Aunt Kissy's Boutique B&B

Aunt Kissy's Boutique Bed and Breakfast located in Lewistown, Montana is newly remodeled with your comfort and relaxation in mind. Spacious suites with private baths, ornate gardens and comfort throughout submerge you in ultimate elegance and tranquility. This one-and-a-half-story stone home belonged to John and Maud Huntoon and it was built in 1916. The Huntoon's arrived in Lewistown in 1903 where John practiced law before becoming the judge of the Tenth Judicial District in 1922. The couple commissioned the Billings architectural firm of Link and Haire to design the home; the prominent firm had a branch office here in the 1910s. The house, thought to be the last stone residence built in Lewistown, reflects the community's outstanding tradition of stone construction, and Croatian stonemason John Plovanic's fine craftsmanship clearly enhanced the design. That design includes popular craftsman style elements with its low-pitched roof, gabled dormers, inset porch, and wide overhanging eaves. However, other architectural features reveal the owners' or architects' personal aesthetic. Particularly notable are the Islamic keyhole arches framing the sunroom windows and the curved bargeboards accenting the roofline.

The interior is originally finished with white enamel and included fernery and a billiards room. The residence still boasts a large sandstone fireplace in the living room, original mahogany doors, and, in the dining room, an electric call bell to summon the maid. The well designed home suited the Huntoon's, who lived here until after John's death in 1933. Maud apparently sought to preserve the tranquil surrounding. According to local sources, the city originally planned to build the junior high school on this block, but because of her objections, the 1922 building was ultimately located on Main Street several blocks away.

Aunt Kissy's Boutique Bed and Breakfast has four beautifully decorated suites each with its own charm. The Orchid Spa offers reflexology, massage, manicure, pedicure, and facials. The Huntoon Parlor holds a state-of-the-art surround sound theatre system with a 70-inch plasma screen television. The cuisine is fresh, organic and gourmet so plan on visiting us soon to experience what central Montana has to offer.
