    We had such a great time while we were in Oak Park! This B&B has a great romantic and peaceful environment! The owner was friendly, outgoing and informative! We loved our stay and are hoping that we can go again in the future!

    Cozy, beautiful, clean--James Stewart room (and the entire B&B) is highly recommended. 10 minute walk to downtown Oak Park. My wife and I had a great, relaxing afternoon/evening/morning there.

    The room was amazing. Loved the large attached bathroom & the little extra's left for guest use. The food was amazing & owner & employee were very friendly & fun to talk with. What a great & relaxing stay.

    We picked the Harvey House because it is a member of Select Registry and because of location. We wanted to have the B&B experience instead of a bustling downtown hotel. Additionally, we wanted to have the mobility of using our private auto when we wanted to. Did not care to use the "El" for late night returns. The location was awesome. Wish I had a few more days to explore the village. I think the success of accomodations can be partially judged it what does NOT occur. Our experience was fine with no complaints about little things (or big things). As for the second "B", the breakfasts were wonderful and bountiful! We had a great time at The Harvey House.
