Brookside Inn At Laurens — Hotel in Town of Laurens

We didn't get much time to visit with Dave but Lori is a very warm and generous host. Because of factors outside of our control, we planned for three years to visit this location, while Lori was very accommodating throughout.

The room was very homey, and Lori made special arrangements to make our young sons - who grew three years larger from our original booking - more comfortable.

Overall, the house is thoughtfully arranged. There are great areas to relax, and Lori provides options to allow for snacking throughout the day - which our sons greatly appreciated.

The house is old, and has lots of character and the bathrooms are shared and somewhat small. I don't recall ever staying in a B&B where this wasn't the case.

That a lovely young couple with two little kids can manage a full house so capably is amazing. ||||Two-night stop on a road trip to Maine included a visit to Cooperstown. Brookside Inn's location was ideal - just a short drive through lovely country side. Pretty setting, truly brook side. Well maintained late 18th century house brought up to current comfort standards. Our room was large and had a private bathroom. Some rooms share a bath. Breakfast was fresh and hearty - eggs from the backyard chickens. Plenty of sweet and savory snacks available 24/7. In-room mini fridge is nice for road travelers. An extremely good value when compared to what was available in Cooperstown.||||Very quiet and there were two under 3's living in the back of the house that we never heard. Matt and Cameron are...
