On iconic 2nd Avenue of this charming Norwegian town, you’ll find The Bespoke Inn. The 1903 Victorian exudes elegance; you’ll find eye-catching details & cozy comforts everywhere you look. An exquisite brick exterior & black trim welcome you. Inside, bold colors & plush furnishings greet your senses. The double-sided electric fireplace & cozy blankets for all will soothe in every season. Each bedroom has presence all the way to the incredible 3rd floor with multiple beds & a striking 7' teepee.
The space
Every inch of this elegant 1903 Victorian has been completely remodeled with luxurious furnishings, thoughtful additions, and striking details.
From the front door, you'll be greeted by a beautiful grand staircase in a formal foyer. Venturing into the main floor is first the dining room, with a table to seat 8-10 comfortably.
Next, you'll enter the living room with comfortable seating and cozy throw blankets for each one of you next to the electric fireplace. Our 55" flatscreen TV is awaiting your streaming credentials for a relaxing evening! Scrabble, playing cards, and magazines are available to you; I'd love to hear your suggestions for great board games to add.
The primary king bedroom is off the living room, boasting the other side of the double-sided electric fireplace as well as a 43" flatscreen TV. Attached is a private en-suite bathroom with shower and an incredible electric towel warmer.
Moving on, you'll be greeted by stunning black cabinetry with a bar-height butcher block island and seating for 3. This kitchen is stocked with everything you need! This Keurig is no ordinary coffee maker, but rather the deluxe version with frother that will make lattes and cappuccinos as well! Since the home sleeps up to 16, a traditional drip coffee maker is available too. From a 6-bottle wine fridge, Ninja blender, and electric kettle, to the basic everyday things like a 4-slice toaster, a large Crock-Pot, and an electric griddle - this kitchen has it all. Want to bake some cookies? Everything you need is here. And those are just the highlights. Looking for another small appliance or gadget? I'll do my best to get one for you!
From the kitchen, you can access the south porch and large patio, venture up the rear stairs to the second floor, or continue through to the laundry room with access to the north patio and additional spacious full bathroom with shower followed by the two-car garage. Feel free to make use of our new 3-burner gas grill out on the south patio, but please store it in the garage when not in use.
Up the grand stairway in the front of the home, you'll find a stunning queen bedroom at the front of the home with a view of the tree-lined street, a queen suite with a large bay window and a special surprise inside, a sweet room with two twin beds, as well as a cozy full bathroom with shower.
The 2nd floor landing from the kitchen stairway provides access to the expansive 3rd floor where you'll find three full beds as well as one pair of twins for your younger travelers! It's here that you'll also find the striking 7' teepee lined with bright pillows and small table and chairs set to set the stage for young minds to wander! The children's library will continue to grow as I find more treasures to add.

Guest access
Guests are welcome to utilize the entire home and garage, but we do ask that you refrain from entering the basement -- especially since there's nothing fun to do down there!
Other things to note
The price shown is generated by the number of guests selected during the reservation process. Airbnb allows hosts to structure pricing in two different ways: the first is to list the home for a flat rate for guests numbering up to the maximum occupancy. The second is a structure with a flat rate up to a certain number of guests and an additional price per guest per night thereafter. The Inn is structured the second way (with a flat rate up to 6 guests and $30 extra per guest per night) since it is such a large home. Please get in touch with me if you have any questions about this pricing structure.
No pets, please; violations are subject to a minimum $500 fine. My cousin and her family are frequent guests at this home when they come to visit, and she is highly allergic to both dogs and cats. Even breeds labeled as hypoallergenic trigger her allergies. I cannot allow pets in this home. Thank you for understanding. However, if you're not able to locate pet boarding near you, we may be able to help! Get in touch with Deb at Canoe Ridge Kennels just north of Decorah, Iowa (26 minutes/21 miles south) where I know your furry friend will receive excellent care.
It is imperative that there is absolutely no smoking or vaping in the house or garage; violations are subject to a minimum $500 fine. My children are highly sensitive to these smells, and they often help me during cleaning and maintenance times.
