Circa 1892. Meticulously restored, this Queen Anne Victorian built in 1892 in Vinton, Iowa is a true Painted Lady with seven colors detailing its stunning exterior that boasts intricate chimneys, gingerbread trim, gables and turrets. Inside, seven fireplaces are accented with ornate wood and tiled mantles. Pocket doors, stained-glass windows, high ceilings and parquet floors highlight the furnishings and décor. Sip lemonade or iced tea on the front porch or in the parlor. Guest bedrooms in the Ellis House are named after the original family members. Stay in the Ellis Suite with a whirlpool tub. Start each day at the Lion & the Lamb Bed & Breakfast with a morning meal served on china. Ask about Murder Mystery Dinners and special packages.
