The Prairie Queen Bed & Breakfast

www.prairiequeen.com

The Prairie Queen is the premier bed and breakfast in Leavenworth, Kansas and takes its name from a Missouri River river boat that once docked at Leavenworth. The Prairie Queen was built in 1868 by one of Leavenworth's early industrialists, John Wilson, who was the president of Great Western Manufacturing.

Relax in one of the three elegant bedrooms, as you enjoy the warm personal hospitality of your hosts and indulge in a delicious home cooked breakfast. Unwind in a soothing hot tub or by a cozy fireplace. Take a stroll along the beautiful Missouri River, tour historic Fort Leavenworth, or even enjoy a workout at the Riverfront Community Center.
