Museum Hill Bed & Breakfast

Looking for a true “one of a kind” getaway destination? Visit St Jo Mo, where the Pony Express began, Jesse James ended, and the West officially became "Wild!" Park the vehicle and stroll through four National Historic Landmark downtown districts. Walk to Wyeth Tootle Mansion/Museum and within 2 miles visit 16 other unique museums like the Pony Express, Jesse James house and the Glore Psychiatric Museum. Savor a picnic lunch on the pristine "Lovers Lane" Parkway. Tour two miles of the original Lewis and Clark trail along the beautiful Missouri river. Make a “Night to Remember” at the Missouri Theatre performing arts events. Enjoy annual festivals such as “Trails West,” the biggest in the region. Overlook architectural “wonders” on the wraparound porch with a glass of wine. Only 35 minutes north of Kansas City. Featured once in "This Old House" and twice in "Missouri Life" Magazines and most recently on HGTV's "If Walls Could Talk". Now also AAA approved.
