The Hillcrest Inn and Carriage House
The Hillcrest Inn: journey to a 1908 four-acre, wooded estate that combines the nostalgic memories of yesteryear with the luxurious amenities today's bed and breakfast travelers find most appealing. Enter the property through the original fieldstone posts and follow the curving drive until the panoramic view unfolds before you. Built on the crest of a hill, this inn has one of the spectacular views in southeastern Wisconsin. Hillcrest is an Edwardian estate where you can enjoy the refurbished beauty of the original craftsmanship such as maple floor, mahogany beamed ceilings and leaded glass windows. Every room has a tasteful blend of furnishings, accents and antiques that make them distinctive. We offer a romantic and secluded setting, overlooking gently flowing rivers and distant hills. Stroll the walking-paths, experience the lovely flower gardens, or relax on one of the expansive porches to enjoy the breathtaking sunset. Free WiFi available.
