BEALL MANSION, une élégante maison d'hôtes

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.

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.

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!

Very friendly and knowledgeable owners! Had a wonderful visit! Would highly recommend a stay!

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.

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

My husband and I stayed at the mansion in November for our local, honeymoon weekend. We loved our experience. We felt like we stepped into an episode of "Downton Abbey." We felt like a Lord and Lady walking through the mansion, exploring and delighting our senses with the grandeur, beauty, history and craftsmanship. Thank you Jim and Sandy for being a welcoming host and hostess. Mr. and Mrs. Anderson.

The house was amazing and the owners were wonderful.

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 🤩

I am sorry, but this is not a 5 star property. Where do I start. My wife and I were looking for a staycation. The property is right next to the bluffs and the leaves are turning. However, $300 a night for the 3rd floor guestroom with no fireplace or Jacuzzi tub. Only to be offered one of these rooms for an additional $100 is absurd. Our experience was not 5 star by any stretch of the imagination. Not to mention an additional $60 if we would like to check out at noon instead of 11. Not to mention there were plenty of rooms unoccupied. The breakfast was a piece of fruit, coffee and a danish, and an egg or yogurt. Also, a full-size bed, not even a queen. We have stayed all over the country and am very disappointed. Reached out to management with no response. Oh and my wife is a chocolate lover, picture to follow. No chocolate buffet and this is how are coffee was served in this 5 STAR property. Thought the powdered creamer was a nice touch.

Our wedding was at Beall last weekend. It was small, but truly magical and I would not change a thing! Everything and every owner/ staff member encountered was wonderful!

staff was very kind and professional. unique place that is one of a kind. 10 out of 10.
