Eight of us took the bike trail to Red Wing and stayed here overnight. The place is spotless, the rooms are beautiful and very well appointed and furnished, the bed is perfect (and I'm picky, here), the grounds are fully and beautifully landscaped, Sioux was special, coffee plentiful at 7:30 am, and the breakfast was among the best I have...

I have stayed with Sioux in her historical estate for five years running now. And I plan to return for many years to come. Staying here is a serene blend of elegance and charm of yesteryear with the comfort and convenience of today. Sioux always accommodates our special requests and makes our stay as comfortable as possible. I can't imagine... More

We usually find B&Bs kinda creepy, but this was a fun stay and the history of the house and its tie-in to Red Wind Shoe Co. was fascinating. Loved the welcome snacks and sitting in the library. We were out of our comfort zone with the forced socialization that comes with breakfast, but we knew what we were getting into... More

My wife and I spent 3 days at the Golden Lantern Inn over the recent Memorial Day. Sioux is a wonderful host. You arrive to a warm greeting, a nice tour and a chance to get all your initial questions answered. So helpful. Breakfast was excellent. We did some biking and enjoyed coming home in the afternoon to a tray... More

Beautiful B&B with interesting history. Sioux, the owner, was very helpful in sleeping 3 to our room. Sioux had many helps for things to do in the Red Wing area. The breakfast was excellent. Would highly recommend this B&B.

My husband and I just stayed overnight at the Golden Latern Inn, but it was the most relaxing weekend. We stayed in JR's room, loved the king size bed and whirlpool. The room was very clean and private. We enjoyed having breakfast (which was amazing) in our room. Giving us a little more time to enjoy the room. We can't... More

My wife and I stayed at this wonderful B&B for our Anniversary. The room (Helen's Suite) was perfect with it's gas fired stove and sitting room, great for relaxing. The hostess was very accommodating and the option to take our breakfast in our room was something I can see many couples enjoying. Thanks to a recommendation from our hostess, we... More

This was our first experience with a B & B and LOVED the Golden Lantern Inn! We stayed in JR's suite and loved the privacy, décor, whirlpool, and view from the room. The house was wonderful to go thru and enjoy the great architecture designs and patterns of the rooms and learn about the history of the house and it's... More

Quiet, charming, wonderful food. Each room has its own lovely character. Apps and wine in the afternoon were a nice surprise. Breakfast was on time and very nice. Innkeeper is a sweet lady. Will go back again.

I stayed here with my husband for a nice romantic anniversary- Everything was perfect- We stayed in JR's room, which has a fabulous king size bed, and loved the whirlpool- the floors had just been refinished so that really added to the charm of the room. Breakfast was perfect-" ask about the broiled grapefruit or the "pear extraordinaire" . Had... More
