We're committed to easy access for everyone 

The Old Powder House Inn is committed to making our website as accessible as possible to people with special needs, including those with visual, hearing, cognitive, and motor impairments. We have invested a large number of resources working towards improving the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide equal access to all of our users.

To help us make the The Old Powder House Inn website a positive place for everyone, we've been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user-friendly for everyone.

ADA Accessible Units

ADA:
This facility has limited accessible features available for disabled guests at the present time but those with disabilities are encouraged to call us directly to determine if certain accommodations can be made.

Old Powder House Inn is designated Historic under local law (36.405 Alterations: Historic Preservation.) Thus, completing all accessible alterations would destroy the historical significance of the property.

Wheelchair Accessibility: Due to the historic nature of the home, it is not economically feasible or possible to provide ramps where such ramps would extend out into the roadway, therefore accessibility by wheelchairs is not available.

As required by law for owner-occupied properties that have more than 5 units*, properties with 6 units or more should provide a unit that is reserved for customers with disabilities. The property should clearly identify these units and describe the accessible features in sufficient detail to reasonably permit individuals with disabilities to assess independently whether the given unit meets his or her accessibility needs. When selecting an ADA designated unit, if you do not have accessibility or other disability needs, please click cancel and select another unit unless it is the last unit available. If you do not meet the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements for this unit and it is not the last unit available, Old Powder House Bed and Breakfast reserves the right to change your reservation to another unit without your permission to accommodate customers with qualifying disabilities.

*According to federal law as found on https://www.ada.gov/taman3.html, places of lodging with 5 or less units and have the owner living on the property are exempt from having to have an ADA unit for those with disabilities. Religious organizations are exempt from title III requirements. Historical properties may also be exempt from certain aspects of title III requirements, but property owners need to verify based on local and federal requirements.

All other properties may be subject to title III requirements.
