If you long for a change of scenery from the same old hotel or motel scene for your next trip, why not check out a bed and breakfast in Starved Rock Country? We’ve located several, each with its own unique charm.

Looking for a longer stay? The Baldwin House lets you rent the entire historic 1880 home, fully furnished and equipped for your stay up to several weeks. “It offers total privacy because it’s only you and your travel mates,” says owner Toni Pettit. The two-bedroom home sleeps up to six. “It has french doors and a sunroom that everybody loves,” says Pettit. “Its three-sided windows overlook the City Park with beautiful views.” Baldwin House has maintained “Superhost” status from Airbnb for several years and hosts visitors worldwide. “It has a homey feel,” says Pettit. “People have referred to it as feeling like their grandma’s house. That, and the privacy factor, are what sets us apart. You don’t have to share it with people you don’t know. You can stay in your PJs all day and cook when you feel like it.”
