The Pines of Dresden

All around wonderful experience. We took advantage of the chef prepared dinner and so we glad we did. Both our dinner and breakfast were fresh, high quality and delicious. Rooms and outdoor space were all lovely and relaxing. The fire pit was a great place to enjoy in the evening. Allison is a wonderful host, very accommodating and interacts just the right amount. My husband and I loved our stay here.

When one decides to take a trip for one's birthday, it is always fun to look at all of the possibilities. But nothing beats going somewhere that is quaint, peaceful, and most of all, the perfect time to catch up with old friends. The Pines of Dresden fulfills all of these things and so much more. I will be perfectly honest with all of you. I have never been to an actual bed and breakfast. Of course, I had seen movies and tv that portray them as quaint affairs but I had never personally experienced one. So everything about The Pines was new and exciting and beautiful and amazing and oh so memorable. When you first arrive, you are treated to a scene straight out of a postcard. The noble house has stood the test of times and now it welcomes guests on a regular basis. The entire yard is surrounded with benches and swings and hammocks along with a gazebo and a fire pit to welcome you and to enjoy during your stay. As you walk in, you are immediately hit with an incredible sense of time just passing away. The common room is comfortable and inviting with it's coffee and hot tea stations and probably the best rocking chair I have ever felt. I spent some time in that rocking chair and let me tell: it's perfect for reading! Depends on where your room is you will either be going downstairs or upstairs. My room was downstairs so I was lucky to pass thru the most amazing kitchen just waiting for people to sit down and eat. For breakfast, you can share that table with the other guests and experience a delicious breakfast cooked by the amazing Allison. Her beauty shines thru with her cooking and her wonderful stories. Finally, when I get to my room, I automatically feel at home. You know how sometimes it is difficult to get comfortable at night to sleep? Well, I do have that problem the first night but not here. So comfortable and quaint. To quote the legendary Eagles, The Pines gave me a peaceful easy feeling. During my time there, I took full advantage of the small town atmosphere that lent an extra feeling of security and peacefulness. Waking up before breakfast gave me to the opportunity to prepare some hot tea and sit outside in the front. This is going out to everyone! Don't underestimate the beautiful porch in the front. It is sometimes forgotten but it has a wonderful charm. And that view in the morning overlooking the front...truly heaven! As mentioned before, I spent some time reading during my stay. Along with the magical rocking chair, the gazebo is the ideal spot for reading during any kind of weather. Not just reading...you can also enjoy a drink or two...and if you feel very adventurous, you can stroll around the beautiful Pines yard. In this crazy world, we seldom have time to settle down and truly enjoy nature and the world around us. I highly recommend a visit to The Pines of Dresden and give your body and soul a chance to unwind and be thankful that a place like this exists in this crazy world. By far, one

We had a marvelous visit, and definitely recommend this B&B to the world!! Allison is a hoot, and by far the best hostess we have experienced. The Pines is a grand old dame of a building that has been carefully maintained, and has great rooms for it's guests. The breakfast was remarkable, and the conversation around the table, as well as the previous evening, made for a very enjoyable social gathering. We hope to return with friends. Linda and Denny
