Guest Testimonials

We have both had a wonderful time staying in your beatiful house in Liverpool. The investments you have made in time and care to furnishing and decorating the Samuel Fairbanks House have been very much appreciated. This certainly is a much different place to the Liverpool we have in our country!

Samuel Fairbanks House - What a delightful and elegant home! We are very sad to be leaving. It was nice to be a Liverpuddlian for a week. Thank you for thinking of all the right things to make this a home away from home.

What a fabulous week we've had!!!  Wonderful water - such a lovely spacious cozy home. Castaway Ocean Lodge has a view to die for.  We loved Shelburne and Lockeport too; very quaint with lovely old house and so quiet and unspoiled.

What a gorgeous spot!  We loved the house and the property - saw deer, bunnies and porcupines.  Unfortunately the weather didn't co-operate - Hurricane Bill for our arrival and tropical storm Dan for our departure.  Nothing could hide the beauty of this spot.
