What is it about chilly weather that makes us want to curl up beside a fire with a cup of hot cocoa and our favorite person by our side? We don't know, exactly, but we're definitely all about it. There are all sorts of wonderful, super-romantic places to hide away scattered all over the state, and most of them are absolutely perfect for reconnecting with your most beloved. The one we're taking a look at right now, for example, is the very epitome of romance; this gorgeous, century-old home-turned-bed and breakfast quite literally specializes in romance. It's the perfect destination for a romantic winter getaway in North Dakota.

Minot is the 4th-largest city in North Dakota, and yet, by most states' standards, it's still a small town.

There's plenty to do around here, like the Roosevelt Park Zoo, the Scandinavian Heritage Park, and more. There are also lots of wonderful mom-and-pop local eateries to experience while you're here, too. It's the perfect town for a romantic getaway - and you'll need a place to stay.

That's where the Dakotah Rose Bed and Breakfast comes in.

Formally known as the Andrew Carr Sr. Home and built from 1903 to 1906, this stunningly beautiful example of Victorian architecture is as lavish and romantic on the inside as it is on the outside.

The Dakotah Rose specializes in romantic getaways; you can choose from a number of wonderful in-house packages to make your stay that much more fairy-tale magical.

For example, there's the wedding night package, which includes things with the room like chilled sparkling juice, fresh roses, chocolate-dipped strawberries, a dessert tray filled with brownies and truffles, breakfast served in the room... the list goes on. Best of all, it's an affordable addition to your trip at just $130. The packages wane in price (but not in quality) from there, down to a simplistic, a la carte menu of solo add-ons like breakfast in the room only for $15 or just the plate of chocolate-dipped strawberries for $30.

There are five unique rooms with five distinct atmospheres to choose from.

Take your pick from the Lavender Room, the Garden Room, or even the Master Suite.

The grounds are breathtaking, and during the winter, it becomes a wonderland.

Few things are quite as romantic as a one-on-one trip with your significant other to a beautiful, quiet old Victorian home surrounded by pristine white snow and bright blue skies. During the warmer months, the grounds come alive with vibrant green grasses, trees, and amazing wildflowers. Honestly, all four seasons at the Dakotah Rose are something special - we suppose you'll just have to keep coming back to experience them all.

If you're hoping to plan a romantic winter getaway in North Dakota, you've struck gold: the Dakotah Rose Bed and Breakfast is beyond perfect.
