We loved our stay at Four Mounds. The house was fantastic, like stepping back in time. The entire house is decorated in arts and crafts style furnishings. The beds are very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. We especially enjoyed sitting outside, listening to birds, watching eagles, and looking at the river.

Everything was absolutely amazing and beautiful. The inn keeper was so communicative and made sure she gave us the history of the property while we ate our delicious breakfast. I wouldn’t have changed a thing and am beyond happy I chose Four Mounds over any mainstream hotel.

Hidden gem

Lovely historic bed and breakfast. It has a contactless check in. It is very quiet and private. Wonderful breakfast featuring mushrooms foraged on the property. There's a one lane driveway, so you need to be a little cautious.

Among B and Bs, the Four Mounds Inn beats them all hands down. As the former residences of an industrious family in Dubuque during the early 20th century, both the Main house (Grey house) and the son's Colonial-style home (White house) are living examples of ingenious architecture, style, grace and utility blended into structure and comfort that you can appreciate and enjoy. The endurance of the craftsmanship built into every room shows with every step you take on pristine 120+ year old hardwood floors. The property is part of the Dubuque park system and helps preserve the legacy with active youth education programs. The staff provides excellent hospitality services with clean rooms and amenities. The coffee and Breakfast were wonderful. The view and trails overlooking the Mississippi River are peaceful and the grounds is home to woods and woodland bird species including Wild Turkey that stroll through the grass to feed. We appreciated a historical narration from caretaker "Willow" who along with her mom Dix manage the BnB portion of the estate. We highly recommend the Four Mounds!

Great, though we’ll worn, venue.

Venue is lovely, though the property is a bit, let’s say, “we’ll worn.” Breakfast was excellent and the staff delightful.
