Just as a heads up, it appears that possibly the Beall Mansion is closed. Have tried emailing and calling for information on several occasions and received no response. No open slots on their website reservations system. No reviews have been posted for over a year.

My husband and I eloped and had our ceremony here three years ago this September. They offer a wonderful package for a small ceremony which included a stay at the bed and breakfast, a spot for the ceremony, an officiant, sparking cider or champagne, and a lovely little cake from a local bakery. We chose to have our ceremony outdoors on their beautiful grounds. It was a perfect day and although I was 5 months pregnant and feeling far from beautiful, the ceremony was gorgeous (and my hubby, oh, so handsome). Would recommend for a wedding big or small, or just as a romantic getaway.

This gorgeous historic Bed and Breakfast was perfect from scenery to service. Very quiet (besides us) and relaxing. Every time I looked around I saw something new ?

Not sure why, but the 3 star review I left a year ago disappeared. It was more like a 2 star stay. How is it that only the 5 star reviews remain? Breakfast was a joke paper plates and Styrofoam cups. room temp water bottles were the only drinks. paid extra for flowers and Champaign we got pieces of a fake rose on the bed and a GLASS of Champaign. beautiful home and property, but for the almost $1000 for a 2 night stay I feel like I was taken advantage of.

We only took a tour of the mansion, but everything about it was impressive, from the beauty and craftsmanship of the house, to the quality appointments of the rooms, to the encyclopedic knowledge of the history of the home and the area on the part of our host, Jim. We only found out about the Beall Mansion on the day we booked the tour, already had other lodging.

This property is worn and tired. 5 years or maybe 10 it would of looked like the pictures we saw on line. There is a continental breakfast in a bag at your door in the morning, no gourmet breakfast. Hard boiled egg( mine had a black yolk ) which I threw out. Stayed 2 nights. No fresh towels the 2 nd morning. No chocolate buffet, Hershey nuggets on a plate in your room. We were told they had no help and because of Covid. Stayed in Galena Illinois for 2 nights in a B and B 2 days after. Gourmet breakfast, wonderful chocolates and fresh towels.

We came for a tour and were quite impressed by our tour guide Jim, the owner of the mansion. He was very friendly and gave us so much information about the history of the mansion. Because it’s a living history museum, we were able to touch everything and feel like we were part of the history he was sharing. We would definitely return, and hopefully even stay overnight.

My family and I did the hour tour and it was excellent. Jim was very knowledgeable not only of this mansion but the surrounding ones as well. This is a beautiful mansion and they have done great to preserve the history. Each individual piece was beautiful! I definitely recommend visiting here. It is way worth it.

Wanted to surprise my wife with a weekend trip and The Beall Mansion was a huge success! The house is incredible and the grounds were peaceful and beautiful. The town was also a delight with Duke's Donut shop, Tony's Steakhouse, and some great local coffee shops. The owners were a delight!

Returned after 1st staying 14 years ago and enjoyed it just the same if not more this time. Missed eating at the table like traditional bed and breakfast (darn you COVID!) and missed the chocolate bar set-up, however breakfast was filling and chocolate was served whenever you would ask. Enjoyed sitting outside the property, taking in the scenery and relaxing (beautiful yard and garden area), or just hanging out in our room. Beds are super comfy! Stayed in the king room this time (queen room on prior stay). Soaking in the tub is very relaxing, and we used Sandy's homemade bath salts that were provided. Jim and Sandy really take pride in caring for the property and sharing the history of it. Would definitely return again for another anniversary weekend!

The house and gardens are stunning. I was impressed with the attention to detail and the Alton history lesson. Everything was just perfect
