Beautifully renovated historical hotel with a super friendly welcome. Our room was spotless and really comfortable. There is some train noise during the night but it didn’t bother us that much (and would have been solved by ear plugs). The coffee and muffins from the bakery downstairs were sublime.

Serenity in the mountains

This hotel is a wonderful, unique, historic building. The rooms are a little small, but there is a large sun room that is available to all guests. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. I came to visit for a quiet getaway and it was absolutely perfect.

We had a wonderful stay at the Bush House Inn. The owners are welcoming, the food is fantastic, and the setting is surreal. We loved our expansive top floor suite with mountain views, a game room, and private bath. Everything was clean and comfortable. We’ll definitely return here next time we’re in the area.
