About this property
Charming Cottage, close to all the sights.
Welcome to our very own White House. This charming little place was built in 1925 and has retained all of its original Craftsman style. It has 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. It also has what we lovingly refer to as the ¼ bathroom down stairs. There is a full sized and well stocked kitchen, with attached dining room and a comfortably furnished living room. There is a desk to one side for those who need to bring a little work along on the trip. There are 2 queen beds and 1 full bed. There are also two fold away mattresses. This place comfortably sleeps 8 people. All of the beds and bedding are new and of a high quality. This place is in the downtown Nauvoo district and is minutes away from all of the historical sites. You can walk to the temple and take it all in. It is a block from the Dollar General and Casey’s gas station.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Marianna Bailey

Larry and I (Jenny) have recently moved here from the Pacific Northwest. We are empty nesters who have found a little niche in Nauvoo. Larry and I met in London, England (at church by the piano) and have never looked back. We have 5 adult children and a very fine dog. We live locally and can often be found taking the dog for a walk usually to the temple.
Why they chose this property
Everybody knows this little house. It caught our eye when we moved here. We could not help noticing how pretty it was (lovingly referred to as the 'Up' house because of its very pointy roof and lovely front porch. It is just as pretty inside.
What makes this property unique
This house is in a great location. Just a short block away, you'll find a gas station convenience store with hot foods readily available. Just half a block further west is Dollar General. Half a mile beyond that is the Temple, all within walking distance. The comforts of home but the convenience of town make this a great option for your stay in Beautiful Nauvoo.
