#303 Victorian Suite "A Preferred Partner of Rail Explorers"

This, the Victorian Suite, is one of our more luxurious suites in Historic Goeppinger Building. It is the perfect setting for honeymooners, anniversaries or just a special weekend retreat. The suite has a queen sized canopy bed made up with fine linens. Our first guest commented that the bed was the most comfortable bed she had ever slept on. The mattress is the kind that allows two people to sleep comfortably but when one sleeper moves during the night, the other isn’t supposed to feel the movement. Apparently it works!

A dressing room with a desk/make up table is next to a full bath with a sink, stool and a tub and shower combination. The shower has a waterfall head. Guests comment on our big white organic towels and mention that they are so fluffy.

The spacious kitchen has the original cabinets from 1935 and the early inlaid linoleum. It is fully equipped with a stove, refrigerator, dishes-cookware-utensils and a supply of coffee. There is a cute little table for two for romantic dinners.

Our building is old, circa 1915, and it is lovingly restored. However, if you prefer shiny and new, there are several motels in Boone with that type of accommodation.

Perfect location
We selected this suite primarily due to its location, and were very pleasantly surprised. The building is historic and no more than a 15-minute walk from almost everything we wanted to do, from all things related to the train museum to bars and restaurants and shopping. And it was no more than a 10-minute drive to all the things that were too far to walk. It’s a third-floor walk-up which didn’t seem like a big deal for us but might be for others, and had pretty much everything we needed. In addition, Dixie and Brock really went above and beyond to make our stay special.
