Darlene and her husband Jim have lived on the three acre property since 1978. After raising four children, Darlene, along with her husband Jim, continued to restore the Victorian home while she conducted her interior design business. The last several years, Darlene has spent her time designing and developing a beautiful English garden. Her passion for creating a beautiful home and retreat are evident in every detail. You'll find Darlene in the garden tending to hundreds of varieties of plants and flowers, or in the kitchen cooking something fresh from the vegetable and herb garden.

Darlene's Spencer Estate & Guest Cottage remind guests of their grandparents' era, bringing back fond memories of days gone by. A sanctuary of relaxed elegance and a quiet retreat, the Spencer Estate reflects Darlene's personal creativity and offers a tribute to history. The restored 1895 home and grounds celebrate the glorious Victorian era.

Since we opened our doors in 1980, we’ve treated every guest like they were a part of our family. Others may offer similar accommodations, but our service comes with a personal touch, and our beautiful property will truly provide you with the retreat you are seeking.
