We have been preparing the Ruben Gridley Wright farm estate house for guests for over two years and are proud and relieved to finally hang out the Vacancy sign. We are taking reservations for our 4 spacious guest bedrooms, two with ensuite bathrooms and two guest rooms sharing a common bathroom. The guest rooms, all on the second floor, open on to a common foyer with elegant finishes and a quiet reading room. A large guest parlor and dining room plus spacious outdoor porches offer guests room to spread out and enjoy the county ambiance and charms of the regal old farmhouse.
