The Barrow House was the most comfortable and enjoyable bed and breakfast experience that I have had. It was a wonderful experience. It has the cozy feeling of staying in someone's home, but guests also have complete privacy. The rooms are very large and very clean.

It might be right that everyone living in this little town are honest, but what about every tourist visiting…? The mattress was... more

I stayed at the Barrow House in late October and found it to be an ideal place to stay. My 2nd floor room which featured a Prudent Mallard bed, complete with an authentic spanish moss mattress, had EVERTHING anyone could want.
