Welcome to the Afton House Inn, a historic botique hotel and restaurant.

No two rooms are alike, each showcasing its own antique-inspired aesthetic while providing guests with the convenience of private bathrooms and in-room entertainment. Deluxe rooms feature whirlpool tubs and outdoor balconies overlooking the St. Croix River. St. Croix River Cruises depart from your balcony view. Treat yourself to an evening or weekend away. Whether you are planning a honeymoon night, a winter ski weekend, summer getaway or looking for a special gift certificate…The Historic Afton House Inn is worth remembering!
Enjoy the elegant setting of the Wheel Room, where intimate dinners by candlelight enliven the senses and take away your cares. Tableside cooking and exceptional service promise to make your evening perfect.

The Pennington Room offers a more private setting for weddings, rehearsal dinners or corporate/client entertaining. High standards are our trademark, and our famous Sunday Gourmet Brunch is no exception.
CURRENT’s menu is fresh, lively, and healthy…along with a few items for splurging! We strive to support independent, locally owned farms and businesses. Our culinary team has a passion for scratch cooking using 100% natural or free range products and we believe that meals prepared with the highest quality fresh, local + organic ingredients are the building blocks for a healthy + happy life. CURRENT cares about its community and footprint and gives back a portion of proceeds to others in need throughout our community and around the world.
