With three distinctively appointed guest rooms, each with private bath, you'll enjoy a peaceful night's rest surrounded with fine antiques and vintage linens. In the morning awake to the aroma of home baked goods that complement a full, gourmet breakfast. Extra amenities that make you a pampered guest include fresh flowers in each room, evening refreshments, complementary bottled water and cold and hot beverages and 100% cotton, hand ironed bed linens. Located just 3 blocks from the charming Village Square (where the movie Groundhog Day was filmed), the Inn is walking distance to quaint shops, fine dining and the Metra train station. Live theater, antiques, golfing, hiking, and winter and summer activities are all available. The Inn’s northern Illinois location is just minutes away from Lake Geneva.

    I was in Woodstock for a business meeting and decided to treat myself to an overnight in town. Bundling Board Inn is located a short walk from the center of town (including the historic Opera House), and Merida and Russ are gracious hosts. They made breakfast for me an hour earlier than their usual time, to accommodate my schedule, and it was delicious: everything home-made and with a little twist, like pecan butter on the pancakes or honey-infused yoghurt on the strawberries. I'd recommend the place to anyone attending the summertime Woodstock Mozart Festival, or to anyone in Chicago who just wants to get away from it all.

    Just came back from a most wonderful two-night stay at the charmingly beautiful Bundling Board Inn. The rooms are lovingly decorated and are of the utmost cleanliness. The linens are crisp 'n fresh. Service? Why, you couldn't ask for better! The Innkeepers, Merida and Russell, make you feel totally at home and boy, oh, boy, can they ever cook up a hearty, home-made breakfast! Plus, they'll gladly tell you anything you'd like to know about this quaint little gem of a town located in McHenry county...WOODSTOCK!

    The Bundling Board Inn is a wonderful place to stay. The location is only several blocks from the Woodstock Square. The rooms are beautiful and homey. Breakfasts are gourmet quality and large. Late night snacks are always tasty. Merida and Russell are consummate hosts.
