Alice's Dowry offers much more than just a room to sleep. The front parlor (pictured on the home page) and adjoining common room are furnished with antiques, the most comfortable sofa you ever sat on, cable TV, VCR, vintage slot machine and oak ice box. Bottled water and soft drinks in the fridge are compliments of "Alice." There is also a telephone here for your use. You may want to note: ATT and Cingular cell phones work well in the house; Verizon does not.

Thanks to Mother Nature, breakfast is served with perennial entertainment right outside the sun porch windows: Crocus in early spring play peek-a-boo through the melting snow ~~ hummingbirds join you for breakfast on summer mornings ~~ autumn leaves flirt with you as they dance in the wind ~~ and delicate snow flakes create a winter wonderland.

This is only a sampling of breakfasts at Alice's Dowry. Some breakfasts may include toast and jam or another baked good. Menus will vary due to availability of ingredients and whims of the chef.
We are acutely aware of dietary quirks and make efforts to accommodate our guests in this regard, however, advance notice is necessary.
