We're staying at the Inn at Honey Run, a remarkable hotel about 3 or 4 miles outside Berlin. I bought a Groupon to this place on a whim this winter, and Evelyn and I picked this weekend to come use it. I don't know if we'll ever be able to afford the place without taking advantage of a special, but we'd love to come back. Everything about the place is perfect for the location. It's nestled into a woodland environment, surrounded by five-story-tall trees, with an elegant but comfortable atmosphere and friendly service.
Part of our package was breakfast served in the room this morning, and it was wonderful--elegantly presented and every bite tasty--far more than we would normally eat for breakfast. In fact, we wrapped up the scones to enjoy later.
I had decided we'd have one really nice meal on our trip, so I made a reservation at the lodge's
restaurant. We weren't disappointed. Not only was the food served with a gourmet flair, but the setting was beautiful. We were seated by two six-foot-tall corner windows looking out on the woods surrounding the lodge. By the time we were finished, the rain was coming in torrents, and it was beautiful to sit inside with dessert and watch it pelting the leaves of the maples and pines.
