The inn is unique in another way: It charges per person, so singles who want to get away from the city can retreat to a place that doesn’t put the emphasis on couples (which isn’t to say that a room overlooking the waterfalls wouldn’t serve as a romantic retreat for two). Also, several of the rooms are large enough to accommodate families: The stone-wall, wood-beam suites on the third floor can sleep six.
The inn’s hospitality extends to meals as well. Breakfasts includejuice, fresh fruit, cereals, yogurt, cheese, bagels, muffins, breads, and eggs. Dinners vary with the whim of the chef. On Saturday nights in summer there are outdoor barbecues.
20 double rooms with baths. Restaurant, swimmingpond, sauna. $80—$150; full breakfast and dinner. MasterCard, Visa. No smoking in dining room.
