Meet our newest member of the family-- Ozzy 😍 If you've visited the inn recently he probably came to greet you at check-in. Don't worry (or unfortunately?), we do not allow cats in the guest rooms or common areas but are more than happy to arrange a meet and greet in the front office. Come say hello!

Rain or shine, the only forecast we care about this weekend is a 100% chance of world-class seafood. 🦀✨
Crab Festival at the Grafton Oyster Bar is worth the road trip. We’re talking next-level flavors that make any drive down the The Great River Road entirely necessary.

The weather doesn't stand a chance against a menu this good. Take a look at what’s waiting for us this weekend (June 27 & 28).👀

See you on the deck! 🌊

Flotsam River Circus is coming back to town ~ let’s show them a huge Alton welcome! They’ll be rehearsing and assembling their boat at The Alton Marina in early August before performing at the Lincoln Shields Recreation Area on August 25th. Here’s how you can help:

Because the crew will be based in Alton for a while, they’re looking for community support in a few specific ways. Most urgently, they are looking for lodging for their ten-member crew from August 11th to 21st. They are also looking for volunteer hands to help with boat assembly on August 8th, and any help with meals during their rehearsal period to allows them to focus on getting the show ready.

A few members of the Flotsam crew are doing a benefit event THIS FRIDAY, June 12th at The Conservatory (554 E. Broadway) at 8:00 PM. If anyone could offer them a place to stay after the show on Friday please reach out!

If you’re interested in helping with any of the above, please reach out via email at [email protected] or by phone/text at (206) 434-5802. Or just come and say hello at The Conservatory on the 12th! For full details:

Peach season is here!

Pick-Your-Own Peaches open this Tuesday at our Belleville Farm, and the trees are loaded with sweet, juicy peaches just waiting to be picked.
