See Your ImpactNot Corporate. Personal.
When you tell us what you are celebrating, we notice. Past guests marking a 15th anniversary found a personal card from Bill, Susanne, and our housekeeper, a decorated suite, and a little surprise waiting for them.
Susanne even asks whether you would prefer champagne or sparkling juice, because every guest deserves a celebration that fits them. Just let us know when you book.

Served Our Country. Now Serving You.
Le Vélo Inn is 100% veteran-owned. Owner Bill is a U.S. Navy veteran, and he and his wife Susanne run the inn as a family business with the same sense of duty, discipline, and care for others.
We proudly honor those who served with a veteran and military rate.
