Colonial Inn

"We booked 2 rooms on the weekend before the Christmas holidays. Since it was a busy time of year, the only rooms available were in The Barn. We were visiting with a child, so there was really no choice to stay in the Village Rooms or Inn anyway. The walk was really close to the Colonial Inn so it was not a big deal. I loved that there was complimentary coffe,e, tea, hot cider, and hot chocolate at the Inn anytime the cafe was open. Historic Smithville was decorated for Christmas and had nice things to do for kids (carousel, train ride, s’mores, talking Christmas tree, and light show). The only disappointment was not being able to get reservations at the Smithville Inn for lunch or dinner, as it was fully booked. I guess that needs to be secured well in advance during the holiday season. You must stay 2 nights on the weekends, but there was plenty to do."

"We stayed 2 nights in one of the Barn rooms and this place was excellent, clean and beautiful! The staff were so friendly and kind, we traveled to NJ for a funeral and it was so comforting to see a friendly welcoming face, asking how we were every time we came to get complementary teas and coffees. The breakfast baskets in the morning were charming , and the atmosphere was pleasant and we will definitely be back, and a recommending it to everyone. Thank you for all your hospitality!"

"We spent 2 nights in July. Stayed in Baremore room. The bed linens did not look clean, the carpet had stains and the bathroom smelled of old and mildew. It was not a good experience. We paid $325 per night and we had to book 2 nights eventhough we were just there for a wedding. Overpriced and overrated. Breakfast consisted of a small muffin or small croissant, OJ, coffee or tea."

"My husband and I got married at Smithville Inn in December. We utilized The Colonial Inn as our accommodations for ourselves and our immediate family and bridal party. As a hotel, they were excellent. The rooms are beautiful and very clean. The breakfast baskets are delicious! Everyone loved their rooms. We also loved how easy they made it when we were planning our wedding block. They were very informative and always ready to answer our questions as we got closer to our big day. We can't wait to go back and stay there to reminisce on our best day ever."

"The Colonial Inn is the perfect place for an easy stay away from home. The location for walking around the village was great. The staff was amazing and very friendly. They provided delicious cookies and select drinks like home brewed iced tea. The breakfast basket was very sweet and we were able to eat outside to enjoy the lake view. The room was pretty and clean, and the bed was comfortable. We would recommend the Colonial and will be returning!"
