Things to Do in the Rushford Area
While visiting the Meadows Inn, we hope that you will explore the area’s many attractions. We are here to assist and ensure that your visit will be relaxing and worry-free. We are happy to make reservations for golfing (Ferndale Country Club, is a beautiful nine-hole course just 3 miles from our Inn), bike and canoe rentals, dinner, the Commonweal Theatre Company, R and M Amish Tours, Michel's Amish Tours or special events that are happening while you are staying with us. If you really love birds and other wildlife, but just can't quite figure out how to attract or keep them, you need to see Bob at Avian Acres in Lanesboro. He can help you make the most out of your own bird watching activities.

Highway 16 National Scenic Byway U.S. Highway 16 was once part of a nationwide network of highways from New York to California, connecting large and small cities in the northern tier of the country from east to west. Today the Highway 16 National Scenic Byway is a long way from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
Along Highway 16, most towns presently have populations less than 1,000 and none have a population over 3,000. Rushford fits right in the middle with approximately 2,000 residents. Today, a trip down “16” will provide you with a great opportunity to see what this area has to offer. Enjoy homemade pie and a cup of coffee at a local cafe, stroll down local main streets exploring the shops, bike the Root River Trail, canoe or kayak the winding Root River. Or just relax listening to the sounds of the many songbirds, away from the noise and congestion of the city.
Towns along “16” have plenty of small shops with unique gifts from local craftsman. This area has a lot of history recorded at the museums located in almost every community. Most offer a self-guided walking tour so you can explore the area at your pace. Or you can take countryside tours, some of which include the Amish Colonies and other sites of historic interest. Whatever you chose to do, you will have a great time. Come see for yourself! Visit our Bed & Breakfast for your weekend getaway.
