Our second great stay here! After coming for a winter ski weekend we couldn’t wait to come back and enjoy the river in warmer weather … and it didn’t disappoint. It was so peaceful listening to the river to fall asleep at night!

I absolutely loved this place and the staff. Everything exceeded our expectations! There was a restaurant on site that I was not expecting and made this over the top wonderful for our stay. Wonderful location, beautiful view, suburb food, atmosphere was delightful and wished we had stayed more than a night.

We had a lovely weekend at the Wayside Inn! Our room was clean and the location was perfect for a quick weekend to ski Cannon, and visit Reklis, and Schilling Beer Co. It was nice to have breakfast included and we took full advantage of the cozy fireplace and TV to watch some Olympics with fellow guests.
