The Spurs n Lace Experience
After the luggage has been packed away and the treasures of your room have been discovered, it is time to explore the rest of the Inn. Ambling down the staircase and through the marble floored foyer, you enter the formal breakfast room where delicious breakfasts and interesting conversations happen each and every morning at 8 a.m. In the kitchen you can make a hot drink or read the daily paper.
Next you may want to step out onto the front porch and find a comfortable chair or walk the stone pathway and observe the many carved bears who are also observing the view! Then you will want to sit in the gazebo with the one you are with, along with your favorite drink, and reminisce all the good times you have had, and plan special ones in your future.
Your breakfast experience will include an individual fruit dish, egg soufflé, and a freshly baked breakfast cake served at a community table. After breakfast, Arlene will hand-crank her nostalgic 1916 acoustic “Victrola,” housed in its original mahogany cabinet.
The Dining Room seats 10 guests. There is a beautiful oak table and chairs facing a large stained glass window.
