    It felt like we went home and were spoiled by the parents. We took a group down in July and had a great time. We will make this an annual event.

    your family here

    July 06, 2012

    Granny O'Neil"s is more than a Bed and Breakfast. After a few minutes, it's clear that your more than a guest, your family! Bill and Gigi are so hospitable, the food is so good, the rooms are so comfortable, you won't want to leave. The good news is you'll always be welcomed back when you return.

    No other place I'd rather stay

    August 17, 2011

    I made a quick run north from Cincinnati to visit an aunt and stayed at Granny O'Neil's for the second time. Some minor changes in decor, but not in service or food! If you've never stayed in a B & B, a stay here will be an eye-opener. No hotel or motel can compare with the experience. I was sorta, kinda raised in Savanna and it is so nice to be able to walk out the door, walk half a block, and be downtown and look at the storefronts, go down to the park, or watch the many trains go through. If you are a train fan, Savanna is on a main line of the Burlington Northern/Santa Fe. The owners are the nicest people on the planet and know Savanna well, so they can talk history or current goings-on with you. Bill is a former mayor! I'm going to try to drag my city-girl daughter with me the next time I visit so she can appreciate what a laid-back little community can do for the spirit. This is the place to stay in Savanna!

    This place was great! Bill and his friend Gigi really made us feel at home and were fantastic hosts. Chef Bill cooks a tremendous breakfast each morning as well! We will definitely be back!

    A Quiet Hide-a-way on the River

    June 27, 2011

    We were in Savanna for a family celebration and it was the all school reunion week-end. This little B&B was just what was needed to enjoy our time in this sleepy little river town while everyone else was carrying on in party style! Bill and Gretchen were two of the most accomodating people I have ever met and the food and service provided was the best we have ever experienced at any B&B in this hemisphere. You simply will not find a better place to stay anywhere in the midwest. Enjoy

    Bill and Gretchen made our stay in Savanna a marvelous one! The home is beautiful, very clean and comfortable. They are very accomodating to their guests. I would recommend it in a heartbeat.

    Exceptional in every way!

    May 06, 2011

    The inn itself is very nice, the rooms are quiet, comfortable, and private. Already Granny O'Neil's is an awesome place to stay, but there's more. You get to meet Bill, who is a gracious, charming, and funny gentleman. He's also a fabulous chef. He made an amazing breakfast, including the best cherry coffeecake on the planet. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll be sure to stay here.
