Pros:

Very clean rooms. The best and softest mattress I have ever slept on! We were on the lower level and someone was right there to show us where to park and easiest way to get to our room. Will definitely be back.

Only complaint in otherwise excellent property was a noise factor above our unit- just from people walking on the floor- very loud- maybe lack of insulation? shared this with owner- he was aware

Pros:

The location is peacefully located at the edge of the town and was an easy 1/2 mile walk for us to explore. Some rooms are accessible, ours required stairs. Rooms, Ice, amenities, and morning coffee are are accessible via a convenient 4 digit code texted to you morning of check-in.
Peaceful by river, nice patio and gracious yard. Beds comfortable.

Pros:

Our room was directly beneath the lobby, so we would ask for a different room, as it was quite noisy when people were walking across.
The owners were amazing - friendly and very helpful. The site was lovely with plenty of places to sit outside. We loved it.

Breakfast?
Pros:

The breakfast was only ONE muffin. No other places to get food in the area. We were going to be biking all morning. It wasn’t enough for us. It was advised as “breakfast included” so I didn’t bring lots of extra food. Very disappointing.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Green Gables Inn. The property was extremely clean and well appointed, which is always my top priority when traveling — and it exceeded my expectations.

Before check-in, we appreciated being able to access restrooms and filtered water since we biked the Root River Trail earlier in the day. The locked bike storage was a huge plus, providing peace of mind with secure, temperature-controlled space and plenty of outlets for charging e-bikes.

Overall, it was a comfortable and thoughtfully designed place to stay, and we would definitely return.

A couple of small recommendations that would make the experience even better:

Adding a top sheet over the bed blanket for sanitary reasons

Switching from individual packets of soap, shampoo, and conditioner to refillable bottles for convenience and sustainability

Highly recommend Green Gables Inn for anyone visiting Lanesboro!
