Sharon & Lou are just outstanding "regular" folks who take you into their house like you're part of their family. Norma and I were extremely relaxed in their B & B because of their generous hospitality and friendliness, which we very much appreciate. Everything that B & B should be, the Higgins House is !!! It is charming, comfortable and... More

I travelled to the Daytona area for business and selected the Higgins House because I prefer locally-owned B & Bs over large, chain hotels. I am a seasoned traveller and can honestly say this is the best B & B I have ever visited. The inn was delighful! Even though it is a historic house, I found it to be... More

Sanford's been in the news lately, all the time. We had booked a room in Higgins House late in Feb for Mar. 31, so at that time it was just a lovely central Florida town. Believe me, it still is. All the hype is just that -- hype. The Higgins House faces a park several blocks from the center of... More

I was greeted by owners upon arrival. My dog Baylee and I were welcomed and shown to our room. We were oriented to the backyard area for Baylee as well. I had a dog training clinic I was traveling for, and so happy to find a nice, comfortable accommodation for me and my dog. Thank you Higgins House!

Was recently in Sanford for their "Love your Shorts" Film festival and stayed at the Higgins House B&B. What a treat. Lou and Sharon are wonderful hosts. Spent part of one day just sitting on the front porch reading. Don't miss the homemade raisin bread french toast for breakfast.

We enjoyed our stay here very much. The wicker room was fantastic and so was the food. The owner/hosts are wonderful, friendly people.

We stopped for a night on our way to Autotrain which is 5 minutes away. Very comfortable & convenient. Lou & Sharon are perfect hosts. Breakfast was terrific. Relaxed on the front porch & watched life go by. Sanford is an interesting town with a good German restaurant, the Willow Tree.

We stayed here to be within walking distance for an event in historic downtown Sanford. The hosts were wonderful, very welcoming and gracious. We enjoyed delicious homemade treats and wine in the afternoon and a fabulous breakfast in the morning. We stayed in the Cedar Room, which was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone... More
