Perfect place Staying at the Decker House was a joy! Cynthia just took over ownership of the house in 2019 and is doing a wonderful job. The beds were comfy, breakfast was delicious, and within walking distance of many fun attractions. This was my first time staying and a bed and breakfast and did not know what to expect. Cynthia has set the bar very high for all other B&Bs to live up to. I highly recommend Decker House.

The Decker House is magical ! Usually when you see a house like this you are on a public tour, and you merely get to gawk into the rooms from the hallways, taking care to stay within the rope barriers and not touch anything. The Decker House is on the National Register of Historic Places, but unlike most such houses you actually get to stay there! It was restored by a private foundation in a way that no normal business owner could afford, so it is in unbelievably beautiful condition. The Decker House is like a time machine; after a few hours there I imagined being in another era. The B&B owner Sally is a wonderful hostess and a fantastic cook who prepares an elegant breakfast. There are few things I've experienced that I'd describe as other-worldly, but the Decker House is certainly one of them.

Little Gem It's rare on a business trip you experience a pleasant surprise such as this when you check in. So if visiting Mason City avoid the boring chain hotels and try this little beauty! And B is definitely for Breakfast! Superb start to the day, cheesy grits like you've never had before!

The place was a delight The stay was comfortable and the food was top notch. This is the best BnB we have stayed in by far. If you are site seeing in Mason City and want to be near other historic sites, this is the place to stay.

Decker house B & B If staying in Mason City, you might want to consider the Decker B & B, A 1908 restored stately home that is truly a pleasure to stay at. The owner, Sally is wonderful. She is there every morning and along with another assistant prepares a delicious breakfast. There is lots of seating and great for large groups. Evening events like wedding rehearsal dinners or other larger functions will find the Decker very accommodating. There is a very large room on the lower level with a handicap entrance and the 3rd level suite is the entire floor. Perfect for a honeymoon night. We were told that the Clinton's stayed in this room at one time. The basement level has a nicely stocked bar (the room is amazing) and it is on the honor system. Select your beverage, look at the price list and leave your money in the jar. The entire building has central air, smart TV';s in each room and everything is VERY clean. There are no closets but there is ample room in dressers and large hooks on the back of doors to hang clothes. If I was in the area again, I'd definitely return.
