This was one of several stays we have had at this inn. It keeps luring us back because of genial hosts Jeff and Monika, Monika's outstanding well-thought-out scrumptious meals, the comfortable rooms, the overall warm atmosphere that surrounds you when you enter the house, as well as the tantalizing aromas that waft through the house from the kitchen, and the quiet small town that it is located in and the spacious property that it sits on. The plaster walls in the home make it a quiet retreat. The home is a great launching point for activities that can include biking and fishing along a canal, antiquing, shopping for furniture in Kewanee, visiting a covered bridge in nearby Princeton, or spending time at a winery.

Rosewood Suite was lovely with a private dining room, bathroom and working fireplace. Dinner was exceptional in the common dining room and breakfast was wonderful in our private dining area. King size bed was very comfortable. Chestnut Street Inn is perfect for any kind of a getaway.

Our first stay at the Chestnut Street Inn was back in April 2008. We had such a marvelous time that we swore that we would return again sometime in the future. We decided to go ahead and make plans to return in November of this year. We spent 3 nights during our stay in November. We spent 1 night in the Blue Room and 2 nights in the Rosewood Suite. Monika is an amazing Chef so we ate all of our breakfasts and dinners at the Inn. We had such a wonderful experience during our first stay that we didn't think that it could be possible for the second stay to be even better than the first. This second stay was even better. All of Monika's meals are nothing short of delicious! I have Gluten and MSG intolerances and Monika is great when it comes to dealing with different food issues. Monika and Jeff are very nice and gracious Innkeepers. They go above and beyond in everything that they do for their guests and it shows. The Christmas decorations were up during this stay and it was so nice being able to enjoy in the festivities at the Inn. We really wish that we lived closer because we would stay more often if we didn't have to drive so far. We have stayed at many places during our travels and we have to say that this is one of our absolute favorites. We highly recommend it. The Chestnut Street Inn is a triple threat-great accommodations, great food and fabulous Innkeepers. You just can't go wrong by staying at this Inn. Hopefully we can return again sometime soon.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! You won't find a better bnb anywhere, and you definitely won't come close to finding breakfast and dinner as delicious as what Monika & Jeff serve up!

The Chestnut Street Inn is a gem of a B&B located in the small village of Sheffield. There's little traffic and convenient parking right in front of the inn. From the moment we stepped through the door and were greeted by the aroma of freshly baked bread we felt at home and at ease. Jeff and Monika, the innkeepers, are congenial, engaging and enthusiastic hosts who are dedicated to ensuring that you have an enjoyable stay. As their website includes ample photos of the inn and the monthly menu list I won't try to describe the decor or individual gourmet dishes that Monika prepares. Suffice it to say that the rooms (and beds) are comfy, the plumbing and furnace work just fine, and the common areas are well-decorated, comfortable and conducive to relaxing and mingling with fellow guests. A big plus was having dinner available in the evening after a day of sightseeing. No need to go away from the inn seeking a restaurant. Our meal was Moroccan themed (Monika's specialty) and all dishes were interesting and tasty. The high point of the meal, for me, was the creme brulee which was the best I've ever eaten. The inn also serves the best coffee that we have ever had at a B&B. There is a wine list with a limited selection of reasonably priced wines. If you would like to bring your own wine it is easy to check their website to see what is being served for dinner so you can make an appropriate pairing. There is a nominal corkage fee of $5. We had a thoroughly pleasant stay at very reasonable rates and look forward to a return visit soon.
