New Photos of the Interior of the Inn
We have owned the Bridges Inn for over 12 years and had never had the inn professionally photographed. We recently had Mark Corliss Photography / Multi-media Creations over for a day to photograph the inside of the inn. One of the benefits of...
Improvements to the Exterior of the Inn
We love to keep the Bridges Inn in tip-top shape both inside and out. We’re continually upgrading and improving the interior of the building. In Spring 2018, we concentrated on the exterior, tackling some much-needed work on the grounds. We began...

The Christmas Cactus
I have never had a "green thumb." In fact, I sometimes did so poorly with my house plants that we used to jokingly call them "disposable plants." When I bought the Bridges Inn almost 10 years ago, the house was totally furnished, including house...

“New” Chairs
Owning a house built in 1792 means that we continually make improvements, both inside and outside. We have updated the plumbing, electrical, and heating systems; we have replaced windows; done significant work on the slate roof; and landscaping. We...
