Be home away from home @ Charming Chestnut Cottage
CHARMINGLY RENOVATED HISTORIC CHESTNUT COTTAGE is nestled against the magnificent stone wall and grounds of the Lee Mansion. Built in the 1800's as the quaint house keepers cottage of the mansion, it retains much of its original wood work/ built-ins/hardware updated with modern amenities.

I live in a neighboring town so if you need anything I can help. I also can offer highlights and things to do. I’m a survivalist, bushcrafter, and forest school teacher so if you’d like a foraging/outdoor experience let me know!
Quiet and family based this is a lovely street. We are in walking distance to historic downtown, the Amtrak train station with service into Chicago, the grocery store, dining, shopping, hiking, and a beautiful live theater and library.
Lockbox is located on the driveway side of the front porch. You will receive a check in code on the day of check in.
Absolutely no events allowed. Please respect the family based neighborhood. Please collect all trash, do dishes, and tidy up before you leave, please put key back in lock box.
