    The hosts were inviting and friendly and we quickly felt welcome and comfortable. The facility is spotless, and there is a real noticeable pride of ownership and interest in making the stay memorable. The food was outstanding and unique. We would stay again in a heartbeat and would give our positive recommendation to anyone on any of the rooms.

    Our stay at the Habberstad House was better than I had hoped for. We loved the room, the decorations and the light snow on Saturday morning gave us the most beautiful view ever. The hospitality, food and home were "perfect". Jim and Mary

    This historic home is fabulous. My mother-in-law and I came to Lanesboro for the Holiday Inn Tour, where you are able to tour 12 inns or B & B's in town over the course of two days. We were pleasantly surprised to see that we were staying at the nicest of them all! The innkeepers Dave and Nancy were so informative about local restaurants, happenings, and history. Even little Lena (the dog) was a pleasure to be around! We stayed in the Amish Suite, which has two beds (perfect for us) and was very relaxing. The location is very quiet, the grounds are beautiful, and the food amazing. I have only stayed at a 5 star hotel once in my lifetime, and I would actually prefer to return to Habberstad House. Thanks Dave and Nancy for a memorable weekend!

    We can't say enough about our delightful stay at the Habberstad House Bed and Breakfast and our first time in Lanesboro, MN ! We loved everything ~ the quaint and personable town AND our most pleasurable, relaxing stay at the Habberstad house- it's a Diamond-in the Rough !! Our innkeepers Nancy and Dave Huisenga couldn't have been more accommodating-how personable they were. The rooms were so unique, clean and inviting. Plus we were served the most delicious breakfasts you could ever ask for ! Thank you again Nancy and Dave- We will be back ! ~ Dave and Jennifer Oster (Woodbury, MN.)
