    We stayed there because of its close location to a wedding we were attending. The owners were very pleasant and the village of Elsah and the inn was so quaint. Definitely a "do" if you happen to be in that area.

Company information

Gary and I fulfilled our lifetime dream of owning a Bed and Breakfast when we purchased Green Tree Inn in June, 2012. We love getting to know our guests over breakfast. I love to cook and see our guests enjoy my cooking. We are happy to offer recommendations for restaurants and things to see and do in our area. Gary loves to go antiquing and to auctions. We offer an on-site antique room for our guests to shop and take home a treasure.
