Our group of friends had a lovely weekend in McGregor! The lodging was comfortable and spacious. The beds were cozy, and those Bare blankets! The ice machine was an appreciated bonus. Thank you to our host for recommending places for food and drink - we loved the places we visited. The locals were inviting. The view was great, and it was fun to stay at a historic site! ##### Jennifer B. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert P. 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Worked well for our group... Four of us were in the PdC area for some quiet-road bike riding. Some of the small compromises needed to enjoy an historic lodging such as this were a bit lost on us, so the value equation was a bit off. The separate bedrooms were nice. Communication was excellent, and a small noise issue (from roof repair) was temporary. Train noise at night might bother others, but wasn't an issue for us. ##### Robert P.
