We spent a weekend here and it was wonderful. The trains at night were challenging, but i'm a really light sleeper. My husband slept right through them. The food was great and the train cars really fun to stay in. I think the price range is a bit off here. We spent 325 for Saturday and Sunday nights. But it... More

Decided to have a break from the normal Thanksgiving routine; we ended up in New York Mills at the Whistle Stop Bed & Breakfast for 4 relaxing days. Each breakfast was a culinary delight and the table conversations were far from ordinary! Spent joyous times with friends and family. Jann and Lori are wonderful hosts! Thanksgiving meal lasted hours as... More

This is a wonderful place for a couple to get away from the word and enjoy a delightful time together. New York Mills is a very small town so do not go expecting to be entertained by it. There is one restaurant in town so you will have to drive about 10 miles to Perham for a variety of dining... More

The hospitality is like no other! Gracious and friendly! Breakfast experience is amazing. The salivating feast set before us each morning; even now makes my mouth water. We chose to eat at the main house and share our experiences with other guests. This is great social networking! New friends are made and kept. The comforts tempt us to extend our... More

The decor was perfect, the tub was wonderful for soaking, the bed was comfy, and the breakfast was so tasty. It also helped... More

We chose it based largely on their website and the few reviews previously posted on this site...and just because of the uniqueness factor of staying in a railcar. Although the town of New York Mills is not really a... More

My wife and I stayed in the Imperial car for our 1st anniversary. According to the guestbook, most folks were like us - enjoying a romantic anniversary weekend. The car is wonderfully done. It's certainly the longest room I ever stayed in! The BNSF main line is close by, and we got lots of exercise dashing for the observation platform... More

The Whistle Stop Bed and Breakfast is very unique. It is right next to the railroad where trains go by every 24 minutes. If you don’t like trains, don’t even consider it. But if you’d like to get a feeling of what train travel used to be like you might enjoy it. We stayed in the Palace Car for $125... More
