Carriage House Suites
213 East Poplar Avenue
The Carriage House was a stable built by one of the owners of the 4 story victorian that occupies the same lot. Over the years the carriage house was expanded and converted to motel style units. We have completely upgraded all of the building's plumbing and electric, and in the process have been able to preserve some of the charm of the original structure.

The Robert Browning Hay Loft
This is a big suite (640 square feet) with lots of windows on all 4 sides. As we refinished the original hardwood floors, we determined based on the flooring pattern, this was the hay loft. The horizontal bead board and dramatic dormers give the appearance of an old loft, but the ceiling is comfortably high for taller individuals. There are 2 Queen beds in the bedroom and a daybed/trundle in the living room.
1-6 person occupancy
