The Le Vélo Inn Family
We Restored a Building. Our Guests Help Restore Lives.
Our family poured years into bringing this 1871 building back to life. But we always believed the inn had to stand for more than beautiful rooms. Restoring walls is meaningful. Restoring hope in a person's life is lasting.
Giving is not a seasonal campaign here. It is a commitment attached to every stay and built into how this veteran-owned family business operates.
