The Carriage House:

The quest for a perfect room finds a successful climax tucked away on the top floor of Highlawn's Carriage House restoration. An oversized Victorian room with a high peaked ceiling and exposed beams, it's expansive, yet intimate.

A pink whirlpool bath built for two peeks from behind antique French doors set obliquely. Stunning forest green antique pressed tin ceiling panels frame the tub and contribute to the feel of a rustic garden. An enclosed shower, pedestal sink and small refrigerator complete the glassed-in bathroom.

Subtleties abound offering an endless supply of exotic memories. These are triangular windows, a restored hay door, specially created stained glass pieces and a library nook set for browsing.

Guests love the electronic remote that ignites a gas firestove at the foot of the queen size bed. Furniture is attractive and comfortable, and a custom-crafted corner cupboard hides a color TV, VCR and selection of videos.

The original cedar siding wraps the main inn's carriage house in a warm red glow.

This treasure for two is affordable at $205 per night .
