Nice, warm and nostalgic.
Our stay at The Katherine Holle House was exactly what we needed for an overnight stay. It was about 5 minutes from the venue where we were performing. There was some outside remodeling going on that in no way hindered our stay. The owners are downright lovely people and the breakfast was delicious. The decor takes you back to when times were simple and people were neighborly. The location puts you in close proximity to major highways and interstates and seemed to be quiet when we were there. Restaurants in the area are limited but also have an atmosphere of “the good old days” when people were neighborly. All in all I would definitely recommend The Katherine Holle House if you are passing through Watertown WI.

Family affair
Owners were very friendly and helpful and live on site. The breakfast was outstanding. We had other family members staying there as well so we had the house pretty much to ourselves. It's a 3 story Victorian style house nicely decorated. The bedrooms and beds were vert conformable. I would most definitely stay there again.

Very nice. Easy to find. Couple running the B and B were very personable and accommodating . We had an appointment that would make us arrive late and they were very nice to allow us early check in. Bed was a little soft to my taste but overall a great stay. Breakfast was very good. Friend puppy Maggie. I would recommend this B and B to others.

AMAZING B&B experience!!! Don’t think twice about booking here. We stayed in the honeymoon suite and it was the best! Awesome comfy bed, super soft bedding and towels, truffles on the bedside table, and many other extras I’ve not seen elsewhere. The tub was AWESOME! Lights, jets, warming jets, etc. Everything was super clean and inviting. Pete and Keri are awesome hosts- warm and kind, very detail-oriented. The breakfast was top-notch and not to be missed. Yummy local coffees, fresh fruit, belgium waffles, fluffy eggs, bacon… it was a hit. We will definitely be back!

A gorgeous Victorian house that has been beautifully restored. The staircase is a work of art. Our room was very large and well appointed and the en-suite bath was spotless, with every toiletry you could want stocked. The bed was a cloud and we slept like stones. The hosts were engaged and warm and welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. They clearly enjoy people. The breakfast supplied was gourmet quality and may require a nap afterward. It does front a busy street so there was some traffic noise, but nothing a pair of ear plugs won't conquer. By 10pm it was dead quiet. If you find yourself in the area and are looking for a great place for a night or two, this home should be at the top of your list. We are thrilled with our experience.

We truly enjoyed our one night stay. The owners were super friendly and accommodating. when AC was not working they moved us to a different room which was way more of a room then then we ever expected. We would for sure plan to stay again when we go to visit our grandson in Lake Mills.

This was a wonderful discovery. The property is well designed and well located. The hosts were very friendly, and went out of their way to be helpful and make sure my stay was pleasant. All around it almost reminded me of a nice Korean guest house. The Sunday Belgian Waffle spread is absolutely worth taking the trip. If you like a well situated B&B, that is friendly, centrally located in Watertown, and full of charm, look no further.
