Description: For those looking for a truly historic Minnesota vacation or a getaway in Stillwater -- a city with a long and colorful history -- will want to indulge themselves in the accommodations offered by the William Sauntry Mansion, a Victorian inn known for its luxurious accommodations. Built in 1890 by lumber-baron William Sauntry, whose life was truly a rags-to-riches story, this 25-room home reflects his eccentricities and penchant for opulence.

Today, glowing wood and stained glass, elaborately decorated ceilings and period furnishings surround you throughout this gracious home nestled in the hills of historic Stillwater, Minnesota. You will feel you've taken a romantic step back in time, while being pampered by modern luxuries. The William Sauntry Mansion is Stillwater's only Bed and Breakfast listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The inn has been fully restored and guests experience modern comforts, combined with the nostalgia of Victorian splendor, for an unforgettable vacation experience - Minnesota lodging at it's finest.

Other Amenities: Enter through your own private courtyard, your special personal space for an afternoon glass of wine or to enjoy an intimate breakfast. Fireplace, double whirlpool tub set in marble, antique settee and chairs, and a beautiful four-poster queen bed enhance this spacious room. The bath includes a large marble stall shower as well. An intimate conclusion to your stay, our full gourmet Mansion breakfast is delivered to the Butler's Cottage Suite.

Once living quarters for the Sauntry's Irish maids, Servant's Quarters is a large and very private room in the rear of the house, decorated in plums and greens with a mahogany king bed. The fireplace can be viewed from throughout the room, including from the double whirlpool tub set in one corner.
