Upside: the property was very conveniently located to historic Nauvoo, easy to find, easy to park at, fit our whole family (2 adults 4 kids), & gave us a way to prepare food during our stay, so on that front it was exactly what we were looking for. Downside: cleanliness wise it felt like we may have been the first stay after the winter off season, the windows were so drafty the paper blinds would move/scrape through the night, one shower head fixture would spray water over the shower door, & there was no direct thermostat control. Bottom line: there’s a reason it was cheaper than other options in the area, & if you go in knowing that, you’ll be fine. It was a place to stay & worked fine, it just wasn’t what you call a great stay.

It was in a great location. The unit was clean but there was a heavy smell of cats. The walk-in shower would only flow for 15 seconds and would shut off. Finally discovered a weird little valve behind the shower head.

Love this apartment.
Loved this home. This cozy home was built about 1901. We enjoyed our stay there. Queen bedroom with full bathroom. Second bathroom by the kitchen. Second bedroom has a twin bed. There is also a sofa sleeper and air mattress. Kitchen was well stocked with cookware, dishes, toaster, coffee maker, ice cream maker, mixer, blender and slow cooker. We were able to cook all our meals. I loved it. Owner is quick to respond to question. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. I was so grateful I was able to bring my 14 year old cat. This was a home away from home. It is on a second floor. There is a secure private entrance. Parking on site. It’s a gem in Nauvoo.

Happy with our stay
Very accomodating host. Quick to answer questions. Plenty cool with the window a/c units. Very comfortable mattresses and air mattress with the exception of the couch bed. Couch itself is comfortable. Convenient location to shops, temple, and historic sites.

Good, but some things you should know
The Fairy Bowery in Nauvoo allowed us to bring our dog. It's hard to find accommodations that are pet friendly! Rebecca was quick to reply to both emails and telephone calls. Overall, it was clean, but the place has quite a strong animal odor. Some people in our party were quite bothered by it, while others weren't. It has a window air conditioning unit and two or three fans, but no central air. It was hot in the back bedroom. Also, it is listed as a 6 person rental. There is a bedroom with a queen bed, a small alcove with a single and a sofa bed, which was very uncomfortable. In fact, my son ended up leaving it as a sofa and sleeping on that. The sixth bed is actually a blow up mattress that we had to blow up ourselves. So, yes, it technically can sleep six people, but not comfortably. The location was very close to everything downtown, and right across the street from the golf cart and go cart rentals, which was awesome. There is a gas station across the street which was convenient for late night snacks and pizza.
