As hospitable as it gets!
Dee was great! She's a top-notch, Paris-trained chef and she made the most wonderful breakfasts for us. And on the day we left, we had to leave before breakfast was normally served, so she made us a "to-go" breakfast before we left that was delicious! Thanks so much, Dee, for your wonderful hospitality!!!

Beautiful B&B
Deanna was a wonderful host, the proximity to downtown was very convenient and the room was clean and comfortable. The breakfasts were also very delicious. My only slight complaint is that the room was very dark, particularly at night when I couldn't get sunlight in, and the ceiling fan didn't work well. I like a "breeze".

Homestead House is a wonderful place to stay.
This is the second time my wife and I have stayed at Homestead House. Dee is great. She and her staff make wonderful gourmet breakfast for the guest every morning. The B&B is located in a quaint town with lots of charm. Dee goes out of her way to make her guests comfortable and all of their needs are met. Highly recommended.

This was our first bed and breakfast experience. It was a wonderful visit. Dee's knowledge of the area was very helpful. Her home cooked breakfasts were delicious and very filling. The home is beautiful and we were very comfortable. The location (around the corner from downtown) made it good for walking.

The Homestead House is absolutely wonderful! It’s beautiful furniture & structure is so elegant, yet the modern updates in the bathrooms & A/C keep you feeling relaxed & comfortable. Dee wowed is with her amazingly delicious English breakfasts that always included some kind of dessert 😋 We enjoyed her historical knowledge of the house & town. Willoughby is such a cute small town with many great places to eat & things to see & do as well! Awesome first B&B experience! We’ll definitely be back! Katie & Brendan ❤️

We had a great time at this b&b! Dee, the hostess, is very kind and welcoming. We stayed in the Victorian Rose room which was nicely decorated and featured a beautiful and comfortable king bed. Dee gave us excellent suggestions for restaurants and nearby places to explore. Her breakfasts were delicious and even included dessert! We hope to return.

Homestead House is a beautiful old mansion that has been kept up (or restored) very well. It is furnished with beautiful antiques. There are nice sitting rooms and a front porch with comfortable seats. The breakfast was wonderful. The proprietor, who calls herself a recovering accountant and financial officer, did some study at the Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris, and it shows in the breakfasts.
