This beautiful home was built in 1902. It has had many wonderful years as a family home. In 2018, it was purchased and renovated into a bed and breakfast. Everything was completely redone and repurposed. They did a wonderful job of creating a thriving rental house business. In 2022, Matt and Joy purchased this business and plan to continue to operate it as the previous owners did.
We hope you enjoy your stay at Trailside Inn!
Sincerely,
Matt & Joy
