This is a unique and historic B&B along the Minnesota - Wisconsin border so we decided to give it a try after seeing a good state on Travelocity. While the place is old ( in fact the oldest B&B establishment in Minnesota by their claim), it has been updated and the room we stayed in was spacious, had a whirlpool and large bathroom. It was also very cold. The heat pump and electric fireplace took several hours to warm the room and the bathroom floor was an ice walk since the room had not been preheated. So the room should have been preheated for a reservation on a cold witness day. It is an older building so plenty of drafts. The worse part of this reservation happened before we arrived. We were called from the Afton Inn to confirm our reservation and were asked to give the 3 digit code on our credit card. Within a few hours our card was used to pay for a $240 bowling party a few miles away from Afton Inn and someone attempted to buy $700 dollars in computer equipment. Fortunately the credit card company spotted the computer charge as a potential fraud and shut down the card. The bowling party charge is in review currently. I notified the B&B of my suspicion that an employee had stole our credit card information but never received any confirmation from them they investigated the incident. So I would be wary of using a credit card at this establishment.

Love this place. The warmest welcome from reception the minute you step inside the door. Personally excite yes to our room by the inn keeper on the desk with a nice run down of the place. Dinner was awesome in the wine bar. There are a few options to eat there which I like as it is secluded. Wonderful place. We will be back

The staff were very friendly and helpful. However the property needs updating. It might have been great in 1980, but it looks like it hasn't had any work done since. Breakfast buffet was ok but nothing special.

An Inn That’s Seen Better Days :(
I hate to say this (really) because the staff were so nice and the location in the center of Afton is perfect (if you like quiet and idyllic). But the Afton House Inn is old and is showing the wear and tear. I certainly don’t need the latest and greatest but this Inn has definitely seen better days. Case in point is the massive jacuzzi tub that took up a significant portion of our room. It felt so 1980s when I’m sure the Inn was in its romantic heyday. That said, despite its age, the staff were so truly kind and helpful.
