Truly a one-of-a-kind stay, this lovely building, once a tavern, is now a B&B that overlooks a 40-acre wetland that the owners restored themselves after purchasing the property in 1991. The once-barren field is now home to numerous endemic species of frogs, plants, birds and other wildlife. Penn's Creek rushes by, making this an ideal spot for fishing aficionados.
