Hello! Brownville is right on the border of Iowa and I was wondering what this town was like. Is it safe? How is the B%26amp;B? Thanks!
Has anyone ever been to Brownville, Nebraska?
Browville is a tiny town (more like a village) literally on the banks of the Missouri River. I%26#39;m not familiar with the bed and breakfast except to know that it exists. We use the river access boat ramp there once in awhile to go fishing. There are also riverboat tours during some parts of the year and I believe there%26#39;s a museum there. It%26#39;s a quiet town and I would imagine safe. Here is a link to the town website that should explain the happenings and the attractions there.

I grew up near Brownsville %26amp; remember when many of the houses there were in disrepair. During the 1960s %26amp; %26#39;70s many of them were bought for a song at tax sales ($1 or a bit more). The people who bought them, repaired them %26amp; many of them are true showcases. I have read that they offer tours for special events/fund raisers, but I have not attended. The townspeople are a private lot for the most part. There is a grist mill in town were you used to be able to get freshly ground flour. It was quite interesting.
Down the road 1/2 hour is Nebraska City. There you can dine at the Lied Conference Center %26amp; enjoy the views. Nebraska City also offers great outlet shopping at the mall on the south end of town %26amp; the Pendleton Store located downtown. We ALWAYS stop there.
I%26#39;ve been to Brownville a few times on Memorial Day weekend as they have a big antiques sale/flea market there each year. Cute town on the banks of the river and a nice day trip during that event. There is a winery there now which is nice to stop into. I%26#39;ve never stayed there.
