She asked if I had any preferences and I mentioned low carb. Both mornings it was delicious and she even packed me one to go for my early flight. I would recommend this place if you enjoy historic houses, peace and quiet. It's good for single, couple, or a family.

The innkeeper was kind and welcoming, but also gave us space...breakfast was plentiful--eggs, sausage, toast, and coffee. They do take special dietary requests, and asked us about that when we arrived... Our room (we stayed in the main house) was decorated with antiques and wonderful old quilts, and faced the iron wagon bridge spanning the Des Moines River...we walked back and forth across this bridge several times. Next to the inn are several interesting shops with varying hours of operation...the general store was fun to browse through, and sells awesome homemade fudge. We did not have an in-room refrigerator, and didn't expect one but would recommend bringing a small cooler if wanting to keep drinks or food cold for more than a few hours (I did notice a mini fridge in the dining room)....also, most of the toiletries are provided upon request only. The inn has a colorful past which was fun to read about. If wanting a peaceful and interesting getaway I'd highly recommend staying here!

Strawberry farms is an incredible bed and breakfast. I have uploaded pictures I took while I was…read morethere, but I want yelp-ers to know that I saw several other rooms there, all of which included an attached bathroom and were larger than my room. I suppose those more luxurious rooms were more expensive than mine, but I loved my room. They all have closets and a tv. The bed and breakfast is clean and charming. It is a large house and has a very large living room, computer room, kitchen, dining room, a screened porch, and family room. If my count is correct, I believe they have five bedrooms, some of which are large an have multiple beds and a couple have a single bed. The b&b is filled with beautiful decor. The owners, Linda and Karl Reichert, are lovely people who welcomed my whole party with warmth and delicious food. They make amazing breakfasts. The day before, you are given a menu for a three course breakfast. You choose what you'd like for each course. The first course is a fresh fruit bowl, the second is a bread course, such as homemade scones or muffins, and the third is an entree, such as pancakes or egg concoctions. All of their food was homemade from scratch. The scones were the best I've ever had in my life. Linda told me she shares recipes and gave me her scone recipe. The yard is fantastic. They have a gazebo, apple and walnut trees, a flower garden, a vegetable garden, and fruit plants. The fresh fruit you eat in the morning and some ingredients for other dishes come from their own personal garden. There is plenty of room for children to play and pets to run. For entertainment, there are tvs in every room and in the family room, there is a dart board, they have board games, and Muscatine is only a ten minute drive. This bed and breakfast is everything a b&b should be. The home is wonderful, the yard is gorgeous, the food is delicious and the people are fantastic. I would recommend strawberry farms to anyone and everyone.

The hosts (Pat and Tim) were friendly, answered questions, and treated us wonderfully. The shrimp (grilled over wood) was amazing, as were the breakfasts (eggs fresh from the on site chickens!). We (wife and I) enjoyed the hiking (I'd rate it as moderate to challenging, some of the hills are quite steep). There is a long staircase (with 'rest stops') going to the bottom of the hill. Excellent location to relax (a small stream to cross) and soak in the surroundings. If you are a bird watcher, there are many to watch and hear. It's a bit 'back to nature' - as there are no toilets/baths in the cabins (the bath house and 'outhouse' were very clean and comfy.) They are just a very short walk from the cabins. We enjoyed the place (very cozy cabin with electric heat and a wonderful view, as well as the outdoors) , the hosts, and the 'recharge' time we had, so much that we booked another weekend in May. I'm sure it will be 'all new' with the foliage and blooms popping out by that time. If you enjoy the outdoors, want to 'get away from it all', relax and come experience this little 'Peace of Earth'. ~TH
