Welcome to the Wren's Nest Bed & Breakfast - a 1912 vintage home with a Country Victorian Flair, where you will be offered a wonderful nights sleep in a small rural town.

A little history about our home. This house was built in 1912 by Vern Banta, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Banta, a young man of 21, who designed and built five homes and at that time promoted one of the largest building booms in Columbus Junction, Iowa.

The Wren's Nest sits next to The First Presbyterian Church, which is over one hundred years old.

The Wren's Nest offers two beautiful bedrooms with a shared bath. These lovely rooms are furnished with antiques from the owners families, Asmus and Humphreys.

The Wren's Nest is located in Columbus Junction, Iowa. Columbus Jct. was named in honor of Christopher Columbus. There are twenty-two towns in the United States with the the name of Columbus, and Iowa has two: Columbus Junction and Columbus City. Our town sits between two rivers, the Iowa River and the Cedar River. One of the lesser-known tourist attractions in our town is the swinging bridge. It is more colorfully known as Lovers Leap Bridge.

John and Gen cater to those who want the comforts of home when traveling. Comfortable beds, the homey atmosphere, and their selected antiques are sure to please. So come and see their home and be taken back in time (one can also enjoy the many birdhouses).
