A Truly Unique Stay in Historic Savanna
Experience an unforgettable getaway in this stunning, historic church conversion in Savanna, IL. This architectural gem perfectly blends original character with modern luxury, offering a one-of-a-kind setting just two blocks from the heart of downtown. Relax surrounded by beautiful original stained glass windows. Enjoy a haven away from home to rest, refresh, pray, or enjoy what Savanna and the Driftless area have to offer.
The Space: Loft Living Under Soaring Ceilings
Accommodates: Up to 6 guests
Bedrooms: 3 each with a queen bed
Bathrooms: 1.5
3 Unique Bedrooms (Sleeps 6): Discover our three sleeping areas. Please note a key architectural feature: the bedrooms are designed in a loft-style/mezzanine layout and do not have traditional enclosed ceilings. This allows you to enjoy incredible views of the building's original soaring roofline and vaulted structure, creating a spacious, open, and airy feel. (But it does not give as much privacy for sound/light). We have white noise makers.
The living space is open and includes large comfortable couches and multiple seating areas. A large smart TV to watch. A beautiful nook with recliner chairs and a fountain to refresh yourself.
Modern Comforts: The 1.5 bathrooms include a beautifully appointed full bath featuring a luxurious rain shower.
The kitchen has modern comforts with gas stovetop, new appliances including a dishwasher, and beautiful dishes and china to use.

Private Backyard: A secluded area for relaxing or gathering. Completely fenced in for children and dogs.
Hot Tub! This lovely hot tub in the backyard will be the ultimate relaxation spot. Pictures coming soon of hot tub.

Nearby is an adorable coffee house and bookstore, the Novel Bloom. Or enjoy biker bars like the famous Poppy's or Iron Horse. Also only 35-40 min to Galena, 25 minutes to skiing, and various wineries also close by.
