I recently stayed at Smith's B&B for four nights and had a wonderful experience. The house was warm and welcoming and Mark and Beth even more so. The breakfasts were WONDERFUL. I'm still dreaming of the homemade bread. It was in walking distance to downtown. I would stay there again in a heartbeat and would recommend it highly!
