    My wife and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary with two nights at Simple Pleasures. Carol and Owen were wonderful hosts. They exhibited a love for and a knowledge of the area, which is helpful to first time visitors. The evening wine, morning breakfasts and location were perfect and lent to a relaxing time.

    The name of the inn became reality for us -- simple pleasures of home-baked cookies, chocolate on a turned down bed, fresh raspberries in the morning, etc., made our stay delightful!

    The atmosphere of our lodging and the towns we visited was so refreshing from the city. I was lost in the peacefulness and feeling of love and respect. I will surely return.

    Our group of friends from Northern Ireland and the U.S. met at O'Hare Airport in Chicago, and it was extremely stressful getting out of the airport and city. This was after a day of delays on both sides of the Atlantic and the usual hassles of international travel. We drove a few hours south to Simple Pleasures B&B, and it was getting quite late. We were impressed that the innkeeper waited up for us and saw that we were tucked into our beautiful rooms before going to her own bed. The elegance of this charming country B&B cannot be overstated. Each room has its own deluxe antique furnishings, features, and comforts. The quality of sleep in those delightful rooms was just what we need. We all awoke to an amazing morning and walks on manicured paths leading to the river, a goddess' statue, a hot-tub in its own gazebo, and lovely endless gardens. Then an amazing breakfast was served, starting with fresh fruits in yogurt sauce with home-made pumpkin bread, leading to a full breakfast of sausage, hash browns, eggs, biscuits, and ending with a breakfast dessert of fresh strawberry shortcake. It was really unbelievable, and all our stress was relieved. Thank you to Bob and Berniece for creating this bit of Heaven on Earth for weary travelers! After leaving Simple Pleasures, we visited the Amish museum and Rockome Gardens between Arcola and Arthur, Illinois, and learned a great deal about the Amish way of life.

    Truly amazing!! First ever Bed and Breakfast Experience
