My husband planned this weekend escape for my short vacation. Mont Rest Inn has everything that I could ever ask for. It was elegant yet cozy and we instantly felt at home. My husband ordered fresh flowers, a box of handmade gourmet chocolates, and a bottle of chilled champagne upon our arrival. He scheduled a one hour massage which phenomenal.... More

We had a wonderful time...but had much higher expectations before arriving! By the time we left, we had completely forgotten about our initial disappointment! We had soo much fun at our murder mystery dinner! Namoi makes the night soo much fun - as well as her helpers! The beds were very comfortable and the food was delicious!! We had a... More

This was the perfect stay. I say that every time. The weather was gorgeous, our room was like a retro mansion, except for the jacuzzi and the switch on gas fireplace. Looking out the windows at the Mississippi at sunrise is a picture in my mind I never want to forget. Chris the host and the staff treat us with... More

For our 32nd anniversary,we decided to go to Mont Rest. From the moment of our arrival we were enthralled. The property is amazing, the food delicious,and the Murder Mystery was great fun. Also, the staff could not have been more helpful. While not inexpensive,totally worth the cost. More

This place is AMAZING! We only spent a night in the Boardwalk Suite, but we wish we could've stayed forever! This place is SO relaxing, and simply gorgeous in every way imaginable. We will definitely be returning for vacations and (more than likely) anniversaries and special occasions. The staff were the warmest of anyone we've ever met, without being intrusive... More
