"Very enjoyable, lovely spot. Would highly recommend it."

9.0

There was no breakfast, was told there were biscuits with coffee, but nothing for our 2 days. But the dinners were delicious!!! Top notch !!!

We did have trouble working the shower, not very user friendly! And the AC unit.....we had no clue, should have had at least a bit of instruction to help out. We managed with trial and error.

"Anniversary Dinner!"

10.0

We celebrated our anniversary at The Colonial Inn, and we had an absolutely wonderful experience. We had the House Salad, the Colonial Ribeye, the Crusted Lamb Chops, and the Red Velvet Cake. The food and the service were both outstanding, and the Lamb Chops were some of the best we've ever had. Thank you for a lovely dinner. We certainly hope to return soon!

"Very disappointed."

2.0

Food was just ok - prices way high for what we got. Waiter seemed to not care if we were taken care of or not. My filet mignon was mediocre, and the vegetable was tasteless, and for almost $50, I expect a lot better. We were very disappointed in our anniversary dinner and will not be back. If this business intends to thrive, they desperately need to bring the quality of the meals way up, as well as the friendliness and attentiveness of the wait staff.
