    You made us feel like family

    September 13, 2012

    Merida and Russell, you welcomed my wife and I like family into your B&B. You made us feel very comfortable. My wife and I walked out of the Opera House and learned you both had walked downtown to make our dinner reservations because the restaurant did not answer their phone. That was impressive!! We enjoyed talking about Woodstock, where my wife was born. You made her Uncle feel welcome, when he came to visit us for breakfast. Thank you for making our stay very memorable.

    The Bundling Board it Top Notch!

    July 27, 2012

    We loved our stay at the Bundling Board. Merida, Russell and Bruno (the dog) were wonderful hosts and made our stay a relaxing one. The rooms were all beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the outdoor porch enjoying the tranquility and Merida's homemade chocolate chip-peanut butter cookies. Breakfast was also delicious! To add to the pleasrue was that the Bundling Board was just a short 2 block walk to the historic townsquare of Woodstock, where we discovered a variety of shops and restuarants. We really enjoyed our stay and we are looking forward to another visit. Dana Murphy

    Breakfast is GREAT at this bed-and-breakfast

    October 04, 2011

    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.
