A quiet house on a golf course; we were the only guests. Significantly uphill from the trail, and clubhouse the only food option.

Great place to stay.
We had a very nice room with a private bathroom that was very clean. The staff at the Rock Run Inn were very friendly and helpful for all our needs. This place is very close to all the places we wanted to visit. We will stay here when ever we come to visit family.

It is quaint and quiet and the pricing is appropriate. The servers and breakfasts were perfect. We are definitely returning. We have new family in the area and will be making many more trips to visit --- we will be staying at John Butler House FOR SURE. If we can, we will try to organize everyone to meet and stay at JBH so that we can all be together. I think the rest of the family will enjoy it. Can't wait ------- see you soon!!!!!!!

Everyone is friendly. Helen, the innkeeper was not around when I arrived at the agreed upon time. I seem to be the only guest in this 5 room B&B, which is fine. The house is charming and my room is great. I can’t get the tv to work which is frustrating.

Forget breakfast. I waited 20 minutes and still hadn't been waited on. Trying to do a voucher at a golf course bar just doesn't work. Leave some bagels and peanut butter in the fridge - that would work better. Other than that, my stay was fine. I will stay there again - maybe a discount and I'll bring my own breakfast.

We barely saw anyone else staying at the house while we were there and we stayed at the house enough to sit on the porch and drink lots of coffee and eat most meals and watch all the golfers. As well as watch a few hours of our current series on Netflix in the LR. The breakfast at the restaurant next door was excellent!!!!

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, Jerry. Please accept my sincere apology for the unsatisfactory breakfast, Was it brought to the server's attention? She could have had it remade. I can understand your frustration. We pride ourselves in giving the best possible guest experience, and I’m sorry we fell short in this instance. Please join us again soon so we can make it right for you.

Great place off of the GAP Trail
My wife and I stayed here while on a bicycle trip along the GAP Rail Trail. You check in at the golf course’s restaurant and it was very easy. Food at the restaurant was very tasty and the staff and other patrons very friendly. We place is very mice and our room was large and comfortable. We didn’t get breakfast because we didn’t notice the breakfast vouchers until too late. But they give breakfast vouchers to the golf course’s restaurant. Overall it was a great stay that we would do again.

This place just seems so awkward as well as out-of-date. It looks like it was decorated by a grandmother in the 80s. All of the amenities (soaps, shampoo, coffee, etc) are cheap and nothing has any sort of personal touch.

Nice B&B on a nice golf course
This a four-bedroom house. Reminds me of Grandma's place. Our bed was a double. There was room for a Queen. That would be a nice upgrade. There is no employee on site and no one answered the phone numbers that they gave us so it would be difficult to solve an immediate problem. The keys were old-style metal keys that could be copied, making security a potential issue.

Nice Accommodation
Stayed two nights. The first "B" (bed) met expectations for a B&B stay. The second "B" (breakfast) was disappointing. Breakfast was actually only a voucher to the nearby golf club house grill, and limited in value. Service was friendly but slow, and the food was not exceptional. Great place as far as accommodations are concerned, especially if golf is part of thestay. But breakfast needs an upgrade.

Golf course views and solitude!
Enjoyed the stay, perfect for what I was looking for--clean well-kept accomodations. The golf course was a plus, wish I hada chance to play. The room might put some people off due to no manager on premises. But it is in a beautiful area and seems very safe, out in the country. If people and city is what you are looking for, try another.
