I used to love going here for dinner..but the last two times I've been I have to say were a disappointment. i enjoy their "game pie" very much but when I vary from that I am not a satisfied customer. Their fish was dry and done poorly and the desseret was a small slice of stale pie....Sorry guys but you... More

My husband and I have stayed here and eaten our meals here about four times now. We love it and have never had any problems at all. We do believe it has some ghostly guests! More

My friends and I have been dining at the Farnsworth every New Year's Eve for the past 6 years. It has become very different from the first few years we went when they had Civil War Sing-A-Longs and wonderful traditional food such as sauerkraut and pork, etc. We ordered the meatloaf and were served 2 thin slices that were dry...

It is extremely overpriced. Our room was not clean. We had a garden room that was very damp. We were very disappointed because it did not meet our expectations. The staff was very nice, and the food was good. More
