We just got back from a 4 day/3 night road trip to Southern Illinois and this was our B&B for our celebration of our one year anniversary! Rhea and Tony(the owners) didn’t miss a thing! On their 125+ acre of property there are 2 rooms that rent(not attached to the house) for anywhere between $ 65 – 85 a night(I believe) and there is a log cabin suite for $ 130.00 per night which is what we choose. What an amazing place, so romantic, it is so beautiful! They have a private entrance to the log cabin that you walk through grape vines with beautiful flowers and hummingbirds all around. Our cabin had its own private Jacuzzi, fireplace, grill, king bed and wrap around deck. The also have a hot tub outside for all to use. She had the whole room stocked with everything you possibly needed during your stay important to remember the chocolates too! We were joined to the house by a breeze way but you never heard a sound except for the occasional bark from Daisy the new puppy! Rhea made us «Continental» breakfast every morning and it was out-of-this-world! The first day she made us strawberries and pancakes. The second day was an amazing egg soufflé with peaches and blueberries and the final morning we had cherries and waffles. I was hoping she would slip me some of the recipes! Their property has many walking trails and one lead to a cave that Daniel Boone etched his name in the wall. Now, did I climb up to see, heck no! The other paths lead to 3 ponds stocked with fish and one had a row boat you guys could get out on and fish, made my husband’s day! I highly recommend, if anyone is heading to Southern Illinois for outdoor fun or to hit the wine trail, consider this B&B, its the best I have ever stayed in and plan to go back!
