I stayed there three nights and absolutely everything was terrific. Start with the front door, a masterpiece, the likes of which aren't made any more. Once the door open, there's the hubbie and wife team (retired teachers) who greet you as if you're an old friend. The house is a spacious old mansion owned by a former coal baron. It... More

The author and motivational speaker Charles Swindoll wrote what many people in all walks of life acknowledge ... that "the difference between something good and something great is attention to detail." Dorothy and Tom's generous hospitality and respect for their guests is reflected in this 'gift of attention': the bathroom has everything that you may need including quality products from... More

My wife and I aren't usually big B&B fans, but our stay with Dorothy and Tom couldn't have been a better example of hospitality and graciousness at it's best. From the moment you arrive you feel welcomed into very comfortable surroundings. From our beautiful bedroom (and bathroom), to the gardens outside, everything is in tip-top shape due to the hard...

From the luxury bed linens and delicious breakfast to the architectural detail and art work that graces the walls, McVicar Manor whispers charm and sophistication as soon as you walk in the door. Hosts, Dorothy and Tom, only add to the atmosphere with their warm welcome. The guest livingroom with its comfortable leather couches is the perfect place to curl... More
