We had a wonderful stay at the Charming Cottage in Downtown Geneva, IL. The cottage has been tastefully updated that allows for all modern comforts, but maintains the charm of its historic past. It is a place that we wish we had more time to enjoy, but all good things come to end. We will definitely plan on future visit again.The kitchen is a bit tight, but is fully equipped and has everything that chef needs to make wonderful meals, but with so many wonderful restaurants within walking distance, it’s to resist eating out. We loved the dining room, a room where one can have meal with the family with a full view the beautiful surroundings.It was quite and one can relax, but Geneva is quite a charming town. The Fox River Trail offers a scenic walk, or one can rent a bicycle at Mill Race Cyclery and explore more of the beautiful town. Plenty of shops, boutiques, and eateries. You can spend more than a day exploring the town. Kristina was a wonderful hospital host. She made sure that we were comfortable and even reminded us of events such as the Sunday French Market, a farmers market that is one of the best I have ever been too. She even mailed back my son’s favorite hat that we left behind.Of course, there is always Chicago (and Lake Michigan) that is close by. We stopped by Indiana Dunes State Park (There is the adjacent National Park as well) with some beautiful beaches and great amenities. It is an hour and a half away, but definitely worth the trip.
