The inn is a smoke-free environment.  There is no smoking anywhere inside the Inn or anywhere on the property including decks and
gardens.  When it is necessary for us to deodorize a room due to a guest smoking, a surcharge will be assessed to the registered
guest. This surcharge ranges from a minimum of $200 on up, depending on what is necessary to return the room to its original smoke
free condition.

*Coming with a group?  Let us know when you book. Groups require a different booking policy.  Please inquire when booking your

THE LIVINGROOM/LOBBY CANNOT BE USED FOR FOOD/DINING/SNACKING OTHER THAN MR'S B'S COOKIES AND BEVERAGES.   If you
are bringing food and drink in your small cooler for snacking, do enjoy your treats on our two large decks at the side of the inn,
weather permitting.    Be sure to bring paper plates or other items you may need.  We do not always have them available.  We hope
you will use and enjoy these spaces as well as our garden areas.  They are a certified wildlife habitat and we think you will find them
and the decks a refreshing change of pace.  The only place in the garden that we don't allow food is the Zen Garden.

The third floor deck is a fire escape only and is not for guest use for anything but an emergency.  Doors opening to this deck were
put in many years ago in place of windows, and are used for fire escape purposes.  

We have an open patio on the restaurant level, for guest use, and the middle deck is open for seating as well. There are chairs and
tables,  which may be accessed outside by the stairway at the side of the building.
