Wellness Center Alternative Healing Library

Ever since Judith and Lowell purchased The Colony Hospital Bed and Breakfast five years ago, Judith has wanted to continue the healing traditions of its history. Judith, an herbalist trained in the Dr. Christopher tradition, has amassed an extensive library of books, videos, newsletters, articles and information on alternative and more natural healing therapies. This library is now available free of charge to guests of the B&B.

We recommend booking the spacious Anders Bergland Suite and taking advantage of the dry hydromassage table and the soaking tub. The Anders Bergland Suite also has its own private porch (perfect for morning tea or watching the sunset over the distant rolling fields). Please let us know when making your reservation if you want to use the Healing Library. (Photocopying charges are extra.)

The Colony Hospital Bed and Breakfast and its owners provide access to a variety of printed, video and audio information and resources on nutrition and health, but are not licensed as health care practitioners or authorized to diagnose, treat or cure diseases or illnesses. Guests are urged to consult with their own health care providers before changing their diets, using herbs or supplements or altering their use of prescribed medications.

Special Guest Comments

"You made us feel at home the instant you greeted us at the door with a sweet smile and hearty handshake. We’ve never stayed at a Bed and Breakfast before on vacation. We always stayed at hotels. The stay here was much more personal and peaceful. Things couldn’t have been nicer!" Tim and Denise, Antioch, IL

“Dave and I enjoyed our stay at The Colony Hospital B&B. This is the first time we’ve stayed at a B&B and it was a wonderful experience. Our room, Dr. Vannice was so warm and cozy, especially with a thunderstorm going on. And the breakfast was absolutely fantastic – mmm scones – it was just right. You have done a great job here and we have felt very pampered. Thank you!” Dave and Anita, Des Moines, IA
