| - Okay, so this is my second review of Homestead House. For some reason I am no longer "attached" to the first review I did on 11/23/09 that you see here so I cannot update that one but instead choose to do a second review.
Since it's been about two years since my last review I though I should update. We stayed in the Sanctuary room again during the Christmas holiday. We just got a reservation as she was pretty much booked and I contacted Deanna only a month before. Since our very first stay back in 2007, I think that's the year she opened, this B&B is steadily busy.
During our five night stay all rooms were booked except for one day. Meeting other people over breakfast is always interesting and adds to our stay here. Many we have met are originally from nearby towns and are in town to visit family or friends but yet want the privacy that a B&B allows. Plus you get a wonderful and filling breakfast to boot!
I have to say that Deanna outdid herself as far as breakfast! She had the best variety so far. She served up fresh fruits to begin breakfast: pineapple, strawberries and blueberries. One of my favorite breakfasts was a 2-3 oz. steak wrapped in bacon, risotto (she added macadamia nuts that we brought for her), and asparagus spears. YUM! Everything was so delicious! Some of her other baked goods were cinnamon rolls, biscuits with her homemade cinnamon butter, and her homemade syrup was to die for! Wow, wow, WOW! Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day so staying here is like heaven!
It was much too cold for this Hawaii girl to wander outside for long periods but we did get to see the Christmas lights at the square just around the corner, so lovely all lit up at night.
