The House is lovely- Edwardian, with high ceilings, and wonderful parquet floors. It’s two blocks away from the river and downtown. The bedroom was comfortable; the bathroom was huge and luxurious. The couple who own the house and run the B&B are extremely good at what they do - friendly, charming, and super-efficient. It was an elegant and enjoyable experience.

Beautifully restored bed and breakfast

The Katherine Holle house is absolutely beautiful. I love how there is so much of the original home lovingly restored. The room was extremely comfortable and I had the best night’s sleep ever. It is within easy walking distance to downtown and restaurants.

If going to Watertown, Wi, it’s your loss if you don’t choose this B&B instead of your usual hotel stay. Our room was AMAZING, owners terrific, bed sooo comfortable and you would be hard pressed to find a better homemade breakfast.❤️
