Description:
Built originally on 1865, the Country Colonial Bed and Breakfast is in the "Heart of Amish Country" downtown Jamesport, Missouri. Members of the "Inspected and Approved" B&B's of the "Bed and Breakfast Inns of Missouri" for 15 years it has been fully restored and renovated, it offers guests, in Amish Country, a "Step Back in Time" as you enter a home of yester-year. Sit on the forty foot Veranda, with it's private access from the "Veranda Room, and sip a cool glass of Mint Tea, in the double swing, while watching the Amish horse and buggies, clip-clop buy.
In the evening enjoy a Sunset, Clydesdale Drawn Vis-a-Vis Carriage Ride though the Amish Country Side. You will pass the Amish School, the Mennonite School and Church, two Amish Dairy Farms, and two Amish Deer Farms, where you can often actually pet the deer. When you arrive back at the house, there is warm home-made pie and ice cream awaits for your desert.
The Parlor is done in rich reds, with roses, full of antiques and a Baby Grand Piano. You will also (maybe) find the secret compartment above the fireplace, and behind the Mirror that hides the TV, DVD/VCR and Dish Network controller. But you may have a bit more trouble finding the "Secret Passageway" that leads to the owners’ quarters.
There are about 500 Antique books in the library, which overlooks the patio and flower gardens. Such collections as a full set of Mark Twain (second edition), a complete Shakespeare, and lots of fun books like, "The Principals of Domestic Science", which will actually tell you how to operate a broom.
The Veranda Room, $95, boasts a Jenny Lind Canopy Bed, a 6 1/2 foot Copper Bath Tub, built in St Louis in 1865 and affords a delicious deep soaking tub for one (or two). Light the candles, and totally relax. Of course the Veranda always invites romantics to sit and watch the stars, while the exquisite stained glass Church windows across the street provide a backdrop for the horse drawn buggies going by.
The Rose Room, $85, has a Pre-Civil War Rope Feather Bed, a large Ceramic Tile shower in it's Private Bath. This Room is furnish in Antiques as are the other rooms but, has a schifferrobe for your clothes.
