About this property

Nauvoo Mansion On the Hill-You Get the Whole House:

Nauvoo Mansion On the Hill is one of the nicest properties any where, but we feel it is by far the nicest in all of the Nauvoo Area. This is a rare opportunity to bring you whole family on a vacation of a life time. The house will sleep 14 and one infant in a crib. The house is located on 2 acres overlooking the Mississippi River. 14 minutes to the Nauvoo temple, 40 minutes to Carthage, 2 hours to Springfield Illinois(Abraham Lincoln lived in this area for over 30 years, his home and furnishings are still awaiting you. The new Presidential Lincoln Library is an absolute must. Nauvoo has been restored to it's original 1830's era, take a free horse drawn wagon ride to see all the old homes, the printing press, the black smith shop where they will make you a free prairie diamond ring, the old brick kiln where you will see them make brick, and they will give you one made right from the kiln.

Amazing stay on the Mississippi near Nauvoo.

We were so grateful to stay in this beautiful house. It is surrounded by forest on three sides, and the Mississippi river on the other. What an amazing view and what a beautiful home. The home has such beautiful, big windows that let in so much light and happiness. The kitchen was well equipped, and the house was clean, tidy, and beautifully decorated. The upstairs bedrooms were Themed, which made it fun for our kids to choose their favorite room. We will definitely stay here again.

Week in Nauvoo

The mansion was just that! The pictures do not do justice to the actual home. Clean, orderly, beautifully appointed and nice environment. We lacked nothing and our morning and evenings together in the mansion were memorable. The location was ideal, located halfway between Nauvoo and Carthage. Easy access to stores in Keokuk was a nice affordance. My brothers and our wives get together each year. This was by far the nicest place we have stayed! Anyone spending time in Nauvoo should stay here.

Diamond in the rough

The host was kind and accommodating. This place is indeed laid out like a mansion, and the 13 of us had plenty of room to gather or spread. The rooms look neat and kept in order. We enjoyed the ping-pong table, and the deck (after applying deet against bugs, it's a common Mississippi blessing). There are signs of neglect, though. The driveway could use a load of gravel on the steep section so cars won't get stuck. The plants around the house could use a trimming. We found mouse droppings inside. The WiFi didn't work. If you don't mind some roughness in your experience you'll enjoy the place.

Geode Fest 2022

The property is fairly well maintained. There was some confusion on the checkin process (they were transitioning to a new security system), but we managed. There was quite a bit of dust etc. on the ceiling fans and the windows were quite dirty. Overall, very comfy and easy to feel at home. The grill was very nice and functional. The kitchen was well equipped with appliances and tools (difficult to find sometimes - not surprising for a rental, but well furnished). Knowing that the property owner no longer lived on the premises, I planned for delays in return messaging, and it worked out fine. Responses were within a day or two. As recommended on the website, if you have any questions, ask ahead of time and be prepared.

Nice place with plenty of room for all!

We had a wonderful stay! Beds were comfy, place was clean. Convenient location to the Tri State Rodeo, which is why we went. Would definitely stay here again!
