Can't wait to visit again

Cynthia is an amazing chef and a beautiful soul. She was willing to work around my schedule since I was here for a work conference. I am already planning on a return trip for a getaway instead of work. Be sure to go and stay with my new best friend.

Nice get-away in Mason City, Iowa.

A very lovely Bed and Breakfast. We stayed in The Lily of The Valley room. It was a good room at the top of the stairs, perfect for a couple. The queen bed was very comfortable and provided a good night sleep. The bathroom was clean with a walk-in shower. House cats were very friendly and welcoming. Waking up to the smell of breakfast being prepared was divine and it tasted as good as the aroma. The residence is within walking distance of the lovely downtown and just around the corner from the Meredith Wilson (The Music Man) boyhood home. Would definitely book it again.
