Montreal Lodgings

THE INN BED & BREAKFAST
(715) 561-5180
The Montreal Mining Company's original 1913 office has become a wonderfully warm, tastefully homey inn. Designed with skiers in mind, it's also well suited to visitors in other seasons, especially bicyclists. Except for Hwy. 77, the village of Montreal is free of traffic. Mountain bikers can have immediate access to the Pines and Mines mountain bike trail system. Advice is provided on bicycle and ski outings (cross-country and downhill) suited to guests' abilities and interests.

Doree Schumacher, innkeeper with her husband Dick, has created a look that plays off plain oak woodwork with autumn-toned quilts and simple crocheted window curtains done by Dick's mother. A hearty country breakfast is served at three round tables in the big gathering room. Sofas and a brick and cast iron heater make a comfortable sitting area. Doree loves to share the area's history. There's a TV room, a guest phone, and internet access. No TVs in guest rooms; many couples and many families love that.

Rooms are furnished with books, old prints, mining memorabilia, and family antiques of oak, pine, and maple. In each of 3 units, 2 bedrooms, each with a double bed, share a bath. The open loft unit is well suited to 2 families with their children; there are beds for 6 upstairs, with a partial wall and staircase connecting to 2 downstairs bedrooms. Rates for 2 are $85 year-round. Cost per extra person is $35. Many guests book winter weekends from year to year, but cancellations are always possible. Midweek and off-season availability is better.

The Schumachers discovered Montreal in the 1970s when their sons skied with the U.S. Ski Association at area ski hills. Dick was then the intramural sports director at the University of Wisconsin/Oshkosh.
