There is no law that says a bed-and-breakfast must be in a period house. This one actually occupies two recently built townhouses in the heart of the Montrose, and it exists because the original project fell through when Enron tanked. It's great for those who like modern architecture (exposed beams, airy spaces). It's also good for those who like baked goods and an honor bar. Rooms vary but are grouped in three categories: "mod," which is on the ground floor (with the bathroom up a flight of stairs), standard (one of which comes with a Jacuzzi), and top floor, which are much larger than the others and have the use of a large porch. The owners, Lisa and Rodney Collins, live on the premises, are gracious hosts, and keep lots of information on things to do in town. All of these factors make this place a great alternative to staying in a hotel.
