Welcome to our very own White House. This charming little place was built in 1925 and has retained all of its original Craftsman style. It has 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. It also has what we lovingly refer to as the ¼ bathroom down stairs. There is a full sized and well stocked kitchen, with attached dining room and a comfortably furnished living room. There is a desk to one side for those who need to bring a little work along on the trip. There are 2 queen beds and 1 full bed. There are also two fold away mattresses. This place comfortably sleeps 8 people. All of the beds and bedding are new and of a high quality. This place is in the downtown Nauvoo district and is minutes away from all of the historical sites. You can walk to the temple and take it all in. It is a block from the Dollar General and Casey’s gas station.

    The property was perfect for our family of 6. We had an excellent stay, and the communication and service were fantastic. Late one evening, we were blow-drying my daughter's hair - one of the breakers tripped. There was an immediate response, and they fixed the problem quickly- ensuring our stay was comfortable. We loved the location and property- it all added to our excellent visit to Nauvoo.

    This is a beautiful house! We had a wonderful time staying here; it is close to historic Nauvoo and had enough of space for our family of 8. It was nice to have a well equipped kitchen to use during our stay.

    We had the privilege of staying in this adorable 1920s home during our vacation to Nauvoo. Marianna and Jenny reached out when we booked and made sure we felt comfortable communicating with them. They answered questions within 24 hours and gave clear and concise instructions. We arrived very late, but had no issues. The home is simply but comfortably furnished and decorated. Towels and bedding were good quality and clean with no stains or excessive wear. The mattresses varied in firmness but were comfortable with plenty of clean pillows. We were pleasantly surprised that the home had central AC, ceiling fans and additional AC units in two of the upstairs bedrooms. The 1.5 bathrooms are small, but we didn’t have any issues and we are large people. The home has been updated, but you can still see touches of history in many areas including a delightfully strange attic access that had my children enjoyed observing. We cooked all our meals at the cottage. The kitchen had everything needed for normal cooking. All the furniture was clean and comfortable and the television had a Roku device for streaming services. We had one issue, but Marianna and Jenny responded quickly and the situation corrected itself. We LOVED meeting our kind entertaining hosts in person. The cottage is walking distance to Dollar General and downtown shops, and around a mile from Historic Nauvoo. We had a wonderful stay in Nauvoo and coming to a clean comfortable home just added to the experience! Thank you!!

    Great location and had everything that we needed for our stay. Hosts instructions on check-in and checkout were very clear and easy to follow. We really appreciated the binder on the desk that contained information about the house and Nauvoo.

    This property was great! The house is old, but that was definitely part of its charm. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were comfortable. The A/C was nice and cool. The owners were great at responding and happy to help with anything we needed. If we ever get back to Nauvoo, we would definitely stay here again.

    It was a cute old house. It felt very time period appropriate. Hosts were great too! The only thing I wish it had was a porch swing or rocking chair on the front porch, so I could watch the fireflies in the evening.

    This property accommodated our family well and we really enjoyed the time in Nauvoo. The host was also very responsive and kind when we contacted her a couple of times. We appreciate the owner's efforts to make this old house comfortable. We know it's challenging but some simple improvements could be made: replacing or strengthening the dining table chairs, cleaning/replacing lenses on the fluorescent dining room lights (very dirty), replacing the dining room ceiling tiles (sagging and dirty), providing a suitable extension cord for the fan in the bedroom closet (no outlets were close enough to where we would want to place it). The online listing says there's a washer/dryer but there is no separate dryer. Due to lack of space, it's just a small combo unit that claims to be capable of doing both washing and drying, but it does a horrible job of drying clothes since it does not vent the hot, humid air. Plan on hanging the clothes to dry, which can take quite a while with the summer humidity, or taking them to the laundromat down the street.

    We enjoyed our stay in this charming home. It was close to everything we needed. It was comfortable, cool, and clean and had a well stocked kitchen. The full-sized fridge was a lifesaver in preserving our granddaughter’s wedding flowers. Would definitely stay here again!
