Located ninety minutes south of Chicago, the Greenhouse Bed and Breakfast offers a peaceful, eco-friendly oasis in the heart of north-eastern Illinois farm country. Enjoy a home-cooked breakfast in the warmth of a 1900's vintage farmhouse on our three-acre farmstead. Stroll our organic, permaculture based gardens and orchard, enjoy our colorful chicken flock, and relax on a bench by the lily pond or in a hammock. Behold the benefits of living close to nature. Awaken to a rooster's crow or toad's chirp. Experience the stillness of country living, where on clear nights you can gaze upon beautiful sunsets and a spectacular night sky undisturbed by city lights. Enjoy a quick garden tour - perhaps you'll sight a honeybee from one of our hives. In summer, take a dip in our pool.
We have four bedrooms for overnight guests and facilities for weddings and parties both indoors and outdoors. We chose the name Greenhouse Bed and Breakfast not just because the house is green, but because we do our best to incorporate green principles into our lifestyle. We are affiliated with the Center for Sustainable Community (CSC) a non-profit educational organization in nearby Stelle. We support the efforts of the Center for Sustainable Community to teach more sustainable ways of living, and make our facilities available for CSC programs.
We delight in discussing with our guests topics as varied as sustainability, gardening, permaculture, cooking, beekeeping, poultry raising, spirituality, economics, or whatever interests you. Come for a visit and experience the ambiance of a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.

Pets Welcome
|
|
We charge $7/day extra for a dog to stay.
You need to bring its own food and feeder.
Some dogs love to swim in our lily pond, so we want to make sure the dog doesn’t get into the pond because it can destroy the lilies and other plants.
The dog is welcome in your room but not on the bed. The reason is that we sometimes have guests that are allergic to pets and we want to make sure the linens don't have dog hair on them. We would also appreciate if the dog doesn’t have any accidents in the bedroom.
bullet
Basically, we expect guest dogs to behave as well as our dogs.
