Old Victorian Farmhouse
As much as I love living in the heart of the city, I just adore getting away from it all - even if it’s just for one night. And especially if it’s for a glorious and relaxing stay at the Old Victorian Farmhouse Bed and Breakfast.
Sherry Corder, along with her husband Archie, opened the Old Victorian Farmhouse in May 2005. True to its name, the house used to be a dairy farm. Today, it is a haven of comfort and times gone by. Full of antiques and old family pictures, something intriguing caught my eye at every turn.
Although the Old Victorian Farmhouse, located in Wauconda, Illinois, is only a short drive from Chicago, you’ll feel like you’re a million miles away. The B&B is also a short drive from Long Grove Village.
What about the bed and the breakfast, you ask? Well, let me tell you! My husband and I stayed in the Secret Garden room, and slept on the most comfortable and luxurious bed I have ever had the pleasure of sleeping on, topped with a featherbed that I would have liked to take home with me, but I could not squeeze it into my suitcase. As for the breakfast, who wouldn’t love Creme Brule French toast, eggs, bacon, and fresh fruit, served on beautiful china, crystal, and silver. Every breakfast should be so fancy. And Sherry is more than happy to share her recipes with the guests, so just ask!
Sherry is also a great resource for what to do while you’re in Wauconda - if you can bring yourself to leave the B&B, that is.
