Reviews and Accolades

The Cottage and Main House’s interiors have been profiled several times in Chicago Magazine, the cover of Chicago Home and Garden, Midwest Living, Lake Magazine and more.

Here is a sampling of our recent guest comments:

“The unique layout of this property gave us the opportunity to come together, as a family (17 of us), in the main house and retreat for privacy in the 4 private, inn rooms…. Rodney and Linda Jo were our consummate hosts, answering questions, providing assistance… Our best Christmas house yet!” (VRBO, December 17, 2015)

“Charm, comfort, luxury and relaxing are some of the words I would use to describe the Rabbit Run Inn… The guest rooms provided plenty of room and luxury of a fine hotel. It gave other family members the opportunity to sleep in, retreat to read a book or catch a nap. Linda Jo and Rodney were so gracious and accommodating. We appreciated their going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.” (VRBO, November 15, 2015)

“We stayed the weekend at rabbit run in & it was quite possibly the best place Iv stayed overnight anywhere. The rooms and the house were spotlessly cleaned, the rooms were beautifully updated, the grounds were maintained and beautiful. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. I would recommend it to everyone looking for a place to stay. (Also, the beds were the most comfortable night sleep I have ever had in my life!).” (reviewed on Facebook, September 13, 2016)
