Dining room & Corner Living room A full, served gourmet breakfast is a pure delight when the guests gather at 9:00 in this huge, elegant dining room. Dining on tables from the original house of 1885, the regal splendor is part of the fun of breakfasts. Stories of the old home, and the Cogdell family are often told be the hosts/owners after dining. Be prepared for a leisurely, fun breakfast of 2-3 courses!
