- Great Getaway
My nights at the Granville Queen Inn were nights to remember. From the elegantly appointed rooms to the fabulous several course breakfasts served in the dining room or on the enclosed front porch, I loved it. The hosts, David and Dora, made me feel welcome. Home baked cookies are available in the dining room for a little snack. It is a great way to relieve work stress with a mid-week visit, or spend a weekend for a special occasion.
