Susan Strickland comments: Owners, Charlene and Gary are the most warm inviting people! LOVE the Inn...DECOR, FOOD, and the " CAPTAIN'S QUARTERS" Enjoy the fabulous breakfast and meeting other interesting guests from everywhere who also loved this Inn and their stay here.

Mayri Hebert comments: A comfortable home away from home. Charlene & Gary are the perfect Host and Hostess. Each room is unique inspired by its own theme. The art murals and decor is spectacular and the food is a gourmet's delight.

DJ & Lorena Rourke comments: Best B&B experience we've ever had. Beautiful room. Wonderful Hosts. Great location for walking around and to the plays.

Bob and Barb Agonia comments: Charlene and Gary_ Thanks for everything. You two are like family, and that's our highest compliment. Amid Summer's Inn is my second home. Here I find warmth, solace, peace, stimulation of ideas, and friends-old and new. Thats what home is all about.

Mike and Connie Mudd comments: We've never stayed at a B&B before. You've made this a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back. Because you've made this very special, we'll most likely stay at B&B'S wherever we go. Thank you so much.

Carol Easterly comments: Amid Summer's Inn is a wonderful B&B. Our room was very clean, comfortable and relaxing and the whole house is decorated beautifully. Gary and Charlene made us feel like it was our home...they went over board to make our stay with them pleasant (even fixed us a special request "to go bag" for breakfast on the last day. Cedar City is also a really great "1950's clean, safe, small town). We have stayed in many B&B'S in Europe & this one rates equal with the top B&B'S in Europe.

Janice Reid/Kegley comments: Amid Summer's Inn in Cedar City is a wonderful place. The rooms are extremely comfortable and furnished beautifully, each with a different theme. Each contains a small refrigerator, television, and individual temperature control. Breakfast at Amid Summer's Inn is a gourmet delight with a exquisite selection hot & cold dishes. But best of all are the innkeepers, Gary & Charlene Elsasser, whose warmth & friendliness make one feel completely at home. In fact, it is not unusual for guests to appear at the breakfast table in pajamas& robe. I have stayed at many hotels & bed & breakfast inns in CedarCity and would not willingly stay anywhere but Amid Summer's Inn. My husband & I stay there about five times a year.

You, also, won't want to miss the extravagant assortment of homemade fruit smoothies. One guest wrote in the comment book, "The breakfast alone is worth the price of your room."

During the day, delight in home baked snacks and fresh fruit out on the beautifully decorated covered deck. Relax as you feel the peace and tranquility while taking a nap or reading a good book.
