5 Best Day Trips from Chicago | Condé Nast Traveler
"Nestled between the trees, this quaint bed and breakfast offers a glimpse at simple, sophisticated small-town living. With boutique amenities, lovely gardens, and owner Mr. Sidwell's library of books and art collection, this stay encourages serenity at both the start and end of your day. Each morning, you’ll be greeted with a full, home-cooked breakfast and probably a look or two from Sidwell’s resident English Bulldog. She doesn’t have the run of the house, but she’s certainly one of the ladies of it. The bed and breakfast is blocks away from the Cedarhurst Center for the Arts, a few miles from Rend Lake, and other Mount Vernon sites including wineries." - Jessi Roti, Joseph Hernandez
