Simply great.

The home is beautiful, the surroundings serene, and the hosts warm and accommodating (and great cooks!). We hiked, kayaked, and mountain biked, enjoyed delicious dinners and shopped a bit. We were sad to leave and would stay here again.

Spectacular Accommodations!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this gorgeous wood and stone home overlooking Twist Lake. Beautifully decorated with attention to so many details like piped in bird sounds from the outside. The gourmet breakfasts were fantastic. Living quarters were very private and quiet. We were so happy with this little piece of heaven!

Spectacular!

My husband and I have been coming up north to the Eagle River area for many years and typically stay in a cottage on a lake. We decided to try something new this year and stayed at Debbie and Alan’s bed and breakfast. The property was absolutely stunning and the location was great. Debbie and Alan were wonderful hosts providing great conversation, tips about local spots to visit and absolutely incredible breakfasts. We really loved our stay and hope to visit again!

Wonderful Retreat Experience

This bed and breakfast is a warm retreat that is very special. The hosts are a wonderful couple who make every effort to insure their guests are comfortable. We were greeted with delicious chocolate chip cookies and a coffee/tea bar was always available. The included breakfast was always delicious, The home itself is a wonderful design and the grounds add to the experience with a rock garden and water element.
