Have You Stayed in the Cortland Suite Lately?

Here at the Apple Bin Inn, we try to make some nice changes to our guest rooms almost every year.  It's our way of surprising our returning guests with a little something new (besides our graying hair!).  This spring, the Cortland Suite is showing off its cherry Pennsylvania House canopy bed, with a new pillow-top mattress.  After searching Lancaster County antique shops and consignment stores for the perfect thing, we heard about this wonderful old bed for sale... just outside of Hartford, Connecticut!   So after a couple of phone calls to negotiate the price, it was time for a little road trip... of course we made sure to include stops at some interesting antique shops and quaint restaurants along the way!  We returned home a couple of days later, all excited to see how the bed would look in its new home.  After putting it all together, adding a few extra support slats, and draping the new canopy, it was time to take this photo for our website.  And best of all, later this week we have some guests coming who have stayed in the Cortland Suite on past visits.  We look forward to their reactions :-)
