If we could rate with 6 stars we would! For my fiance's 30th birthday I surprised her with a weekend getaway to BI and a pleasant one at that (to say the least!). The grounds of Garden Gate are away from the hustle and bustle of town but no too far, just enough to have complete peace and quiet. The grounds at Garden Gate are beautiful and well kept. There some great outdoor living same with a firepit, lounge furntiure, and bbq grill. The inside is very clean with plenty of great natural light. We stayed in the Lily Room which we absolutely loved. It is a spacious and comfortable room with a great queen bed, two lounge chairs (perfect for gazing out the windows), and also includes a coffee table, a desk with chair. and a mirror-dresser. The ceiling fan is a huge bonus and works wonders. The bathroom had everything we needed as well. Don and Diane are such wonderful people. They are very friendly, down to earth, and just cool people. We had great vibes around them and the house. They are also great to chat with and make an amazing, unique, and well-rounded breakfast each morning. We loved it there so much we extended our trip an extra night. We cannot wait to go back. Thanks again to all involved to help make this trip unforgettable for us both. Best, Winslow & Kira
