The Whispering Pines Inn Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Really like the one night stay with one exception. The bed itself was too soft for us and could have used better support as it seemed to be uniform. Some spots in the mattress seemed to be better supported and some softer. Everyone was very nice. Breakfast was great and delivered to our room. Spa worked great. Roomy and clean."
