink and a good selection of juices, water or milk. The breakfast has more than enough food to fuel you for the day. You start with a dish of fresh fruit, followed by muffins straight out of the oven, and the option of a sweet or savory breakfast, or a little of both. The granola raisin muffins were amazing, and Yvonne was kind enough to share the recipe with me! The a**osphere was very welcoming. We stayed in the main house on the 2nd floor. Our room was very nice. The TV was small, but I feel if it were any bigger, it would have taken away from the beautiful furniture and setting of the room. IF you have to have constant internet access, the internet is the only thing to we aware of. We had enough service with the guest wifi to check email and send text messages, but you won't have a strong enough signal to do much more than that. I am in no way complaining, and I feel it allowed me and my husband the time to truly enjoy our time together and not be so distracted with our phones. We had a wonderful experience and plan in going back.

Not at all what we expected. The rug was worn out in places, and the room felt shoddy, old linoleum on the bathroom floor, fixtures and shower were dated. There was not full wifi in the main house (none in the cottage). Couldn't make calls out. The breakfast was good. We left after one night after having reserved and paid for two, in spite of losing a lot. The room was advertised and priced as if it were a more up to date.

We had another great visit to The White Oak Inn. We are never disappointed when we get away from it all to The White Oak Inn. Always great food from their gourmet chef Yvonne. Always beautify presented. The guest house is our favorite place to stay. We even got to bring our Scotty, Cooper, with us. We enjoy checking out the wineries in the area. Never get them all in in a weekend. Everything is as always super clean and fun to get away to quiet relaxation.

My instinct told me this wasn't going well with the first phone call but sorry to say, I didn't listen. First impression is so important and for us it didn't go well. The smell was very obvious as we stepped through the door and it only got worse as we settled in our room, it was bad enough I wondered if we could endure, we say the room smelled like a dirty old cat litter box. We opened 3 windows and turned on 2 fans but that didn't remove the smell. The room was extremely small with just barely a walk around the bed, one hard chair was available, and we had to search the hall for another chair which made the room even tighter. Our impression is the host are tired and should retire, they were not welcoming or gracious and we felt like intruders and if we asked for something we felt we were being rude guest. The bedroom wasn't vacuumed well and the hallway and stairs were very dirty, plus we can only imagine the dog and cat hair as the animals wondered around the dining room and other areas. I would definitely say the food was not worth the value either! Do not expect any wifi in your rooms and very little in the main room. Leave your smart phone in the vehicles! Needless to say we were very happy to be on our way and do not plan to return, We're very experienced at B&B but no thank you on White Oak Inn.

The Inn is set on a very quiet road with pleasant views across a river and fields with hills in the distance and is several miles away from town and services. Owners Yvonne and Ian seem like nice people and answered our questions. We stayed in the main house in the Walnut room. The bedroom as well as common rooms were very clean and neat. Extra towels, sheets, blankets were available in a cupboard in the hallway outside our room. There is a very small shared frig in the hallway for use by all guests. VERY small TV screen in our room (too small to watch from the bed). Room size was adequate but seating was not comfortable. Bathroom was adequate but quite cramped. Bed was too soft for our comfort. Nice to be able to sit in the downstairs living room to read. We were able to reschedule the time for our basket dinner to 6:30 instead of 7 and we were permitted to eat our basket dinner in the dining room. Fruit and cheese plate for another evening were very convenient and ready when promised. Breakfast at 8:30 was served about 8:45 both mornings. Food was good. Sadly, coffee wasn't ready until about 8:15, and there is no other way to get/make coffee or tea (unless we drove somewhere to get it). Suggest adding a coffee machine so guests can make their own when they want it. Overall I would classify the White Oak Inn as a clean, quiet, no-frills B&B.
