Phipps Inn Bed and Breakfast

My mother bought a gift certificate for two nights stay for our wedding present. We went to use it a year later and it had an expiration date on it that we had missed by 2 days. Even though they had two open rooms the nights we wanted to stay, they refused to accommodate us since the business had recently changed owners and the new owners told us to get lost. Not only would they not honor the certificate, they wouldn’t reimburse my mother for the cost. They got to keep all the money and no one received one single iota of service. We have told everyone we know NEVER to stay there and will continue to do so.

My husband and I just returned home after staying for three wonderful nights in Victoria’s room at the Phipps Inn. We have a strong appreciation of history and architecture and were delighted to stay in a home with such elegant dignity. It has been appropriately furnished by Mary Ellen and Rich and is perfect for a special vacation or just a quick getaway. Hudson and Stillwater both have great little shops to peruse, and strolling along the St. Croix River provides unsurpassed quietude. Mary Ellen is gracious and helpful and is an excellent chef! After sleeping very soundly in an extremely comfortable bed, it was fabulous to slip downstairs for coffee or tea and then (after showering or lingering in the hot tub) enjoy an amazing breakfast. We love to eat in the dining room when we stay at B&Bs and this was just perfect. We were served breakfast on china (with crystal and silver) and the linens and décor were appropriately chosen for autumn. We enjoyed the coziness of Victoria’s room, as well as the beautiful light from the huge windows. Next time we will try the Master Suite or Bridget’s Suite for a change of pace (and a bit more room, since these are actually double rooms). We visit family in the area and have been looking for a great place to stay in the region and we have FINALLY found the ideal spot! Thank you for a wonderful stay! We will be back again.

Had a wonderful two night stay to celebrate wedding anniversary. We stayed in the Master Suite. The bed was as comfy as a cloud. The bathroom is huge. The outdoor patio, that is connected to the room, was great for hot cocoa to watch the sunset and perfect for morning breakfast. What a great getaway!
