LA Times April 2003
The common areas were anything but. Done in rich, dark colors and furnished with period pieces, they beckoned guests with comfortable couches, a square grand piano made of rosewood and a dining room where the buffet always tempted with a homemade treat.

Karen Brown’s guide to Pacific Northwest (July 2003)
...1911 Colonial-style mansion on the National Register of Historic Places. This was originally the home of Emma Smith DeVoe, a noted suffragette, whose photo holds pride of place on a desk in the sitting room. This is a handsome, spacious room with dark-red walls, white woodwork, shuttered, lead-paned windows, black marble fireplace, and furniture appropriate to the period. Your enthusiastic and personable hosts, the Teifkes, are keen collectors of antiques, which you find throughout the house. Outside, the 1˝ acres of pretty grounds create an in-town oasis.

"This place has service down to an art. Cheryl and Dave's historic property blends traditional styling with modern amenities. Vacationing couples will love the soaking tubs and classic in-room movies; business travelers will appreciate the early coffee tray and work space; everyone will love the fabulous gourmet breakfasts." The Unofficial Guide to Bed and Breakfasts in the Northwest (First Edition)

"This three-story colonial mansion offers travelers an elegant retreat and a little history to boot. Inside, the DeVoe Mansion is no less grand than it's facade.
