Imagine That....

This was where Squire Miller and his family lived. 

Today, this room bears the name of the "1757 Dining Room."  Still boasting the original plank flooring, along with an original door and lock-(the owners say it's the best one in the house!) it offers the hallmark in superb dining experiences.

With a grander way of living in these modern times of ours, it is hard to believe a family of seven could have been raised in such close living quarters, but fortunately for our patrons, it is the perfect setting for those special occasions. Think romance, think quaint and cozy,  and be surrounded completely by history and nostalgia.  

 Many a muse has been shared in this room over the years, but of course while comfortably enjoying a fabulous meal that even the Squire would have been proud of! 

 Check out our delicious menu selections thoughtfully chosen to please even the most discerning palates.

Getting Ready for Pippinfest!

Put it on your calendar! For those of you that aren't familiar, Pippinfest is an old-time country street festival celebrating the Pippin apple and featuring arts & crafts, apple products, live country music, antiques, vintage cars and great food! It takes place all along main street in Fairfield. 

The Inn will be hosting a bluegrass band, participating in the community yard sale on Saturday and of course, we will be serving our famous turkey legs! Don't forget to stop by and say hello and while you're at it, have a cup of hot cider or an order of pumpkin fritters. 

For more information on the festival itself, call 717-642-5640. 

The Journey Through Hallowed Ground

Hello everyone!  It's been a whirlwind week as usual and it seemed to slip by without some sort of update on the latest happenings going on here at the Inn-so sorry!  So, here is a quick update:  our Innkeeper just returned from a seminar at the David Wills House which covered lots of ground; 180 miles worth to be exact-and she did it in just one afternoon.  In anticipation of the 150th anniversary celebration of the American Civil War, participants studied and familiarized themselves with "The Journey Through Hallowed Ground: which stretches from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania through Frederick County, Maryland and ends at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello near Charlottesville, Virginia. The main objective of all this, of course it to be able to offer, you, our guests, the most positive and memorable experience possible.  For more information, please contact Andi Amin at the Inn. 717-642-5410 and she will be happy to share more with you regarding our National Heritage Area and National Scenic Byway.

It's a Cream of Broccoli Soup Kind of Day!

I overheard Chef Sal muttering under his breath that today is putting him in a "fall" sort of mood.  Now it's all starting to make sense; all that fresh broccoll I saw him chopping as I walked past the kitchen is going into the most fabulous and fresh cream of broccoli soup.  Come grab a bowl!
