Okay. The most amazing part of that whole thing was how you started… “I made small reed baskets” Wow! That is impressive!

This is a great example. Thank you. We expect that we’ll have 5 rooms. My wife and I are planning to run the location together. The configuration is a bit in the air as our renovation on that floor won’t be for another year or so. At this point, we’re thinking of having one large table (6-8)...

My wife are about 2 years away from starting our B&B. We are starting the process of creating our Operating Processes. We know they will all likely change after we start, but we want to have a starting plan. The question is: What time do we serve breakfast? For example: Allow the guests to pick...

Thanks for all you’ve shared with the group. I’ve quietly enjoyed all the dialogue for the past couple of years. Have fun in retirement.

Thank you for all your insight over the years. You’ve had great feedback And it will be missed. Now, quit reading all this and go enjoy retirement. 😁

I know this is a very old post. I'm just curious. Did you ever get your funding?

We found a property that has 5 rooms and in the heart of town. Because of our conversation, the first thing I did was research the zoning and we’re good to go. This is about 5 years earlier then we expected, but the location and house is perfect. (Assuming that we are able to get through closing.)

Congrats and enjoy your retirement. As you are leaving, we are closing on our property in July. Hopefully we can carry your torch (metaphorically) 😁

We just came back from a trip on the East coast and didn’t see anything like this. Maybe it’s a Westlock coast thing. (I.e. the pillows move less when the earth shakes)

Looking in Door County.

We are looking at a few properties that will need to be remodeled in order to work in a B&B style room. We know some architects, but we’re wondering if it’s better to work with someone that has the background of working with a B&B. We’d like to stay with someone local but we’re not sure how to...

Nailed it!

Best of luck Myschae

Blueberry French Toast Puff would get me to order it. I tend to steer clear of bread pudding because some of the recipes use so much cream that is can be closer to pudding then I prefer. I guess it’s a little bit of a texture thing which my help describe the dish.

A little bit of a tangent, but would you mind sharing what you use to message your guests? Is it just native to the phone and their number or something that was built specifically for you location?

We’ll having a boring menu does not sound fun. Practical, but not fun. It is a good thought to give me pause as I think about how we approach the meals. We do plan to ask specifically about allergies and meal needs (Gluten free, vegan, etc.) I do hope we are able to offer a variety of different...

I love Gorgonzola and will definitely try it with the scrambled eggs. I do wonder how I’ll react when I have a guest that really doesn’t like one of the recipes. That has to be a little bit of a blow to the ego, so it will be interesting. I absolutely think about the timing. I actually make...

One of my favorite parts of our research is the recipe search. I have many (my wife thinks it might be a problem) cook books for breakfast. I try to do at least 3 new a week (I still work 50+ hours) and my wife, kids, and friends are the judges. In short, if I don’t get the majority of them to...

Welcome to the group. I’m new here as well and doing my research, though still several years out. There is a TON of info in the archives and the team here is amazingly open and honest with their experiences.

Class Act Dimitru! Karma will smile on you! Also totally agree with the comments about Gillum! I have to say with all the crazy stuff going on today, it’s really great to have a positive feed like this. Thank you all!
