years prior to the Civil War. Its suites provide guests a memorable
visit to one of the most scenic parts of the United States with a
wonderful view of the Mississippi river in a luxurious historic
atmosphere. History Buffs and others enjoy these historic 1854
accommodations which are nestled beautifully beneath the bluffs of
the Upper Mississippi National Wildlife Refuge. It is located at
the marina in downtown McGregor and near wonderful antique
shopping, eating establishments and memorable scenic sites. Whether
traveling by boat, auto or motorcycle, you will find easy access to
this former steamboat and stagecoach ticket office which is one
mile from the highway #18 bridge that crosses the Mississippi River
