    “We had a fabulous night at the Isabella B&B. A gorgeous house with a gracious hostess. I loved having the options for sitting on veranda, balcony, mens parlor or ladies parlor!  Bedroom is enormous.

    We are biking up the Trace and were happy to have a secure garage to park the bikes at night. Breakfast was delicious and Isabel was so kind to let us order a last minute sandwich, chips, fruit, drink lunch box to go (there are picnic spots galore on the route but not many places to get food without a detour)

    Finding gems like Isabella’s is my favorite reason to travel!”

  • Nell

    “We were well received and very well taken care of at Isabella. The place was very comfortable, clean and super welcoming. We are biking the Trace, they were attentive to our needs as cyclists, had great suggestions and support. Thank you for the awesome sandwiches for lunch.”

  • Patti

    “My only complaint is that we were at the Isabella less than 24 hours! The house is charming and the history interesting. The rooms are very large, comfortable, inviting and have everything you need for a relaxing stay. The owners have gone out of their way to make you feel welcomed with complimentary drinks, and specious social areas for relaxing, watching TV or reading a book. Breakfast was delicious. I cannot say enough good things about the owners or the home!”
