"Thank you, Gwen and Tom for taking care of our Inn for 8 days while we were enjoying our grand daughter and family in Pennsylvania. It was such a delight to come home to everything ship shape. My husband said it looked cleaner than when we left......We will certainly be having them back, so professional and just a delightful couple and I hope our friendship continues to grow. The guests wrote wonderful reviews in our logs." Tom and Wendy, Owners/Innkeepers, Braeside Inn, Sevierville, TN
"We had never used innsitters in the past and were naturally a bit concerned but when Gwen and Tom arrived, we were greatly relieved. It became clear that our home and the inn were in safe and reliable hands. We would highly recommend the Patons and will definitely use them again. The Inn was well looked after, the guests kept happy and comfortable and they quickly and efficiently settled into a routine, taking care of guests, taking reservations and all the rest." Mike and Laura, Owners/Innkeepers, Terrell House, Burnsville, NC
"Thank you so much for all that you did last week. The Inn looked great when we returned yesterday, and the comments we heard from guests have all been so complimentary. It was so helpful to know that the Inn was in good hands while we were away. It made a difficult time easier. We will definitely be in touch when we need your expert help again.

"Since a bed & breakfast depends so heavily on repeat business and referrals, it is usually with some trepidation that we entrust our business to someone else’s care, but with Gwen and Tom we needn’t have worried. They were a quick study, learning our procedures, so they could do things our way. They took good care of our guests’ needs, kept the building and grounds clean and in good repair, kept the plants healthy and the cat happy, and kept the reservations rolling in. Their computer skills were very useful, and their ability to deal with unexpected situations meant that we could actually relax on our vacation, knowing that Gwen and Tom could handle whatever came up. We will not hesitate to use them again."

"Tom & Gwen Paton have lots of innkeeping experience having owned two different inns over the years. I have known them for almost 8 years as both fellow innkeepers and friends in Luray, Virginia. They were active members of the Virginia Bed & Breakfast Association when I served as President.
Tom & Gwen know all the "in's & out's" of innkeeping. With their many years of experience, they will do an excellent job of taking care of your inn, as well as your guests. They have always paid close "attention to detail" and this will show in the inn sitting service they will provide for you. I am sure you will be happy choosing them as your innsitters."
Eleanor Ames, Retired Innkeeper
Past President, BBAV (Bed and Breakfast Association of Virginia)
"I first met Tom & Gwen when I sold them their first B&B in 1995. Their creativity & enthusiasm transformed an under-performing inn into a dynamic, prosperous one. They accomplished the same feat on their Virginia B&B. I gladly give my wholehearted endorsement for them as innsitters. It would be difficult to find another couple who enjoy & thrive more in the hospitality venue. "
