This past Sunday, we wrapped our participation in another successful Holiday Tour of Historic Inns and Cookie Caper! We welcomed over 300 guests to tour the historic Brightwaters Guesthouse (Garden and Verandah)! Thanks to our volunteers, and the village of friends and family that helped to make this a beautiful event!
