One of the best parts of running a B&B is the Breakfast, from trying different recipes to meeting our guests and they in turn meeting each other.We are so glad you were comfortable and enjoyed the inn.

Beautiful gardens and building. Nice neighborhood for walking. Bed was uncomfortable. Seemed like we were in an almost empty house. Absolutely no interaction with any staff, even by phone. Communication only done by text. Not one person except a few guests in sight. It was…odd. Breakfast delivered to the room and then the person delivering almost ran from the door. Odd

Thank you for your input. I am sorry our Covid protocols left you feeling alone or odd, we also miss interaction with our guests. Happy to say we have recently started offering breakfast in the dining room to a limited number of guests at each seating as we continue to balance CDC guidelines and guests' enjoyment.

We enjoyed our stay very much. We needed a quiet get away and McConnell Inn was perfect. We stayed in the Master Suite which was the entire 3rd floor and the view was spectacular! Beautiful home with beautiful grounds. A wrap around porch with a hanging wooden bench swing for a cup of morning coffee or an evening glass of wine is divine. The morning breakfasts we're scrumptious! The hosts we're kind and very accommodating. Can't wait to return!

Wonderful lake breeze
The McConnell Inn was better than expected. Beautiful room, great breeze blowing in the windows, and Mary Jo and Scott provided excellent service. Our only minor issue was no TV in the room. A small antenna TV would have been great. Would stay here again and again.

Awesome find!
The house is really neat and very clean. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and arrived hot at our door each morning. Our hosts were very pleasant and gave us some ideas of places to go/things to see. The location is perfect for a quick walk to the lake or to the bars/restaurants. We parked on the street in front of the house and could see our car from the windows. It's a very safe, friendly neighborhood and we'll be coming back soon!

An Enjoyable Stay.
Our stay was really nice. Mary Jo bent over backwards to care for their guests during COVID-19. Just strange not being able to personally converse with them. The room was well kept and comfortable. The Inn itself was well kept and lovely. The only thing Hotels.com made it sound like TV was in every room. Only in the Master Suite. There are many things near by and walking distance too.

This is a lovely old home in beautiful Green Lake. It is fully up to code but without losing its charm. It faces the lake, and we were fortunate enough to have a lake-facing window. It is an easy walk to many cute shops and coffeehouses, and it is close to the ABA compound and Lawsonia golf course.

Fun weekend getaway.
The location was really good-just a short block away from the main street and right across from the lake. It was near a variety of restaurants and shops that were accessible by foot and some a just a short ride. The breakfast was delicious. The room was very charming and well appointed, and that includes reading lights, hooks, towels,etc.
