Guest Access:
24 hours prior to your arrival, you’ll receive instructions for a self check-in. You’ll enjoy exclusive access to your rooms, ensuring a private and comfortable stay. You will also have access to the shared public and outdoor spaces, such as the main outdoor deck, the reading room, the kitchen space, and more.

The Neighborhood:
Dating back to the 1800s, Peterson has evolved to accommodate modern adventures while keeping its deep history as a railroad settlement. The iconic Root River runs beside the town, offering many activities to start or end your day. The “driftless area” is incredibly quiet as the railroad is long gone. This flat area surrounded by steep hills, allows easy access to experience an array of activities at a relaxing pace.

Getting Around:
Getting around Peterson is convenient and easy, regardless of your method of transportation. While you can reach various destinations within Peterson on foot or bike using the trail system, traveling by car is a great option if you are interested in exploring other attractions in nearby towns like Rushford, Whalan, or Lanesboro in order to make the most of your stay here.
