Overall great stay. I highly recommend it for either a weekend getaway or traveling to Mason City to work for any extended length of time. I had the pleasure of staying for five nights. Cynthia and The Decker House were wonderful hosts.

Cynthia, the hostess, was most gracious and accommodating. The location was ideal for walking around the downtown area and for proximity to the Music Man Museum. Mason City is filled with little gems.

I'm so glad we chose to stay at the Decker House. Cynthia is just fantastic and the house itself is incredible and very comfortable. It's also really close to museums and places to eat, we walked around all day and didn't even think about getting in the car. Cynthia's breakfast was also really good, I've never had such wonderfully cooked potatoes. Highly recommend.

never saw the owner, and didn't feel welcomed at all. Sure didn't appreciate the cat jumping up on our table and my plate while eating breakfast.

We stayed in the Magnolia room. It is incredibly spacious and beautifully decorated. The king-sized bed was very comfortable, and breakfast was delicious.
