“If the kitchen is the heart of the home, the porch is its soul” (unknown). Soothe your soul with some good old-fashioned porch sitting at Blessings on State Bed & Breakfast. Relax on a garden bench or swing. Dine in the formal dining room or in the beautifully landscaped backyard gazebo. We’ve planned our landscaping and gardens for all seasons. It’s been said that our gardens have “good bones.” We begin with late winter blooms and continue through the fall, with a structural foundation and continues the show, even when covered with snow.
