We stayed in the Sara Black Room for two nights. The room is beautiful and the location puts you right in the middle of everything. We walked to dinner both nights and never needed the car.
We did Milt's ghost tour on the second night. Worth every minute. He knows the history inside and out and keeps it interesting the whole way through. Our group was laughing and on edge at the same time. Highly recommend booking it while you're here.
We will be back.

When we entered the room one of the candle sticks was on. We turned it off, made sure it was off, and while we were settling in it turned back on! We also got different scents in the room but the most notible was a faint vanilla smell that came from no where. That night while sleeping my husband was touched by an unseen presence, heard a snare drum playing outside, and heard whispers of people saying that they are running to the gaurd house or tower. The next morning we noticed the rocking chair was moved slightly and neither one of us touched it during our stay.
We also did the Spirits of Liberty Tour and it was fun and informative. Overall the stay was wonderful, the staff were friendly knowledgeable about the history and food was amazing. We will definitely be back!
