About the host
Hosted by Victoria Johnson
I moved from Washington State to Murphysboro, IL in September 2019. I had never been to Southern Illinois and knew no one in the area. I fell in love with this gorgeous house on Zillow, went into escrow without seeing it in person, quit my job of 10 years and decided to just go for it! YOLO as the millennials say! After all, I was just about to turn 50 and I wasn’t getting any younger.
I have long dreamed of owning an Inn and Event Venue where my house could also be my business. Such a Hallmark movie fantasy of mine.
I take a lot of pride in what I’m doing, as this is my heart, my passion and my livelihood. I do my very best, every day, to make this vision not only come to fruition (which I think it’s in the process of), but to also be sustainable and wildly successful. And that means everyone’s experience here will provide them with beautiful and lifelong memories!
Thank YOU to my guests, friends, family, and supporters for being a part of my dream! And for being the very BEST part of my story!
Much love and gratitude,
Victoria (and my baby, Maggie)

What makes this property unique
We offer a variety of guest services including spa treatments in your bedroom or in the Spa.
You can also add a cocktail hour with a charcuterie board spread on the evening of your arrival.
We have two Reme Halo In-duct air purifiers which claim to “reduce common allergy triggers from particulates such as pollen, mold spores, dander and dust. Thoroughly tested on airborne and surface bacteria & viruses, such as MRSA, e-coli, and Norwalk, to name a few. It removes odors from cooking, pets, dirty socks, diaper pails, and musty rooms.”
We also have a Reverse Osmosis (RO water) filter system in the kitchen you are welcome to drink. We use it in the coffee pots and it makes for delicious coffee! The Benefits of Reverse Osmosis Water “is that it contains no lead, reducing the risk of high blood pressure and kidney/liver issues. RO water contains no parasites. Water parasites, especially cryptosporidium, can get into the digestive tract and cause stomach pain or other gastrointestinal issues. It tastes delicious and guests love it!
