    Perfect Romantic Getaway

    TripAdvisor traveler rating: 5 of 5 stars

    My wife and I stayed here over Memorial Day weekend last year (I'm a little slow). We spent 3 wonderful nights in the Arts & Crafts room. The room was spacious, well-decorated, and had a whirlpool...

    Best Honeymoon I could have asked for!

    TripAdvisor traveler rating: 5 of 5 stars

    We decided to visit Door County for our Honeymoon. I did lots of research and found many places that seemed nice, but were a little too "frilly" for my taste. Luckily I came across the Black Walnut...

Two More B&B Myths to Dispel 02.10.2010
Time to dispel a B&B myth or two.  First, there’s this notion that innkeepers hover. Not true. They are there when you need them, but otherwise keep busy behind the scenes while respecting your privacy. Just like the best five-star hotels. Myth #2: You have to eat breakfast at a communal table. The answer in many cases is no.  Some [...]

Performing Arts Season Is Music To B&Bers Ears 02.10.2010
Seems some of our innkeepers believe in the sound of music to soothe the weary traveler.  There’s a Jazz Brunch at Fountain Chateau B&B in Hustler.  A regular sing-along to benefit local charities at the Audubon Inn in Mayville.  And on-site concerts at the Parsonage B&B in Madison and Tufts’ Mansion in Neillsville. In Green [...]

Winners of 2009 Wisconsin B&B Recipe Cook-off 01.11.2010
A comfortable bed is just half of the B&B promise.  The other half is food!  The end of the year brought the second annual Wisconsin B&B cook-off with innkeepers around the state competing for bragging rights.  This year’s featured ingredient was wild rice.  Did you know it’s a grain and tastes incredibly good in both [...]
