What a fantastic B&B. Great innkeepers, wonderful breakfast, and tasty dessert. We stayed in the suite that includes the outdoor hottub and loved it. Can't wait to go back.

My husband and I stayed the night with friends of ours who had never been to a bed and breakfast before. We were hoping they would love staying at a bed and breakfast as much as we had in the past...and because of the Arbor Inn, they did! The service was great, the Sherman's were friendly and easy to talk too which always makes the experience that much better. The rooms were amazing, ours had the hot tub outside, and my husband and I had never experienced sitting outside in a hot tub and we loved it! We would definitely recommend this Bed and Breakfast and are hoping to be able to go back there some day soon!

The room was beautiful and cozy, the four-course breakfast in our room was luscious, the hosts were instantly like old friends, and perhaps best of all: Deb is a massage therapist! The couple's massage was the perfect ending to wonderful get-away! Thanks John and Deb - two states away isn't too far!

We had a wonderful two night stay at the Arbor Inn and could not have picked a better place to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. John and Deb are wonderful innkeepers and we really enjoyed visiting with them and Munch – and as others have mentioned in their reviews, it was like visiting with friends. We stayed in the Longworth room and it was warm and cozy. We loved the fireplace and the whirlpool tub, and really enjoyed their wonderful four course breakfast. We will definitely be back!

Walking from St. Paul MN to Prescott WI, 26 miles, I ended my trip at the Arbor Inn. Lovely people, everything as hoped - and the 60 min. massage and Raindrop therapy the next day were the perfect recovery aid after my long walk.

We have stayed at The Arbor Inn a number of times. It is our favorite mini vacation spot and each time has exceeded the past. The hospitality, rooms, massages, breakfast and ammenities are incredible. The owners, John and Deb, do everything they can to make your stay as perfect as possible. There is also the bonus of being within walking distance of beautiful and historic Prescott, WI. Even after just pulling out of the parking lot, we were already talking about the next time we could come back. Mickie and Justin Cottage Grove, MN

We were very pleased with this warm, cozy and clean Bed and Breakfast. Deb and John were so accommodating and really made our first experience staying in a B and B a wonderful one! We really enjoyed the DELICIOUS, three course breakfasts and the coffee and 'warm treats' delivered to our door an hour before breakfast each morning! Beautifully scented burning candles and relaxing music greeted us whenever we entered the inn. John prepared the fire pit for an evening fire for us and is currently working on a horse shoe pit as well. Our hosts were very welcoming and friendly yet allowed us our privacy as well. We certainly recommend this historic inn to others.

My wife and I went to The Arbor Inn to get a quick getaway after our wedding. John and Deb were amazing hosts, always there for us, but completely laid back to give us the peace we desired. The 3 course breakfast (and the food that came with our wake up tray) was hands down phenomenal. We even got to eat it on a romantic private roof deck connected to our room. We will definitely be coming back for more visits when we are in the area.

Motorcycling the back roads of Wisconsin, we chose The Arbor Inn for it's location near the Mississippi River which we love to travel along. The Arbor Inn was comfortable, quiet, cozy, and the 5 star breakfast was a great way to start the day. Deb and John went beyond the call of duty to insure a great stay. They even let us park our motorcycles in their private garage. Lovely home/Inn with a lot of privacy.

A lovely, relaxing get-away! We enjoyed breakfast on the private front rooftop deck, the jacuzzi, the massage, the wine and flowers, the quiet setting. John and Deb took great, personal, care of us. We were also provided suggestions of local flavor items we could include in our itinerary. We enjoyed it all. It was a slow-down time for us, and what a relaxing setting to do it in! We would recommend this to all! The experience exceeded our expectations!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Arbor Inn. We were looking for just a get-a-way for the two of us, away from the worries of constant every day worries and just sometime together with no pressure, and we found that here at the Arbor Inn, John and Deb were amazing and they have a beautiful home here at the Arbor INN, excellent food. I loved the breakfast, I'd eat it everyday of the week. :) Loved our room we stayed in the longworth room that had a walk out deck and a look over at the st croix river. It was so quiet and peaceful. We just absolutely loved it, and will return again when we can. This was the second bed and breakfast that we've ever stayed at, and I thought the arbor inn passed our first experience amazingly. And I thought the first time we stayed in one was nice. Thanks John and Deb for the wonderful stay, and yummy breakfast and tea we loved it!! Thanks, Kim and Matthew in MN

