"The Landmark Bed & Breakfast was just lovely. An historic old home that has been lovingly restored with modern amenities. The staff is very helpful and kind. The morning gourmet breakfast is outstanding and plentiful. There are free snacks and campfire with S'more's. The inn is in walking distance to downtown and very close to Lake Otesaga. I highly recommend!"

The White House Inn

The White House Inn

8/10 Good
"Cute property and excellent breakfast. They even gave us a to go bag on our last day because we had to leave early. Our room in the carriage house was nice, but they need to replace the shower head with one that can be hand held, because the shower is so small that the water hits you in the neck. There is literally no possible way to get the water to hit anything lower-you have to soap up and then stand there for a while and hope the run off eventually rinses the lower 2/3 of your body! Also, we thought for the price that we would have daily housekeeping, but we did not. This was odd because there was a sign about where to hang your towel if you wanted to re-use it and also a tip envelope… The location is fabulous-we walked to HOF and downtown easily."
