My husband and I stayed at the Sword & Anchor recently for our 1st wedding anniversary. I can't think of a single bad thing to say. The building is immaculate, and well maintained. Jane was very nice, and easy to talk to and breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Great location easily accessible from Hwy 103 and scenic view out front. more
