Built in 1904, the Wenneson Historic Inn is located in Southeast Minnesota's beautiful "Bluff Country".  Owners and operators Barry and Pam Erickson have devoted over eleven years to the restoration and renovation of the old hotel while adding contemporary safety features, comforts and private baths.  The building is centrally heated/air conditioned and all rooms contain ceiling fans.  Each room is completely outfitted with antiques and period furnishings.  To maintain the Inn's ambiance, rooms do not contain televisions or radios.


Peterson is 14 miles East of Lanesboro and 4 miles West of Rushford on Minnesota Highway 16 (Bluff Country Scenic Byway).  All three towns are also connected by the Root River Trail; over 40 miles of paved trail which follows the old railroad line and connects to the Harmony-Preston Trail; an additional 20 miles of paved trail.  Bike, hike, rollerblade, cross country ski or snowmobile on the trail while the Root River offers canoeing, kayaking, tubing and fishing opportunities.  Golfers can enjoy a relaxing round at the Ferndale Country Club in nearby Rushford.  Free shuttle services are available for our guests to and from the Rushford Municipal Airport which is less than three miles away.  Advance notice required for this service.
