Enter this opulent mansion through the welcoming classic portico surrounded by boldly colorful flower gardens and flanked by an ancient beech tree. Through the massive door, a grand staircase reminiscent of Hollywood-style entrances unfurls before you. The front desk staff and bellman offer a warm welcome, ready to make your stay extraordinary. Sumptuous decor of lush carpets, rich patinaed woodwork, impeccable fabrics, and expansive views of Frenchman Bay lull guests into restful reverie. Distinctive architectural details of multi-coffered ceilings, arched doorways, leaded windows and chandeliers please the eye and enhance the harmonious feeling. Balance Rock Inn truly preserves the splendor of the Gilded Age, when the mansion was so carefully designed, situated, and artfully constructed. Combine the luxury of days gone by with staff's warm, caring and unobtrusive dedication to guest comfort, and you'll want to return over and over again.
