Dear Alan & Kurt,
Thanks for a great weekend. Your warmth and hospitality were way
beyond what we expected. All the food was delicious…even the
last few bites of the banana, almond and chocolate French Toast!
Hands down the best hotel /
B & B / motel experience we've had…either
here (in the US) or in Europe!
Warmest regards,

Dear Alan & Kurt,
Thank you for everything. You made this weekend one of the most
memorable weekends of my life. Your place is gorgeous and service
equally as extraordinary. Nikki and I will certainly be back with
all of our friends. Last night my mother told me this was one of
the best birthdays of her life.
Thank you again for everything.

Alan & Kurt,
You have taken the concept of B & B to a new level…the
combination of location, hospitality, food and conversation cannot
be beat. We will be back again for the fifth…or is it sixth
time when fishing season kicks in…April / May.

Alan & Kurt,
We cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful weekend.
Your hospitality surpasses all possible expectations. You guys
have created something special, and you have inspired us with
what is possible when two people engage in a labor of love.

Dear Alan & Kurt,
Thank you for your wonderful conversations!!! This weekend
get away was very relaxing. The two of you are the most caring
and accommodating hosts I've ever had. You made my first
experience at a B & B wonderful and memorable. Also….
to many more visits in the most wonderful, relaxing place
and a new formed friendship. Thank you for everything and
your wonderful hospitality.
Cordially,

Dear Alan & Kurt,
Thank you for making my 50th birthday something I will
never forget. There wasn't anything undone. Your hospitality
and hard work throughout the weekend was greatly appreciated.
I am so glad that we had an opportunity to share with you
our special time. Ricky and I will be back many more times.

Dear Kurt & Alan,
Great to see Alan again and to meet Kurt. Wonderful
weekend! And…despite my fishing partner…we
caught 87 fish in the river in one day! I'll bring my
wife back next time.

Alan & Kurt,
Thanks so much for your hospitality and warmth on
our 1st Anniversary and our 1st stay at ECCE. We'll
definitely be back…there's so much to do. We
have to read from each chair in the yard and look for
more birds and eat more food and talk! Busy, busy,
busy. Felt so comfortable right from the start.
Thanks again.

Dear A & K,
I have never stayed in a more beautiful place…or
a more comfortable, unostentatiously luxurious one. (Or
one with pencil-signed Hirschfelds hanging in the hall!).
Consider me a regular henceforth.

Dear
Alan & Kurt,
This was a weekend memories are made of. This
is one of the most beautiful places on earth and your
hospitality is amazing. You are most gracious hosts.
We were pampered and spoiled. Needless to say, we intend
to visit again and again.
Thank you so much.

Dear
Alan & Kurt,
What a wonderfully relaxing time we had.
Even though I grew up in the area, the experience
of staying with you guys was a completely new
one to me. The room was great, the view is excellent
and the service you provided was top-notch. What
I thought was great was your ability to "mix" the
crowd. I've stayed at other B & Bs where
people just ignore each other. You guys were
great facilitators of conversation.
Best of luck and see you soon.

To
Kurt & Alan,
I am at a loss for words. This place
was great. Your attention to detail was exceptional.
The house and views were literally breathtaking.
We have no doubt "ECCE" will be the
Best Bed and Breakfast. We also want to give
both of you a heartfelt "Thank You"
for making our 25th Wedding Anniversary
fantastic. Thanks,

We came. We were broken. Now we are
healed.
Our best to you both.

Alan & Kurt,
Thank you for a tremendous weekend.
We stay at a lot of B & Bs (higher
end) and find yours to be #1 on our
list. The setting, accommodations,
food, quality and most of all the great
conversations made our getaway weekend
perfect. I am your new PR firm. I have
told 15 people so far and plan sharing
with more. And we definitely will be
back.
Thanks,

Kurt, Alan and Mother
Nature make ECCE what it is…."A unique B & B".
Kurt and Alan bring out the best in people and Mother Nature provides
the best backdrop. This combination makes each visit something
new to "behold". Can't wait for the next visit.

Alan & Kurt,
Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! You made our 3rd Anniversary
truly memorable (Thanks for the gift!). We love our room with
its' fantastic views…the eagles were a special treat! All
the food was fantastic…and so attractively presented! We
loved eating outside on our final day. You were the perfect hosts…making
sure we had everything we could possibly need, from recommendations
on dining to directions to get there.
Thanks so much! We'll be back!

Fabulous Hosts - Alan & Kurt
- You really made us feel like never leaving! Your home and surroundings
are truly magical. Thank you for sharing. From the star filled
night to the bald eagle sighting - unforgettable! We will be back.
Can't wait to test out the river in the summer!
Warm regards,

Dear Alan & Kurt,
All of the details you so carefully and thoughtfully included make
for such an incredible stay. Thanks for the lift to the kayak
launch - you certainly saved the day.
We'll be back - just try and keep us away!

Dear Alan & Kurt,
I don't know how , but over our several visits here, this has
become like a home, you have become like family and your
breath taking view has become our very definition of peace
and beauty. Thank you for making this place so special-we
look forward to many more weekends here. I feel a bit like
Warren Buffet who says this about the stocks he likes-"I
am never going to sell this stock"- for me the equivalent
statement is-"I
am always going to be back here"-there are some things
you just know.
Love,
Kirtee and Sushma |
