I wish I could give a rating of infinity!!!! Renee and Jim are absolutely wonderful people. We…read morereally were treated like family. We rented the cottage for a few months, on and off, and it was so comfortable and home-like. Super clean! Renee made sure we didn't want for anything, and she makes THE best pumpkin bread! They went out of their way to help with anything we needed. The property is beautiful and well kept and is close to anything you might need. The bed is amazingly comfortable with pillows galore. Ohhh and the jacuzzi tub!!!! It fits two people easily and is just heavenly. There's a skylight and plants which for me, was so relaxing. Looking to get married? Jim has you covered. (Found that out at the end) Do yourself a favor. Instead of staying at a large hotel, dealing with lobbies and other guests, stay in the cottage. PS. After having Renee's pumping bread, I wish we had opted for the breakfast!!

We got married on April 1, 2022. Because of COVID we had kept postponing our wedding. We decided to…read morehave a small wedding and this was a wonderful location for us.. The bed-and-breakfast is beautiful and Pastor James is a very nice man. He was able to book me in for a wedding with a two week notice. So it was wonderful that he had time for us!

I stayed here over the weekend. I don't even know where to begin. The place seems good because it's…read morecheap. It's only about $50 per night to stay here, and it's great as a last resort, since most hotels were totally full due to the Independence Day holiday. You also get a free homemade breakfast, and you can eat it outside on the large porch while watching the birds and cats. Examples of breakfast entrees served are a breakfast quiche, breakfast casserole, and french toast. The couple who owns the inn is friendly too, and they like to come over and chat while you're eating. Because of this, I added a star to the rating. Otherwise, I would not stay here. There is no internet access, free wi-fi, cell phone service, or even phone in the rooms. No amenities, such as shampoo, conditioner, razor, or soap, is provided. I think this is bad when you've been traveling on an airplane. You are provided access to a refrigerator (unlimited sodas and bottled water - though they ran out of water) and microwave. There really isn't housekeeping service. The trash cans are never emptied (really bad after you've been on a road trip), the bed is never made for you, sheets aren't changed during your stay, and towels are replaced every other day (it seems). The worst part of the stay though was the smell of hydrogen sulfide whenever you ran the water. Because of this, I won't stay here again. If someone takes a shower, the whole room smells like rotten eggs, and it's disgusting. The same applies to brushing your teeth. If you brushed your teeth and used the tap water instead of bottled water, you'd have this rancid taste in your mouth. Gross!

My wife and I chose the Cupola Inn for our visit to Mason City for a pyrotechnics convention. After…read morevery busy days, it was a great place to relax and just chill out and think. There is very limited access to our everyday technologies, but it is also great to be able to quietly think and read on the front porch. Sandy and I stayed here from 8/1/2018 through 8/11/2018 and loved every minute of it. Judy made a wonderful country breakfast every morning, and Dale pretty well stayed out of her way, while regaling us with History and stories of rural life gone by. It is a working farm, but the Mills take time to help us enjoy the hospitality. Also, ask Dale for a quick canoe trip, it absolutely makes the trip, and is is incredibly relaxing.

If you are planning a trip to Iowa Falls, Iowa, and desire a private, cozy and unique place to…read morestay, consider the Bed and Breakfast of Cabin Cove. It is situated on the Iowa River and is very close to all of the downtown amenities. It even has it's own dock on the river. Breakfast comes with every stay and the innkeeper is one of the most friendly you'll ever meet. If you stay in the summer or early fall, enjoy a 90 minute Iowa River Cruise and see limestone bluffs, beautiful park scenery and the Iowa Falls Swinging Bridge. Your captain will provide a historical narrative of the river, and there is no cost to you. This special ride is complimentary to all guests of the B&B of Cabin Cove.

Barbara and Larry were great! Barbara had a great sense of humor and I found her to be very…read morepersonable. All the rooms that we had access to were beautiful and they retained their quaintness from years gone by. Our room was upstairs and our stairway was off the kitchen. It was kind of steep but we managed, I'm not sure everyone would be able to though. We pretty much had the entire floor on that side of the house. There was a little kitchen up there with a microwave and sink, but no refrigerator. I'm sure if we had asked if we could use the refrigerator that was in the main kitchen we would have been granted the privilege. The beautiful dining room had a side table with all kinds of tea cups and saucers and teas. We made ourselves a cup of tea while we waited for our room to be ready. Our room was not overly big, but it worked for us. The walk in closet had a couple of sitting chairs and my husband I sat in there to have our coffee and a sweet roll (something we do every day and we weren't going to give up the routine just because we were on vacation). We still joke about how we had our coffee in the closet. The little bathroom that we had access to was not attached but since we had the entire floor it didn't matter. There was one other family there at the same time and we all had a very nice breakfast. Homemade waffles with fruit and whipped cream, and sausage. We also had juice and coffee. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. If you decide to stay here you won't regret it. Barbara and Larry were very eager to please, and they managed to do that very well.
