These guests have stayed with us every February
since we opened
our B & B fifteen years ago. This
is their way of checking out.
June 08, guests from Newcastle, Mitchell's Corners, Lindsay
and Norland drove up to our B & B in their Model A's.
What a nostalgic experience to see four fully restored 1929 - 1931 vehicles.
Gas was 4.5c liter then and the Model A sold for $575. It was the first
all steel automobile, 4,849,340 were manufactured and there are still
over 300,000 in use today.
Dear Don and Jessie,
We're back home again in England and just wanted to thank you for your
hospitality during our stay with you a couple of weeks ago. We visited
six different places in Canada and had a wonderful holiday but those
couple of days at Stouffer Mill are the ones we are talking about most.
We've kept your brochure and will be recommending you to anyone we meet
who is considering a trip to your part of Ontario.
Thank you again. Have a great summer.
Ray and Jill Arrowsmith

Hi Jessie & Don,
Thanks again for the wonderful stay. Here are the birds that Sue and
I saw and/or heard during our visit. I’m also adding a few species
at the end of the list that we didn’t see/hear, but that I’m
sure will show up on your property at some point.
Cheers,