Our long weekend was too short becuase of the wonderful time we had at the Arbor Inn. As soon as we met Deb and John Sherman, we felt as though we were getting re-acquainted with old friends. They were a most friendly, hospitable and accommodating couple. The inn, in which we felt right at home, is historical without being stuffiy; charming without being cutesy. Our room was very clean, comfortable and well appointed with all the necessary ammenities. The food and evening wine tasting parties were absolutley wonderful, neither of which should be missed. Overall, we felt that our stay was well worth the cost and we intend to return, as soon as possible. By the way, my wife and I got a massage from Deb and highly recommend her skills as a licensed masseuse. Her massages are the icing on the cake of a wonderful stay at Arbor Inn.

My wife and I have traditionally spent an overnight for our anniversary for all 24 years of marriage. My wife's comment after staying here was that it was the first time she ever felt she would really like to come back again. Not that the other places we have stayed at were bad, just that we had an 'ideal' stay this time. Everything that we experienced was 'top shelf' including the service, the room, the food, and the massage. Once we arrived, we never left the building. It was so nice to have the ability to dine in for dinner. The chili and cornbread was perfect. There was never a sense of rushing to this or that. Just an evening and morning of time alone. The friendliness and caring of the innkeepers was unmatched in our experiences.

Cozy is the best word that descirbes this b & b. It was lovely in the winter with the fire place all roaring and the quaint dinning room with hot drinks (great teas) and wonderful desserts. Plus the great hot tub was perfect for Dec. weather. My favorite part about this Inn was the attention to detail and all the little extras. Because of the quaint cozyness the nearness of the rooms and the common area seemed pretty close and we never wanted to be to loud. Even in saying that though we never heard anyone. It was truely a very great stay and Deb and John respected that we wanted to be alone and served us very well.

We visited the Arbor Inn for my husband's 40th birthday. I wanted a quiet, relaxing hide-a-way where we could unwind and get in some much needed "alone time". The Arbor Inn did not dissappoint. From the wine tasting on Friday night to the great breakfasts it was exactly what we needed. The extra added bonus of having massage services right there in the Inn was a real treat. Deb and John are WONDERFUL hosts! So friendly and caring. They really took the time to be with their guests and make us feel at home. I highly recommend the Arbor Inn!

Some people travel to expensive spa's and resorts to rejuvenate. Some people get mystic and find an abbey or convent to retreat from it all. I go to bed and breakfast's. And John and Deb were outstanding in letting me "rest, relax and rejuvenate." I was treated like a queen- served and pampered. Oh, I forgot to mention...THE FOOD!! Delicious wild rice and chicken soup supper with popovers. Lovely oven baked omelet with potatoes, and home made cranberry and applesauce. Plus the desserts- Oo La La. Wine, tea, muffins, I could go on and on, but really, you should eat and get pampered for yourself.

