Introduction
Read MoreSquiers Manor Bed and Breakfast is an experience you will treasure always. Built in 1882 for Mr. J.E. Squiers, this brick Queen Anne style mansion originally featured rich, beautiful woodwork and modern conveniences such as electricity and running water. The Squiers tradition continues today with the home and woodwork restored to its past splendor. Even the tradition of modern comfort is carried on with in-room telephones, private baths with single or double Jacuzzis, television and queen size beds. The antique decor, crackling fireplaces and Victorian ambiance provide for quiet times and intimate moments. A special candlelight dessert is served in the dining room each evening and every morning guests awaken to the aroma of baked goods and a full gourmet breakfast. All of this and superior service, described recently by a guest as "definitive hospitality," make the decision for a return trip to Squiers Manor an easy one.
