Green Gables Inn

What guests think

Across recent reviews, Green Gables Inn is praised for spotless, comfortable rooms, friendly hands-on owners, and a peaceful riverfront setting with well-kept gardens and seating areas that make for an easy, relaxing stay in Lanesboro.

Guests frequently highlight the secure bike shed with charging outlets. Several also note keyless access codes for rooms and common areas. However, recurring downsides include noise from thin walls or upstairs foot traffic and a very basic breakfast of coffee and muffins. Best for travelers prioritizing practicality and trail access, especially cyclists.

Its a lovely location with very comfortable and clean,super clean! rooms. Parking was difficult as I came back late and as the spaces aren't marked people parked poorly taking up multiple spaces. I spoke with the owner in the morning and he was very nice. Told him the people in the room next to me were very loud until after 1 in the morning and he recognized the problem immediately. It's not so much the hotels' fault as rude guests but he apologized many times and proposed a solution that he could make which was a very positive outcome. I am not a fan of contactless check in as a woman traveling alone I like to know someone knows who I am. Would like the option to check in in person (if that exists it wasn't made clear to me). Overall, yes I would absolutely stay here again. Nice owner, lovely setting, very comfortable and clean room.

The location is peacefully located at the edge of the town and was an easy 1/2 mile walk for us to explore. Some rooms are accessible, ours required stairs. Rooms, Ice, amenities, and morning coffee are are accessible via a convenient 4 digit code texted to you morning of check-in. Peaceful by river, nice patio and gracious yard. Beds comfortable.

We loved the beautiful setting on the river and our room had a perfect view. The grounds & gazebo were lovely. The courtyard was cozy and an additional space to gather/relax. We appreciated that the size of the complex being small with just 15 units. We were on the lower, "B", level and unfortunately the ceiling creaked when the residents walked on the floor above us. The walls and ceiling seemed thin. The air conditioner was noisy as well but gave us white noise and didn't interfere with our sleep. We would stay here again.

Green Gables was very nice and perfect for our needs. It’s close to the Root River bike trail and has protected bike storage which was important since there was a big storm that went through the night we were there. Breakfast of coffee and muffins was really all we needed. Gardens we’re well kept and gazebo is a great place to sit and read.

Our room was directly beneath the lobby, so we would ask for a different room, as it was quite noisy when people were walking across. The owners were amazing - friendly and very helpful. The site was lovely with plenty of places to sit outside. We loved it.

Our room was awesome. We had the luxury suite. The couch recliner seemed new and of good quality. The bed was good but the sheets were getting thin. Housekeeping over looked emptying the coffee maker, so it was starting to grow. Sometimes things get overloaded. This was my first time staying at a place that didn't man the "front desk" You were emailed the door code and checked yourself in. It was kind of strange but it worked. All 'n all, it was a good experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Green Gables Inn. The property was extremely clean and well appointed, which is always my top priority when traveling — and it exceeded my expectations. Before check-in, we appreciated being able to access restrooms and filtered water since we biked the Root River Trail earlier in the day. The locked bike storage was a huge plus, providing peace of mind with secure, temperature-controlled space and plenty of outlets for charging e-bikes. Overall, it was a comfortable and thoughtfully designed place to stay, and we would definitely return. A couple of small recommendations that would make the experience even better: Adding a top sheet over the bed blanket for sanitary reasons Switching from individual packets of soap, shampoo, and conditioner to refillable bottles for convenience and sustainability Highly recommend Green Gables Inn for anyone visiting Lanesboro!

Brochure said kitchen, fireplace and or whirlpool. None of these in the room. Continental breakfast? Only consisted of a muffin and coffee. Some of us don't drink or like coffee. I have stage 4 lung cancer, sugary items are not good for cancer patients. Room did not have any black out curtains, hard to sleep when daylight hits. Air conditioner buttons were broken, was stuck on 70 degrees. Property was nice looking, but not much to enjoy. Way overpriced for lack of amenities.
