A highlight of the stay was the five-course dinner which was magnificently prepared and presented and we’ve never eaten a better meal…anywhere…ever. All the meals were works of art. Hats off to the entire kitchen!” Mark S, Google Review

Guests often rave about Chef Dayn’s meals, carefully selected wine pairings, and a multi-course dinner that becomes the highlight of their stay. It is an experience meant to be savored slowly and together.
