The Cheesemaker’s Inn Bed & Breakfast

More five stars are in order for this wonderful B&B in Pella, IA. Our friends made arrangements for the four of us at Rob and Kim’s for a weekend get together, because it was roughly halfway between our home in Minnesota and their’s in central MO. What a fortunate turn of events for the four of us. Turns out that Pella is a very nice place to spend some time and our mini vacation was made doubly enjoyable by the extraordinary hospitality offered at The Cheesemaker’s Inn.
Rob and Kim have mastered the art of accommodation. Every need is satisfied. The rooms are exceptionally clean, tidy and well decorated. They provided a small but pleasant sitting room off the upstairs bedrooms where we could brew coffee or tea, snack on cookies, and help ourselves to refrigerated soft drinks while chatting or reading the paper.
Breakfasts are something to look forward to at this inn. We have stayed at any number of B&B’s and have generally been served a good meal from the kitchen. But Kim’s skill in the kitchen is above par. Homemade bread? Yes. Garden herbs? Expect it. Fresh ingredients prepared and presented in a simple but elegant way? You bet.
And best of all, their guest service is unpretentious and welcoming. It’s as though you were neighbors from down the road or a relative from across town. Just a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Rob & Kim’s 4 room B&B made our quick Pella trilp wonderful. Exacting service. No little detail overlooked.
More like walking into one’s house than being on the road traveling!
The breakfast… the culinary highlight of our trip.
Kim’s granola in a word delicious. Homemade strawberry jam absolutely ethereal. Banket & Dutch baby (squeeze of lemon) not to be missed.
het ontbijt was erg lekker!
Only wish they were open for dinner!
If you are anywhere near… this B&B is worth a stop… beautiful lake nearby and Pella’s windmills bring back memories of The Nedtherlands. Who knew?
