I only had one night to stay and I am so glad I choose this B&B. I choose it for the view it had of the Mississippi River. The hosts were wonderful for helpful with things to see and do in the area. It was a holiday weekend we all went out to breakfast together, great way to start a... More

The penthouse has an amazing view. It is a gorgeous and comfortable room. We loved the whirlpool tub. The house is beautiful. We felt welcome and relaxed in this house. Inez is a master baker--yummy cookies in our room and wonderful muffins for breakfast. The view from the dining room is amazing too, and the huge breakfast---fruit, muffins, quiche, bacon--was...

My husband and I stayed one night at Squirrel's Nest and enjoyed both the hospitality and our very gracious hosts. Great things: Beautiful view of the river out the window of the Penthouse Suite, which is a lovely and comfortable accommodation.

Cozy, luxurious suite. Inez made us feel like we were visiting favorite relatives and her breakfast was perfect. We look forward to visiting again.

The room was spacious with a queen bed, kitchenette, bathroom, couch, comyfy reading chair and a tv, but it was the hot tub that really... More

I reside in North Carolina but was raised in northern Iowa. On the way back from visiting there after the Fourth of July, I booked the last night of our long overdue honeymoon at the Squirrel's Nest. I decided I wanted to travel along the beautiful Mississippi River instead of the "boring interstates". So this B and B is emaculate!... More

My husband and I stayed at the Squirrel's nest recently while we were visiting our son who plays with the Burlington Bees. I had never stayed at a B&B before and was not sure I wanted to do so on this trip. I am so glad we did. We stayed in the Penthouse suite and were very comfortable and Inez... More
