I booked though Expedia for my friend Joyce and when she got there they had no record of the booking even though the payment was taken out of her credit card. She never got a room because they were sold out

Bed....no Breakfast
The property was very clean, as was the room. The bed was comfortable. It was very quiet. As far as bed-and-breakfasts go, the amenities and accommodations were rather basic and underwhelming. Having stayed at many bed and breakfast, this one lacked the panache one comes to expect. Still, it was accommodating. My issue is that there was a bed, but no breakfast. One half of the equation was missing. Instead of a breakfast, there were pre-packaged items like Pop-Tarts and raisins, the type of Continental breakfast provided at cheap motels. The reason given for no breakfast being made available was the current pandemic. While I'm understanding of the pandemic, I have recently stayed at other bed and breakfasts in the area, dined at restaurants and had no problem being served the obligatory breakfast. It's fine if one chooses not to serve a breakfast during this current state, but they should be obligated to tell you in advance of booking or staying, as the premium you pay for your room per night is predicated on being served exquisite breakfast. We paid full price but only received half the bargain.

We are so sorry that not having a formal breakfast had such an affect on your stay today. We are very comitmitted to the health and safety of our customers during this pandemic. We are glad to see that you took full advantage of all the other beautiful things on our property. It looked like you were surely enjoying our sun porch. Thank you so much for staying with us

It was absolutely wonderful. Right when you walk in they show you around, offer snacks and water, and tell you to feel at home. We stayed in Gracie’s garden room and it was so clean and cozy. We will definitely be returning. It’s a great place for a weekend get away being RIGHT next to downtown wis dells.

We found heaven in Wisconsin!
Well for starters this was our first time trying a Bed & Breakfast and it was absolutely amazing. The hospitality made us feel like we were at home and with family. Our host Shane was an absolute buttercup of a sweetheart. From the second we arrived he naturally treated us with so much hospitality and with the utmost concern for our comfort. He checked with our schedule to make sure the bonfire was lit when we arrived back home. (did I just call it home lol) Snacks and beverages were always stocked. The beds and rooms were so comfy. There were so many little things I didn't mention but he was always accommodating our stay. He greeted us with a handshake and we left giving hugs. Definitely our go to spot when visiting the Dells or just to get away. Thanks again Shane for everything!

Quiet, clean and very accommodating. We stayed an extra night. I slept so well on the bed. The shower can be a little tricky as you have to straddle the whirlpool tub to get in. Otherwise a perfect getaway and close to Dells activities and restaurants.

Only thing we didn’t like was praying at breakfast. Felt forced into a religious situation
Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018

Ann, I very sorry you felt forced into prayer. Thank you for letting us know. Prayer is a normal part of our mealtime. You did not have to participate. We are Christians and never hid the fact, even on the sign we have a fish. I'm very sorry that you felt uncomfortable. We are a home not a motel, so traditions come along with you stay. Kind regards, Russ and Laurie Hanson

Excellent breakfast, uncomfortable bed
The breakfast was delicious. The proprietors were helpful. The bed was very uncomfortable. The B&B was very convenient to town, but next to a strip club and across from a sports complex. Neither the strip club nor the sports complex actively bothered me, but neither made for pretty scenery.
Response from Russ and Laurie on 26 Oct 2018
I am sorry, but there is not a thing we can do about the location of the neighboring businesses. Neither of those, though, can be viewed easily from the house or the cabins since we are tucked quite a distance back from both and surrounded by trees. I am sorry to hear about the bed being uncomfortable. I wish you would have shared that and we would have done our best to move you to another room if there was one available. We desire to make your stay a pleasant experience. We hope to see you again in the future. With kind regards, Russ and Laurie

What a great stay! Nancy and David and their friends were friendly and welcoming. They provided restaurant recommendations and were available for any questions we had. With such a great area, it wasn't hard to enjoy everything that was offered. Breakfast was plentiful and the room large and comfortable.

Arrive as a stranger...
Arrive as a stranger and leave as a friend. We can't remember spending three such completely relaxing days and nights where we were fed gourmet breakfasts from the expert hands of Nancy and reveling in the beautiful grounds. David, our co-host, tells good stories and serves a wonderful cup of coffee. We stayed in the main house and shared the quiet and beautiful home with the other guests. This is the fun of a bed and breakfast: we meet other travelers seeking the same comfort as we do and become friends before the second cup of coffee is served. Nancy and Dave live downstairs and are never in the way but are never very far away. The furnishings were in keeping with the home and some were simply elegant. There isn't anything to dislike about this well run B&B, from the kind and considerate owners to the furnishings to the beautiful woods to the elegant breakfasts.
