NOTICE: an attack on our database by an unknown hacker has destroyed the largest listing of B&B inns ever. We have a team reloading whatever  data we can salvage from our old database, and another team updating the INNformation as quickly as they can.

  •  We have suspended all charges to innkeepers for their listings. We encourage all inkeepers to check to make sure they are listed and listed correctly.  There is no charge.
  • Our demolished database is being repaired by our dedicated team of senior citizens. There is nobody on the team younger than 68 years old.
  • The database has been repaired as well as we can do with our records up through the states you see listed on the left. As of today, that includes Indiana.  
  • We are constantly adding to the list.
  • We need the innkeepers to check their own inn listings to let us know if our data needs to be updated for their particular property.  COME ON INNKEEPERS. WE'RE WORKING FOR YOU. TELL US WHAT NEEDS FIXING.

 
  We have a team working six days a week. They are adding INNs as fast as they can. They are going back through our archives and checking websites and making calls to update our facts. We need more details about the features of each INN. INNkeepers, call and tell us what we can add about your property that will help attract guests.
Our telephone number is 916-4 MY LIST

 Dangerous lists

Hi Fellow tavelers,

As do all other people who build webistes, we take a look at other similar sites. I hated to use the word similar because every other list of bed and breakfast inns I can find is not really similar. They have all kinds of problems. But I will comment on that later.

The reason for this note was that, in looking around their lists of B&B inns, I found that many of them listed internat links as a way to get to the internet home page of the inn. In a great many cases, these links did not go to the home page of an inn, but rather to some quite nasty pop-up ads and adware that tried to grab hold of my computer. Luckily I had protective software installed. But even with that, my computer was hit many times, requiring that I shut down and do a virus scan of the system. As of today, any links to inns that you find on our listings are safe to use. But beware of links from other lists.

I don't want to mention any specific inns, so I will make up an example. Let's say the inn is called Zebra Trail Inn. Their link might show up as www.zebratrailinn.com   That looks perfectly safe. But it may be a pop-up ad company lying in wait.

Congrats on your number of listings (Email from viewer)

I wanted to find a B&B inn in New Orleans and started with another directory. I also claimed to have the most listings. What I found out was that it listed the same Inns oever and over again in any nearby town so the claimed total number of listings was way over the actual number. They also added in listings from other areas, even other states. With your listing, I just picked Louisiana from the pull down menu, typed "New Orleans" in the search key box and it gave me 123 listings, most of them with pictures big enough to really see.

Thanks, Harold J.

Updates need input from our viewers

We have just inserted a great many updates for Massachusetts.  We find that some inns have been sold, some changed their names, some moved to a new location and some we just can't contact. So, if you are aware of any inns that need to be listed, deleted or updated in our listings,, please let us know. Our contact information is at the top of the page.
