A place that remembers you —
before you even arrive.
Schoolhouse B and B isn't just a place to sleep on your way through western Nebraska. It's a restored piece of local history where every room tells a story, every breakfast is made from scratch, and every guest leaves feeling like they visited an old friend.

Built for travelers.
Kept alive by hosts who care.
Hemingford sits right in the middle of nowhere — and that's exactly why it's somewhere worth stopping. Schoolhouse B and B occupies a building with roots going back decades, preserving the character of a bygone era while offering every comfort you'd want after a long drive through the Nebraska plains.
We don't do cookie-cutter hospitality. Each morning begins with a real breakfast — not a continental tray, but something cooked, poured, and served with the kind of warmth that makes you want to stay a little longer. Whether you're passing through on Route 20 or returning because this place feels like home, we're glad you're here.
Four rooms.
Four different stories.
Each space has its own personality — pick the one that speaks to you, or let us help you choose.
The Classroom
Our signature room — high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a queen bed dressed in crisp linens. The desk by the window is perfect for journaling or planning tomorrow's adventures.
- Queen Bed
- Private Bath
- Free Wi-Fi

The Reading Nook
A smaller, quieter room with a full bed and a proper armchair — ideal for the solo traveler or couple who values peace. Waking up to sunlight through old-growth trees is the highlight.
- Full Bed
- Private Bath
- Free Wi-Fi
- Breakfast Included
The Principal's Suite
Our largest room — a king bed, sitting area, and a bath that actually feels like a sanctuary. The crown molding and original fixtures make you feel like you've stepped into a different time.
- King Bed
- Sitting Area
- Private Bath
- Breakfast Included
The Sunroom
South-facing windows flood this room with morning light. Two twin beds make it perfect for friends or family, and the porch view over the front yard sets the tone for a great day ahead.
- Two Twin Beds
- Private Bath
- Free Wi-Fi
- Breakfast Included
More than a bed.
A reason to slow down.
The best road trips aren't about the miles — they're about the moments in between. At Schoolhouse B and B, we make sure those moments matter.
Breakfast That Wakes You Up
Not coffee. Not a granola bar. Eggs, bacon, fresh bread, and whatever's in season — served at your pace, not a schedule.
Local Knowledge, No Guidebook Needed
We know the best spots in Hemingford and the surrounding towns — where to grab a coffee, what to see, which back roads are worth the detour.
Real History Under Your Fingertips
This building has been here since before most of the towns along Route 20 existed. Touch the walls, look at the trim, and imagine the decades of stories behind them.
A Quiet Place to Recharge
No TV blaring, no crowded lobby, no rush. Just a comfortable room, a quiet neighborhood, and the kind of sleep you only get when you're truly off the grid.
Right where
the road takes you.
320 Wyoming Avenue sits in the center of Hemingford — a town so perfectly centered in western Nebraska that you're never more than a short drive from something worth seeing. The Nebraska National Forest, Lake McConaughy, and the Sandhills are all within easy reach.
What travelers
are saying.
"We stopped here on a road trip and ended up staying two nights. The breakfast alone is worth the detour — fresh eggs, homemade bread, and coffee that actually tastes good. Felt like visiting family."
"The Principal's Suite is gorgeous — you can feel the history in every detail. Perfect quiet night after driving all day. Woke up to the most amazing breakfast and directions to the best nearby spots. Will be back."
"Exactly what a bed and breakfast should be. Clean, charming, and the hosts made us feel completely welcome. The location on Route 20 made it an easy stop, but we're glad we didn't just pass through."
Let's make
it official.
