My mother, two daughters and myself stayed at Heritage House in July of 2006. It was truly a memorable experience as there were three generations of us - avid Laura Ingalls Wilder fans just ready to experience the history of De Smet. Nothing could have made our trip better than staying in our beautiful suite with the "loft" room. We could see the Loftus store from our big windows with the lace curtains, and slept in sleigh beds with quilts. The period furniture and antique accents throughout the room were perfect. The girls' had nightcaps waiting for them on the pillows and new journals on the nightstand so they could record their experiences. Kim was up early making breakfast in the morning, then in the kitchen again packing us a picnic for lunch, and all the while available to give advise on siteseeing. When we go back we will not even consider staying anywhere else.
