1915 Tudor Mansion on the Mississippi River
The River's Edge Bed & Breakfast Inn
The River's Edge Bed & Breakfast Inn was originally built as a private residence by E. Carroll Taber, a second- generation lumberman. The home was built in 1915, just two years after the completion of the great dam. There was a smaller house at this site, and the Taber family built their mansion over the foundation of that home built in the 1850's. The original foundation is still visible under the main floor of the mansion. Drive for miles along the scenicMississippi. Enjoy a relaxing visit at the River's Edge ....