I don't even know where to start. Let's see... I wanted to suprise my husband with a night away. He had been working ALOT lately and I just wanted to get out of town. It worked out perfectly how I found this bed and breakfasts website online, I called and Deb was awesome from the first HELLO on the phone. I was delighted to find out they had 1 room open - so I took it. I was slightly nervous even though I knew she seemed friendly on the phone, but never having gone to a B & B, I didn't know what to expect. But I decided to just go with it. It was about 1 1/2 hours from our home. Which in itself was very nice! But when we drove into Prescott, it was VERY easy to find (nice big sign telling you where to turn) and the parking was convienent to the B&B. We walked up to the door and immediatly we felt at home. It was quaint, well organized, homey and just plain welcoming. From the greeting of John and Deb until the moment we left, every detail was pre thought. It was like they were born to run a B & B. They are like a fine piece of machinery - they work so well together. You can tell they truly love what they do. And because they love what they do, it shows in their attention to detail. We had a bottle of champagne chilling in our mini fridge, they recommended a fantastic dinner (Confluence), and finished up our time with a 1 hour couples massage. My husband, who doesn't like to step outside the box (ie, prefers hotels) thought this was a fantastic get away. In fact, he can't wait to go back but this time for 2 - 3 nights! If you have any doubt if this is the place for you just call and talk with them, you'll know if it's a fit for you. They are truly personable owners who just love catering to you! :-)

My fiancee and I visited Prescott and the Sherman Family this past weekend. We were welcomed with open arms and shared a special weekend visiting with John and Deb. As you can see in previous reviews, their attention to detail is second to none. The rooms were immaculate, the food, fresh and homemade everyday. They spared no opportunity to "go the extra mile" to make our weekend unforgettable. It was very convenient to get a massage or foot cleanse to add even more of a personal touch by the Sherman pair. The area is beautiful this time of years to check out the changing of the leaves. We loved our stay!! Thank you so much John and Deb. Kind regards, Janet and Todd Colorado

Our son and wife surprised us with a night at The Arbor Inn for our 30th wedding anniversary. We had never been to a B&B and never really thought about going to one. We could not have been more pleasantly surprised with our stay. We stayed in the Silhouette Room which has it's own private hot tub. The Arbor Inn has been decorated beautifully with every little detail done to perfection. I believe the comfort and charm is not just the wonderful setting, beautiful decore and home cooking, but the genuine warmth and caring of the Innkeepers, John & Deb Sherman. They made us feel so at "home" it felt like we were at a friend's house and we felt sad to leave! We can not wait to be able to go back and visit with John, Deb and Munch!

We've stayed twice in the Silhouette room where a private hot tub is out in a partially covered porch, with a private entrance. Very intimate and cozy. The food was outstanding. Our only complaint for the whole stay was some of the baked goods, which were sometimes terrific but sometimes not to our taste. The owners are very pleasant, friendly, and accessible. They accommodated our early arrival and helped guide us to hotspots around town. In town is a deceptively wonderful restaurant for dinner/lunch called Muddy Waters - don't miss it! The rooms are beautifully appointed and very cozy. Request non-down pillows if you are allergic (which was also accommodated with some very comfy standard pillows). We will definitely be staying at The Arbor Inn again!

This was our first time back in a couple of years and we were indeed very pleased with what John and Deb have done. The Inn and rooms have the warmth and grace of a century ago. The stress of a busy and hectic day, week, month, year just melts away as you settle in. The food is absolutely wonderful so don't go looking for low cal, though they are very adept at takeing care of all dietary needs. We enjoy early coffee and later breakfast on the ivy covered side porch where we can totally relax--we don't even read the paper. We have stayed there before and will continue to make it a "get away from it all" stop. You will feel much better if you stay more than one night--trust me.

This is the second time we've stayed at The Arbor Inn. This time we stayed in the Silhouette Room with the hot tub. It was awesome sitting under the stars with a few snowflakes falling on us. If you go, book a massage. Deb is WONDERFUL! Both Deb and John were great hosts. The place is immaculate. They even had a fire going before our scrumptious breakfast so my husband and I could cozy up to the fire and read the newspaper. There's so much to do around Prescott and the Inn is very convenient to what we like to do. We went skiing at Afton Alps after breakfast and walked a couple blocks to town for dinner the night we got there. I can't wait to go back in the spring to see all the migrating birds since they are so close to the river. Thanks for making our anniversary so special Deb and John. We'll be back! P.S. When you go, make sure you leave room for the wonderful home baked goods they leave out to eat while you are there...mmm!
