I stayed here for five nights as part of a Road Scholar biking tour. This turned out to be a great choice for myself and the group. I had my own room with one bed. The room was clean, neat and pleasant. I had no concerns other than the walls seemed a little thin as I could hear the people... More

The Cottage House Inn is in a great location, close to the Root River Bike Path and Lanesboro's restaurants and shops. It is a no frills inn, no TV's in the rooms, no coffee pot, no shampoo, lotions etc. There is a TV in the sitting room, communal refrigerator, ice, microwave and coffee in the kitchen and a large game/...

Have stayed at Cottage House Inn 2 times now and enjoyed myself both times. As has been said, this hotel is right in the middle of Lanesboro and the bicycle trails are easily accesible. The rooms are very clean although somewhat basic. Personally I found no TV to be a plus rather than the negative expressed by one reviewer. There... More

You get a very basic, clean, inn type room at a reasonable price. No TV, and Internet in the rooms is iffy (Internet on the front porch and inside the common room). Breakfast is a seperate charge, which I've not tried because it starts late (8 am).

This inn is in the center of downtown Lanesboro and an easy walk to just about anywhere. We walked one block to rent bicycles to ride the Root River Trail. We walked one block the other direction to hop in the van for our Bluffscapes Amish Tour (great tour and highly recommended). Also, the inn is right across the street... More

My wife and I spent two nights at the Cottage House Inn in September 2011. We assumed we would be staying at a Bed and Breakfast. Instead, we were given a room in an adjacent building which was more like an economy class motel. The room was clean but no frills. Breakfast was available for an additional charge in the... More

Very clean rooms, good location and reasonalbe prices. Bike storage was handy and secure. Felt like we could come and go easily. When we had a question about area attractions, staff was helpful and made good recommendations. Nice outdoor porch area. If in the area, be sure to get to WHALAN - Aroma Pies. In Lanesboro, we enjoyed the Pedal... More

I stayed at the Cottage House Inn back in November, 2006. Tried to get in during the busy season in 2007, but it was full. I must say that the place I ended up staying was a FAR CRY worse than the Cottage House Inn. Nothing compared! No fresh smelling rooms, no great breakfast, no convenient access to shops, no... More

We have beeen staying at the Cottage House for the past 3 years. The hotel is immaculate, the staff is excellent. The hotel is located across the street from the brand new Commonweal Theater. Excellent restaurants are within walking distance. They have a secure building to keep your bikes in. I can't wait for next year

I have visited Lanesboro three times during the past 7 years, and have sampled several lodging choices. I must say that the Cottage House Inn is a hidden gem. You cannot beat the price - $45.00 for a Saturday night (off-peak season). With a price like that most experienced travellers have learned that you "get what you pay for." This... More
