The Sanford House has 8 guest rooms available within the house, with 4 private cottages on the grounds. Each of the guest rooms are non-smoking, and include either king or queen beds, vintage furniture pieces, cable TV with premium channels and remote, high speed Internet access, private bathrooms, complementary local calls, and breakfast.

Our room, the Strauss Room (shown above), is over the carriage house, with a balcony that overlooks the grounds, and is popular with newlyweds. The room includes a king bed with large Baker armoire from the 1920s, a Meyer-Gunther-Martinin sofa, and vintage lamps dating to the 1950s.


Sanford House Guest Rooms
Each of the Inn guest rooms are named after famous musical composers including Handel, Brahms, Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Vivaldi, and Strauss, and are tastefully decorated. Click on each image above to see a closeup view of the guest rooms available.


The 4 cottages are secluded, offering private gated parking, with features which include large living rooms with oversized leather couch, recliner, gas fireplace, cable TV with VCR and remote, dining room, king bed, and kitchen, with refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. For total relaxation, each large bathroom includes a shower and Jacuzzi for two.

Breakfast was a mesmerizing feast served up by the Inn's chef, which included a mix of fresh kiwi, pineapple, tangerine, apple, and strawberries in cantaloupe, with muffins, coffee, and orange juice. This was followed by a spinach frittata with hollandaise sauce, freshly made biscuits, Canadian bacon, orange slices, and cinnamon apple crepes.

At the entrance is a winding circular staircase which takes you to a recessed bookcase and the guest rooms. The parlor, dining area, grounds, and pavilion are available for meetings, weddings, or other special events.

Everyone needs to be pampered, and the Sanford Spa and Salon provides complete massage, hair, and facial services just across the street. After your spa treatment, relax with a glass of wine, by a tranquil wall waterfall and above fluffy clouds decorating the recessed ceiling. Arrangements can also be made for services within your guest room. For newlyweds, inquire about the full-day bridal package.

We would like to thank the Sanford House for assisting with our feature and accomodating us.
