Bidrage med feedbackIt was my mother's birthday and Whispering Pines was a delightful surprise. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who made our evening feel very special. The food was top-notch, providing us with a fantastic culinary experience.
This place is wonderful and food was the best I have ever had. I don't like to eat out because home cooking is better than eating out. Not this time and that is the restaurant for dinner and also the in room breakfast. Jacuzzi was great and the room was very comfortable. I actually relaxed for a change. Thank you and hope to stay again soon when the trees are full of leaves.
We chose to eat outside which was serene and peaceful. Family owned and Dawn the owner and prior ICU nurse took care of us. She was sweet and we had an excellent meal with attentive service
Let me start by saying that the food was pretty good. This isn't so much a review of the food as it is a review of... I don't know... principle? I came to OpenTable looking for something new for V-Day. I found this place and decided to give it a try to have something different. We usually go to Ranch for special occasions. I booked the restaurant and we looked at the menu to determine what we wanted days before. We had planned to spend about $150 with tip. Well, we get there and find out the menu is prix fixe for the night. I think prix fixe menu's and prices are probably the biggest scams in the restaurant business and the one other time this has happened to us in NYC we got up and left... only this time it was V-Day and this place is so far out in the boondocks I don't even know if we could have gotten into Buffalo Wild Wings down the street. So, unfortunately, we stayed. Prix fixe menus usually limit it down to one or two main options but that wasn't the case here and why I think this was just a sham to get more money out of your patrons. You got to pick your main course from the same menu... only now you also have to take a lobster bisque, salad, and dessert that you don't want on top of it. And now instead of spending $52 dollars each for a filet and rack of lamb, we are forced to spend $95 dollars each for the food we didn't want. We tried each thing but it wasn't very good... let me take that back... I'm not a foodie so it was probably good if you like these other items but I didn't care for any of them. Even the desert... The Tiramisu was good, but why in the world did you not have a chocolate option on V-Day? You bring out two deserts and not one of them chocolate? So long story longer... We ended up spending $250 dollars instead of $150 for stuff we didn't want or eat just so they could take advantage of patrons on a day they knew they could get away with it. Needless to say, this put a bad taste in our mouth and we won't be going back.
My husband and sister surprised me with a Mother's Day reservation at this charming bed and breakfast, and we absolutely loved it! The setting was quiet and intimate, and the rooms were just as spacious and comfortable as they appeared in the photos. We stayed in the Secret Rose room, which I think is perfect for a romantic getaway, but it was also a lot of fun to experience with my sister. The highlight for me was the Koi pond with the blooming lily pads and the stunning red Koi fish. The king bed was cozy, the bathroom was luxurious, and the decor was elegant and inviting. And let's not forget about the food! We dined at the on-site restaurant and the meal was outstanding. I savored every bite of my sirloin steak, which was not only delicious but beautifully presented. The breakfast that was delivered to our room the next morning was also superb. I can't wait to return to this comfortable, cozy, and beautiful bed and breakfast with my husband!
