The Scandinavian Inn is an environmentally-sensitive bed and breakfast where you can enjoy the simple pleasures of an inviting small Minnesota town nestled within the bluffs of the Root River.
This four-bedroom bed and breakfast is in the residential neighborhood of Lanesboro, Minnesota. It is a Victorian home built in 1893 by Ole Habberstad, a young entrepreneur and business man who had made the journey from the Norwegian community of Eidsvold in the mid-1800's.
The home features Southern pine woodwork, an eclectic mix of period furnishings and travel mementos, high ceilings, transom windows, spacious grounds, and an inviting front porch to relax with coffee or a glass of wine. Lanesboro is a most unusual small town tucked into a Root River valley, with professional live theater, a waterfall, a central park, and an active arts community. Lanesboro is ideally located on one of Minnesota's most popular and scenic bicycle trails, offering three different routes of travel. Amish neighbors produce goods such as furniture, quilts, and preserves, which are available for purchase in Lanesboro and nearby communities.

Amenities
The Scandinavian Inn focuses on a simple approach to comfort, and continually seeks new ways to operate in an environmentally-sensitive manner. Steps taken to date include those listed below:. Operate an energy-efficient geothermal heating/cooling system. Purchase organic produce at cooperatives and our Farmer's Market, using regionally-grown items when available. Serve free-range meats and eggs, locally raised as available. Provide cloth napkins at breakfast . Brew shade-grown, fair market coffees. Line-dry towels and linens outdoors when the weather permits. Apply no synthetic lawn chemicals. Mow using a non-motorized reel lawnmower and shovel snow by hand. Compost. Provide vegetable-based bath soaps. Use environmentally-friendly detergents and cleaning products. Do not over-use air conditioning. We recognize the need to provide comfort to our guests -- our bedrooms have air conditioning. But we like to give open windows, fans, and natural ventilation a chance first. Environmental sensitivity is an ever-evolving effort, and we welcome suggestions from our guests.
