Welcome to the Mendota Lake House, a beautiful 1911 arts and crafts B&B located on the lakeshore in downtown Madison. We are a short walk to the Capitol and a short hike to the University of Wisconsin campus (1 mile.) Rooms have great views of the lake and include a healthy continental breakfast. We are in a vibrant, walkable neighborhood with great restaurants nearby. At Mendota Lake House, we are not a fancy B&B. We are plain and simple and you are invited to make yourself feel at home. You will find a clean room, a comfy bed, a great location and a good price. From the spacious Oscar Wilde to the smaller, but comfortable Gore Vidal, we have a room for you.
