A Warm Welcome Awaits You At The Magic Door Bed & Breakfast What makes a place magical? Is it vintage charm? Cozy beds? A bottomless jar of fresh chocolate chip cookies? Endless amenities can certainly contribute to a special experience, but real magic is something internal and intangible. It's a feeling you get when you're in good place, and everything seems perfectly in sync. People create that magic, and they leave a bit behind when they go. This is why, after so many years, The Magic Door lives up to its name. And it is why, as the innkeeper, I'm so grateful for my guests: those who have stayed, those who return, and those who will come in the future. You are the magic.
