Wonderful property with much character

Beautiful home in historic Richmond. We were impressed with the preservation of the house which had what appeared to be original woodwork, stained glass and ornate ceilings. The decorated nooks and crannies were a plus! We had a wonderful time catching up and playing games in a delightful atmosphere.

Historic place

Big old house with lots of comfortable rooms and updated bathrooms. Rooms charmingly decorated in the period. Well furnished kitchen enabled us to cook meals (although we struggled with the oven a bit). One member of our party said it reminded him of a funeral home, the the other 6 of us loved it

2024 Eclipse

It was a great place for our group to gather to watch the eclipse, and then visit with each other afterwards. Very historic house with potential to be even more grand if renovations continue. The gazebo is nice. The yard would be even better with a garden or flowering trees. We enjoyed exploring the house. So much room!

As a lover of architecture, it scratched the itch to stay in a historic mansion. Like much of Richmond, IL, this house was many decades past its prime, witnessed by the broken car parked out front and the 70's apartment complex that overlooks its backyard. The home has tons of space and some beautiful original features, but you have to balance them with the broken, mismatched thrift store furniture, the challenging lack of outlets/strangely placed switches and dusty old curtains some on broken rods. We appreciated the renovated bathrooms and good water pressure, but were cringing by the lack of mattress pads, colorful microfiber sheets and old mismatched towels. Sharpened knives and ice were also missing. For a stay that cost slightly more than a chain hotel, we were satisfied, and applaud owners who are trying to maintain a significant old home, but wouldn't be excited to return to the home in it's current condition because there just weren't enough inviting spaces despite all the square footage.

We LOVED this house!!! It was a perfect place to stay while preparing for the Taylor Swift concert! We had so much fun exploring this beautiful, historic home. Our group had plenty of space and it was so nice to have so many necessities provided for us! Communication was also so quick and kind! We didn’t have time to utilize any of the outdoor spaces but the gazebo looks so beautiful! I 1000% recommend this house!

We had three families from Missouri and Kentucky. It is an incredible old home. We used 5 of the bedrooms, cooked breakfasts on the beautiful Viking stove:) thankful there is a first floor bathroom:) The pictures posted do not do it justice:) so relaxing, and close to many restaurants! Easy access to I-70. Totally LOVED the gazebo:) would stay again!!
