All around a great location with incredible views. We stayed in a king suite on the 30th floor with views of both the city and lake thanks to architect that designed the building as a triangle that overlooks the Chicago river.

I travel a lot and rarely leave reviews but wanted to take a minute to do so in this case. I highly recommend Glenn Meadow B&B. The price is reasonable, the home and location is very beautiful and peaceful, and the owner Tracey is a fantastic host who goes above and beyond. I accidentally left behind some expensive headphones and Tracey immediately shipped them back to me at no cost. On top of that she’s an excellent cook and breakfast was delicious. Can’t say enough good things about this place.

Elizabeth is a true gem of an employee! She’s a super chef, and a kind soul. She cared enough to prepare us kosher items. Her apple french toast and quiche were delicious. Our room was nice and the jacuzzi tub made for a great end to our days. Close to the beach and we used the resort bikes to go for a ride to the lighthouse. We were so impressed with Elizabeth’s hospitality that we talked our parents into coming and staying. We will be back. 10 out of 10 stars!! Treat yourself and enjoy the local wineries. Have Elizabeth prepare a charcuterie board for you and she’ll have it in the fridge in your room when you arrive, you won’t be sorry!
