Set high on a hill above the scenic Buffalo Creek, on 36 acres with wonderful views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Short Hills, Applewood Inn offers bed and breakfast lodging accommodations in a very private and beautiful setting.

The passive solar home is furnished with antiques, quilts and original artwork, and the massive enclosed porches on the south side afford wonderful views of the surrounding woods, pastures grazed by llamas, and the distant mountains.

This unique three-level hillside Inn has four guest rooms. On the ground level are two rooms, each with private bath. Each of these rooms opens onto a small porch so guests may enjoy the lovely vista. Completing this level is a marvelous hot tub room that opens out through french doors on the hillside. On the second level are two adjoining guest rooms with private baths, each opening out onto the largest of the porches. Also on this level are the common room with fireplace, library and satellite television with VCR, the dining room; main kitchen; guest pantry and off the east end, a lovely in-ground pool and patio with gazebo. All four guest rooms have queen-sized beds, with one offering an extra single-sized bed. Two rooms have two-person Jacuzzis, and three have fireplaces.

Breakfast is truly a movable feast and may be served on one of the porches, in the dining room or in the large Inn kitchen. In keeping with the overall atmosphere of the Inn, the breakfast menu usually includes many heart-healthy dishes such as Gingered Peach Breakfast Souffle or Multi-grain Waffles, fresh fruit, and fresh baked breads served with homemade preserves. A hot water dispenser and huge selection of beverages to go with it is available to guests any time of the day or night. Guests who want to sleep late may arrange for a continental breakfast to be left outside their room.

As guests approach the Inn along the winding Buffalo Creek, leaving it to follow a stream up the hill to the Inn, they enter a world unto itself, where wildlife abounds and time seems to stand still. Linda and Chris, your hosts and innkeepers since 1978, welcome you.
