Four Gables Bed & Breakfast


  • Inn Details

    This Queen Anne home was built in 1906 by Carl and Clara Munstock with some reclaimed lumber from other buildings on the farm. It is believed that a smaller house was lived in while this very large, impressive brick home was being built. The Munstocks made their money, at the time, from strawberries. The house and farm remained in the Munstock family until 1981 when the Jorgensens saw great potential in it and set out to painstakingly restore a very deteriorated gem. What was once a 1930s apartment in the upstairs is now the three bedrooms used for the bed and breakfast plus a library. Each bedroom is artfully decorated and furnished to make not only a romantic atmosphere, but also a homey and welcome ambiance for guests. Great pride is taken in details.

    My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying in the Roses and Ribbon room at the Four Gables B&B. The room was lovely and quiet and the bathroom had a large whirlpool. The separate sitting room on the second floor was warm and inviting, and it was nice to sit in the morning and enjoy our coffee there. Jerry and Nancy were wonderful hosts, and the breakfast that they prepared deserved a four star rating! Our morning conversations with Jerry were delightful. Overall, my husband and I highly recommend the Four Gables B&B, the prices are reasonable and this B&B offers a unique experience that a regular hotel can not offer.


    Very nice & friendly!

    We were first time B&B customers and had an amazing time. They truly make you feel like family from the moment you check in until the moment you check out. The service is amazing and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxation. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast for anyone that would like to just get away and relax. The Breakfast is unbelievable and the special turn down at night is a wonderful touch.
