The White Birch Inn

Exceptional

Liked: Beautifully updated building. Room/bathroom was spacious. Lobby, bar and screened in porch gave plenty of places to hang out. Happy hour had great wine choices to go with the cheese/fruit plate provided. Plenty of other choices provided at the bar to buy if wine is not for you. Try not to miss breakfast unless you can't get out of the comfy bed. Easy walk into town. Staff is great and really welcoming.
Disliked: Maybe extend breakfast hours to 10 or 10:30? Make ice machine more accessible (we hate bothering for something simple.) We have stayed at an inn that had a small freezer with prepacked ice bags, so no loud noisy ice machine in the hallway.

Liked: The White Birch Inn is housed in a 100 year old building that was converted to a quaint inn roughly 11 years ago. Sits in downtown Clayton, conveniently located within a short walk to shops & really good restaurants. Rooms are all themed. Ours was the Mountain Laurel Suite which had elevated rustic decor, a working fireplace, copper soaking tub and separate walk in shower. When we checked in there was a personalized welcome card and menus for each of us to select our multi course breakfast for the next morning. In the evening there is turn down service and a lovely list of local attractions and activities as well as the daily forecast for the area. Very nice touch. Linens & towels were great quality and robes are provided. The bed was very comfortable. There are many common areas including the reception area which houses a bar where they host a wine & cheese happy hour every evening. A delicious breakfast is served in another beautiful room. There is a patio with fire pit, and a couple of porches to enjoy.
Disliked: Can’t think of anything.
