Really nice stay!
This vintage bed and breakfast was a great stay. Room was comfy and clean, breakfast was great, and the back porch was awesome for relaxing and wildlife viewing (lots of beavers in the lake and TWO black bears!) Would definitely stay again!

All of the above! The staff is exceptional. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. I am so glad that we didn’t stay at one of the bigger named hotels. I am handicapped and was very concerned about not having an elevator. The staff helped with our belongings. I am looking forward to going back in warmer weather. Fairplay is such a nice town.

Amazing Mining Era Hotel nestled in the heart of ole Downtown FairPlay . Comfortable beds and you feel as though you are peacefully placed back in time when life was simple and we all had patience. The most exceptional InnKeeper Cassie makes you feel important and welcome . Great Food and the best back top floor patio for hot cocoa or coffee over looking what’s left of untouched land.
