Stone Haus Bed & Breakfast

My friend and I had been staying elsewhere on our annual trips to Hermann but it was time for a change. As usual, TripAdvisor reviews were a reliable source of information in finding a new B&B. Larry and Linda were great hosts- good knowledge of the surrounding area, available for a pleasant conversation, helpful when help was needed. Breakfasts were delicious although if you're a light eater you may want to ask for half-portions, which we plan to do on our next visit. Offerings over 3 mornings included fresh fruit, a sausage casserole, French toast with custard filling, scrambled eggs, local sausage and biscuits with a nice low-sugar jam. The location is QUIET- a beautiful natural setting with a wide variety of plantings and two outdoor porches. It's on top of a hill, far enough away from town that there's no noise and little traffic. It's 3 miles to the Katy Trail head. There are two very comfortable lounge/living rooms, one where coffee is available starting at 7 AM. There's also a TV. Our room was large and comfortable- the Blue Room upstairs. It had a King size bed, TV, a microwave and a fridge (with complimentary soft drinks and a nice bottle of local wine). Wi-Fi was weak- it worked but I wouldn't recommend it for on-line gaming! This seems to be an issue all over Hermann- I had lots of dead spots on my cell phone, too. There are rooms on the main floor if climbing stairs is an issue. If you're bringing a bike they have a garage where it can be locked. On the way out, I jokingly told them they needed to do something about that hill leading to town- it's so steep I even walked my bike DOWN it! They said they'd work on that. :-) We already have reservations to return next year.

Wow, we just loved this place. My friend and I were biking the Katy Trail and we stayed here two nights. The owners are just super wonderful and very helpful with anything you need to know about Hermann. Breakfast was really awesome. Coming off the Katy Trail, they have a place to store bikes. There is also a hot tub which was super nice to help our bodies. Highly recommend for anyone that wants to stay in Hermann. My advice is to stay at least 2 nights since Hermann has a lot to offer. If we had more time, we would have stayed 3 nights instead of 2.
