This inn is just the loveliest! The owners provide the utmost in hospitality and they pay attention to every detail. Impeccably maintained and tastefully decorated, The Holly and Ivy is a comfortable boutique stay where everything you may need is provided with warmth and friendliness compliments of Kristen and Kevin. If you want coffee or wine on the porch or breakfast in the gorgeous dining room, it’s all there for you to kick back and enjoy. We just left and already can’t wait to go back!

This Inn is absolutely gorgeous and made me wish we had more time to spend in the area. The decor, amenities, and landscaping are fantastic. The entire Inn is completely spotless, and you can see the care and attention to detail the owners have put into this place to make it such a great place to stay. The owners are helpful and friendly. If you're looking for a place to stay in this area, skip the hotels and stay here.

We loved our stay at this inn. It’s a beautiful, well maintained house with lovely grounds full of mature trees lining the back yard. Our favorite was the back porch facing east; every morning we enjoyed our coffee while watching the sun rise above the trees and listening to the birds chirping. In the evenings we loved to relax there while listening to the chorus of tree frogs. The self-service style of the inn is unique. Don’t expect to be served a full breakfast but the fridge, in the beautiful dining room, is stocked with essentials. You can make yourself a simple breakfast, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and help yourself to all types of snacks throughout the day. The bedrooms are small but clean and comfortable. You have access to the whole first floor of the house where there are several nicely decorated rooms, including the the bright dining room, couple of living rooms and the reception area. The owners, Kevin and Kristen, are super friendly. We would stay there again!

My wife and I stay at the Holly & Ivy Inn when we visit family in the area. It's always clean, comfortable, and quiet, three things we value when finding a home away from home. Our latest stay was even better than prior visits with larger beds and improved kitchen amenities. We'll definitely be back.
