Story

A warm welcome awaits all who visit the historic Anchor Inn Bed and Breakfast in Syracuse, Indiana.

Anchor Inn Bed & Breakfast was voted one of the Top 15 B&B's with "Best Hospitality" and "Best Garden" by inn goers in Arrington's Bed & Breakfast Journal's Book of Lists..

This turn-of-the-century, three-story, yellow frame house was built in the American Four Square architectural style and adjoins an 18-hole, public golf course. Lake Wawasee, Indiana's largest natural lake, is just across the road from the B&B property.

Located in Northwest Indiana, 118 miles east of Chicago and 120 miles north of Indianapolis, Anchor Inn is centrally located between South Bend and Fort Wayne in the heart of Indiana's lake country and only 1 hour from the University of Notre Dame.

Originally built in 1905, during a period when Lake Wawasee and the neighboring Lake Syracuse area were a remote resort, the Anchor Inn opened as a bed and breakfast in July 1986. With its fine oak woodwork, claw-foot bath tub, open stairway, antique and period furnishings and high ceilings it is reminiscent of another era. Each guest room is individually decorated and has its own special atmosphere.

The large front porch, (with its wooden swing and several high back rocking chairs), faces the tree-lined drive, large front yard and a view of the neighboring golf course. A smaller porch adjoining one of the B&B rooms overlooks a large flower garden and pergola.

A full, complimentary breakfast is prepared by Jean and Bob each morning and served in the home's dining room. Guests will experience a welcome change from restaurant dining as they all sit and eat together at the same table. The menu changes from day to day, but you are promised a full and hearty meal each morning of your stay. (An attempt will be made to meet any special, health related diet request).
