Lorraine is a very warm and informative host. The Wayside Inn has been in her family since 1978. It was formerly a girls dorm for the nearby college. Our room was clean and comfortable. Everything at the inn is old, which can be charming, however, it was not. Carpet in the common area is full of stains and smelly. Furniture is well past its prime. Nothing (electrical, plumbing, etc. is modern). There was a breakfast, but it was terrible. Our room was very spacious. The location is sensational, and if money was invested to improve and beautfy the property, and if a good breakfast were served this place could justify high room rates. We paid $695 for two nights, and it was totally not worth that. More appropriate pricing would have been $100/night.
