Travel + Leisure Magazine
Rest Your Head
In the June 2002 on-line issue, and the in-print magazine, they have this to say about our bed and breakfast; "Meadows Inn B&B, 900 Pine Meadows Lane, Rushford; 507/864-2378. Just outside town, the Meadows is a little far from the trail for cyclists but worth the extra mileage. Rooms have comfortable bed linens and floral wallpapers; two balconies overlook a stand of virgin pine".

Midwest Living Magazine
The Valley So Lovely
In the September/October 2004 issue, pages 113-120, you can read an article about the Root River Valley in southeastern Minnesota. The article is not yet on-line.
An excerpt; "Magelssen Bluff in Rushford offers a 440-foot valley view from above the town name, secured into the hillside letter by letter, Hollywood-style. It's an easy trip up in a car; a real workout astride a bike".
On-line, Midwest Living has this to say about the Root River Valley bike trail. "One of our favorite rides, the Root River Trail in southeastern Minnesota, sounds perfect for your family. This paved trail on an old railroad right-of-way is a reasonable length, easy to pedal and lots of fun for everybody. The trail meanders through the Root River Valley from Houston (50 miles southeast of Rochester) west 40 miles to Fountain. You'll pedal across creaky rail trestles, through limestone corridors and into quiet towns that haven't changed much in the last century."

Rochester Magazine
In the March 2006 issue of this magazine, they say: "If you can't make it to your French country house this summer, make do with a stay at this European-style inn, where every room comes with a view of Rushford's rolling hills and valleys. Comfortable beds appointed with fluffy pillows and comforters and multi-course, fresh-ingredient breakfasts make the long days of bird watching (in a "virtually mosquito-free setting!") and bike riding just melt away."

Tri-County Record
In the November 25, 2004 issue of our local newspaper, an article written by Sylvia Leitzen, Excutive Director of Historic Bluff Country, praise was given to Rushford. "There are miles of groomed snowmobile trails, canoeing and a nice nine-hole golf course". She goes on to say that "Rushford can boast of a very nice downtown with many shops, stores and restaurants. Between 10-2 you should try to stop in to the Center for Arts, an absolute gem of a gallery".
About our inn, Sylvia said that "the secret to Doug and Marie's success is their attention to detail and the fact that you never feel like a stranger".

KAAL-TV, Austin, MN
From the August 2004, Our Town television program, "the Meadows Inn Bed & Breakfast is absolutely a great place to come and relax".
