"To be in a place and time when the niceties of life are not only observed but revered. 
A time when one cannot so much go back to a bygone era, but rather make the present a more enriching
 experience, never to be forgotten by the civilized soul."

WELCOME TO THE HATTIE GRACE!

Visit Hattie Grace's, a bed and breakfast in a quiet small-town atmosphere, and experience life as it was meant to be enjoyed!

One of the oldest homes in Odebolt, the Hattie Grace has been lovingly restored to its early 1900's Victorian beauty, and provides serene accommodations for its guests.  A charming front porch invites the weary traveler to relax in comfortable wicker furniture, and enjoy the peace and tranquility of small-town living.

On the first floor, guests can relax in the parlor,  watch cable television, browse in the library, or enjoy a romantic candlelight dinner in the spacious dining room.  

Four beautifully decorated bedrooms and a shared bath with a luxurious antique clawed tub are located on the second floor.  A bath with shower is located on the first floor.  Three rooms feature queen-size beds, each with a hand-crafted quilt in "garden trellis", "checkerboard" or "old maid's puzzle" design.  The remaining bedroom has twin beds.

WHO IS HATTIE GRACE?

The Hattie Grace Boarding house is named after two beloved women in Sherry's Gritten's life.

Hattie Alderson Ohlson, her maternal grandmother, was a farm woman who lived near Schaller, Iowa and raised ducks, chickens and geese.  A tiny woman, she always in a hurry, caring for her family, friends, and neighbors.  The coffee was always ready, and her homemade pies earned her a reputation of a fine hostess.

Sherry misses her mother-in-law Grace Gritten and says, "Everyone should be blessed with a mother-in-law like her.  Grace was a very special lady, and a joy to be around.  I never heard her speak an unkind word, or a critical remark."
