are given materials and worked with to help them understand the
GF dietary needs. The restaurants that become certified have
agreed to prepare meals that they believe to be gluten-free.
The majority of the restaurants are located in the northeast
section of the U.S., but there are some throughout the United
States. See their website for the list of restaurants and locations.

Howard House
www.howardhouselodge.com
I was recently up in Boothbay Harbor, Maine for a friend's wedding. I'd found information about one inn/restaurant there. The Thistle Inn that
could accomodate the gluten-free diet but they were already booked.
We arrived in town around 9:00 PM and tried one bed and breakfast but the prices were a bit steep. The innkeeper recommended Howard House as more affordable which it was and when we got to the front desk I asked about a gluten-free breakfast. Since it was such late notice at that hour of the night I wasn't looking for anything special - just wondering if they could make plain eggs fruit, etc. But the innkeeper there was lovely
and offered to make me gluten-free blueberry muffins from scratch (she had
ingredients handy since she's had other guests who needed gluten-free meals). The next morning I had muffins (she even gave me the rest of the batch to bring with me when I left) as well as fruit and yogurt and the delicious egg/cheese/tomato sauce breakfast entree which was served to everyone
and which she told me she made sure to prepare with ingredients that would allow me to enjoy it as well. Apparently she's also had guests who can'
t have dairy and can accomodate that as well.
I noticed this inn isn't listed on the gluten free inn site so I just wanted to make sure anyone traveling to BoothBay Harbor knows about Howard House--they also have many more rooms than most bed and breakfastsand again are more affordable=2C so when you factor that in to the extensive and tasty safe breakfast (which she prepared on incredibly short notice!) it's definitely a place to keep in mind."

Ann Bean Mansion

"My wife and I stayed at a wonderful bed and breakfast in Stillwater MN yesterday. Their website offered a gluten free breakfast and it was delicious.
It's now 12 hours later and I can verify by my stomach that the breakfast
was
indeed gluten free. The B & B is called the Ann Bean Mansion. Check
their
site for pictures and information.
Their website is http://www.annbeanmansion.com/ and it's informative about
the unique rooms, history etc. The mansion was built by an early lumber tycoon for his family and has been meticulously maintained. The owner is
very
helpful. My wife loved the large room, massive parlor and dining room. Fireplace,
heated bathroom floor, antique furnature, king bed and on and on." Jerry P,

Woodlock Pines Resort
"Just wanted to relate our amazing gluten free experience at Woodloch Pines resort
in Hawley, PA in the Poconos. First of all, the resort is one of the best places
you can go with your family. Tons of activities and very family oriented. Secondly,
they had GF pancakes, french toast, pasta, and gravies for me. I ate like a king!
Kudos to Woodloch Pines for taking the step of having a year round GF menu. This
is the first resort I have seen like it. Make sure to meet with the dinning room
manager at the beginning of your stay. Also, make sure your waiter/waitress is
on the ball. Derek Smith to Listserv, 7/07

The owners of the lodge have celiac family members, and were able to accomodate my 12 year old daughter for breakfast and dinner. It was a treat for me not to have to worry about feeding her, and she loved being able to order off the menu.
The cabins are cozy and clean, and the staff is extremely friendly. We have no association with the lodge, just thoroughly enjoyed our stay." Julie to Listserv, 7/08
