“This is a cool and kitschy, with touches of funky-fun-classy boutque hotel, contained within an 1894 mansion! The very best thing about this property is definitely the owners! The next would be the historical nature of this mansion.As well as the way that they've decorated it! This hotel is in a great location for your hiking, climbing, historic sites, water activities in SouthWestern Illinois. This is a quiet town. There's not a lot there, which was one of the things that was appealing to me for this particular trip. A couple of restaurants and cool old-school bars, great river views and nearby historical sites. This hotel and town offer a quiet atmosphere that is conducive to wonderful conversations over wine or beer. Reading a book, listen to music, Hanging out with a spouse or partner and or friends, in an atmosphere that feels very historic. And in a location that's near many great places to explore (within 20-40 mins, in any direction. Possessing a lounge and restaurant in the facility, with the most friendly and accompanying, interesting, and knowledgeable hosts, is a great aspect of this (B&B like) hotel. One of our most memorable times spent on the entire weekend was Saturday night ( after returning from a whole day of hiking and adventures, showering and heading downstairs) ...where we ate a tantalizing meal, enjoyed some Scottish beer (that we cannot find anywhere else!), then some port, and spent a great amount of time chatting with the awesome owner's Beth & Tony. Beth told us all about the history and why they bought the property and some of the things they've done, along with some fun memories with their kids. We also discussed the folklore myths and even legends around the property, including the talk of some ghosts cool are always friendly to riendly guests (her stories are so intriguing &i nteresting, and we had a wonderful time chatting and laughing with her). Her husband Tony, was the expert on the beer, wine, and port selections! We really loved the pub and wine bistro that they created, along with his amazing selection of international and local beer and wine! The more we spoke with the owners, the more we realized we had a lot in common with them. And we're very grateful for the hospitality.And for the manner in which they opened up and shared so much about the property, the history and themselvesl, with us! The only unsolicited suggestion I would make, and this is due to how amazing the dinner was, was for them to offer a breakfast or brunch option. You do get a brown bag with yogurt, a muffin, or sweet roll, a microwave protein offering, fruit, and, other things. And it's actually a great thing for when you're taking off to go hiking and explore the area... we just all thought that with the food and cooking as good as it was for dinner. It would also enhance the whole experience if they did offer breakfast as well! I do wish to point out that this was clearly detailed. During the booking and all the information that was provided. This is not advertised as a bed and breakfast. It is a boutique hotel in an old Historic mansion ( there was nothing misleading about anything that they advertise at this hotel)!. Being a former (high-end/ high traffic environment) bartender, as well as a former sous chef. I do understand the amount of work that adding breakfast/ brunch takes. I also want to point out that them them not offering this, will never keep me from coming back to this great property with amazing hosts!”

“This place was amazing for such a small town. They are in the midst of remodeling with jew floors, bright clean painted wall with accent color wall and white wood trim. They provide a small refrigerator,microwave, even a toaster oven with two cook.burners on top with exhaust fan. Unfortunately they have no office due to the remodeling currently. The rooms need stocked with plates silverware and utensils. Great location to travel all the Shawnee Narional Forest area. Thank you for working with us at 9pm at night to get usually settled in with our pups as well.”
