From Gas Pumps to Guest Rooms: The Story of The Harris Inn

Nestled in the heart of the Harrison Hills of Wisconsin, The Harris Inn offers a unique lodging experience with a story as captivating as its surroundings. And yes, you got it—the name 'The Harris Inn' is a tribute to the magnificent Harrison Hills (Harris Inn = Harrison), a place that deeply connects with the hearts of our community. The pride in this region is palpable, and we're honored to be a part of it.

What stands today as a charming and inviting retreat was once a bustling gas station and convenience store that served the local community for years. However, time and circumstance eventually led to its closure, and the building sat abandoned for over a decade, slowly fading into a forgotten memory.

That's where we came in. We saw the potential in this neglected space, a diamond in the rough waiting to be rediscovered. With a vision of transforming it into something truly special, we embarked on a journey to breathe new life into an old gas station, preserving its history while creating a destination for travelers seeking comfort, character, and a connection to the Northwoods.

The Harris Inn is now a testament to the power of reinvention. Where gas pumps once stood, you'll now find inviting outdoor spaces perfect for relaxing, sitting by the fire pit and soaking in the natural beauty. The former convenience store has been reimagined as cozy guest rooms, each thoughtfully designed with modern amenities and rustic charm.

But The Harris Inn is more than just a place to stay; it's an experience. We're passionate about sharing the magic of the Northwoods with our guests, and we believe that experiencing the best of this region is an essential part of any stay at The Harris Inn.  We believe in fostering a sense of community, where travelers can connect with each other and with the spirit of the Northwoods.

Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a family adventure, girls or guys weekend, or just a solo retreat, The Harris Inn welcomes you with open arms. Come experience the unique blend of history, hospitality, and natural beauty that makes our inn a true hidden gem of the Northwoods.
