“My husband and I stayed at the McLaren House and it was absolutely lovely!  The hospitality was amazing, her home is magnificent.  It felt like we were treated like royalty.  Breakfast was hot and ready for us which was delicious! (The blueberry muffins are to die for!) I definitely recommend staying here! ~ Alex and Destinee, Waldorf, MD


“My bridesmaids and I had an enchanting experience at the McLaren House the night before my wedding day. Kris, the gracious host, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and given a tour of the exquisite house. To our delight, Kris had prepared a selection of homemade cookies, which we enjoyed with a little wine that evening on the three-season porch. The rooms were stunning, and I felt entirely refreshed and well-rested before the big day!

The following morning, we were treated to a delicious brunch that set the perfect tone for the day ahead. The McLaren House also proved to be an ideal space for our bridal preparations. There was plenty of room, allowing us to get ready with ease and comfort. And to top it off, the house itself provided a breathtaking backdrop for capturing timeless wedding photographs.

Staying at the McLaren House made my wedding weekend an absolute fairytale. It added an enchanting touch to every moment, and I am forever grateful for the memories my bridesmaids and I could share in that space. Kris’s hospitality and the beauty of the house truly made it an unforgettable experience.” – Hannah, Chippewa Falls, WI


“My room at the B&B was comfortable & cozy. I loved that it was an adjustable king size bed. The room was decorated tastefully and blended to the period of the house. I loved the huge bathroom and shower. Kris was a wonderful hostess who tended to me & catered to my needs. What a great surprise that she was a chef and made special breakfasts that met my gluten free diet. I have never stayed anywhere that did that! I definitely recommend this B&B to everyone! Of course I would stay there again.” Sue, Milwaukee, WI
