Our family of 9 stayed in the Hamilton/Nauvoo area for two weeks in July/August 2023 and the Hamilton House was a wonderful home away from home!
The house has lots of charm and character, and the owners have decorated it thoughtfully and beautifully to reflect the historical importance of the Nauvoo area. The house was very clean and well maintained. Our host, Garrad, was extremely helpful and responsive. Given the size of our group, I was worried that we would regularly run out of hot water for the shower, so Garrad had a tankless water heater installed before our arrival! The AC worked great--which is a must in western Illinois in the summer. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone to stretch out. The kitchen was well stocked and it was fun to gather as a family around the large kitchen table. The brand new washer and dryer were fantastic.
Garrad gave us some great suggestions for exploring and enjoying the area, including historical sites, restaurants, and stores. He was always quick to respond to questions. We were grateful to be only 5-10 minutes away from the Walmart in Keokuk, Iowa for grocery shopping.
We loved our time at the Hamilton House and highly recommend it! Thanks, Garrad, for a great experience in a clean, comfortable, charming home!
