    Maison d'Memoire is a really unique place. The cottages are just adorable. It's a really interesting and charming place. And Lyn is the sweetest person you'll ever meet. She is such a great welcoming innkeeper. I also really enjoyed having breakfast delivered to my door in a basket. Really private and romantic. And great food!

    We stayed in the Autumn Cottage for our wedding night. I was the perfect place for us. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very clean. Our hostess Miss Lyn is absolutely wonderful. The breakfast was delicious. But the best part of our stay was sitting out on the porch in the rocking chairs sipping the lemonade provided and listening to the sounds of nature. It was just so relaxing I wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely be back.

    I surprised my wife with a quiet weekend getaway. We stayed at the Prairie Haven Cottage. It was very clean, comfortable, and well furnished. My wife thinks I am somewhat weird about cleanliness. I check the ceiling fans anytime we stay somewhere and wipe the blades clean when dust is visible. I did not need to clean these fans! I was amazed at how quiet the property is even though it is no more than five minutes from Interstate 12. Ms. Lyn's breakfast was wonderful. It was delivered on time and was hot. Chef Roy's restaurant, just around the corner, was a treat. The people we met in town at the shops were some of the most friendly we have encountered anywhere. We hope to return and want to stay at each home on the property. The money spent to stay at Maison D'Memoire was well worth it for the relaxing weekend.

    First time we go in winter. The weather was very cold. The electricity went out for about an hour; but it never dampened the ambiance of my birthday. The glassed in porch was a great spot to enjoy nature and the birds amist the rain and ice. Thank you so very much for providing a little bit of heaven.
