About the Pine Garth:
The Pine Garth is the only bed & breakfast in Harbor Country situated directly on its own private beach. Bicycles, beach chairs and beach towels are all available for guest use. Our property is nestled along the lake shore on a quiet, country road landscaped among majestic old trees and lush flower gardens. The grounds are home to beautiful birds, rabbits and white tail deer throughout the year. We also share the Inn with Chelsea, the Pine Garth cat. While Chelsea does not generally enter guest rooms, but rather enjoys a nap in living room's midday sunshine, please advise our staff of an allergy to cats. Our knowledgeable staff will be more than happy to accommodate guests with information on local dining, parks, wineries, activities, and events, coordinating reservations as appropriate. Our property is within walking distance of fine dining, a casual cafe, grocery & convenience store, bakery, deli and cocktail lounge.
