Bracket House B&B at Cornell

We’re glad you’re here! The Brackett House B&B is a historic inn associated with Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa. We’re located just steps away from campus (we counted—it’s 15 if you have big feet) on what we affectionately call the Hilltop. We’re also within easy walking distance of historic downtown Mount Vernon (five minutes at a fast clip) where you will find restaurants, shopping, a number of street festivals throughout the year, and a variety of places of worship. If you hop into your car you can easily reach several state parks, additional small towns to tour, and explore the larger cities of Cedar Rapids and Iowa City.
