What a cute little house with so much charm. We loved the brick everywhere, the high ceilings and the private backyard space. We never saw another human but did have a feline visitor when we sat outside. ☺️ Bonus points for the relaxed check in/out times, helpful notes around the house, and for the luxury of prefilled ice trays! Can't wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay in this cozy little cottage! The clawfoot bathtub is wonderful, the beds are comfy, and the retaining walls in back are masterpieces of masonry in and of themselves. It's charming and surprisingly quiet for being so close to downtown Alton. Be warned, the brick road is both rough and steep so you're best off approaching from the top of the bluff. We got great workouts when we ventured out on foot to look at the historic homes in the neighborhood! The host is easy to reach and quick to respond to any question or concerns. We're very happy to have found Tab's in our adventures, a veteran-owned and operated eatery with the most amazing food! A wonderful stay in this historic river town and this quaint little house was perfect for us!
