It is as big as some hotels but has the same feel as being at home. Joyce & Julie are very accommodating and it is right outside of downtown Carbondale. The location is beautiful with its grounds, pool, hot tub, lake & fountains. Definitely going to come back. Only thing that they can improve on is improving the WIFI as it does go in and out sometimes. Other than that, go check it out!

My wife and I had our wedding here last Saturday. Throughout the whoel time from reserving the…read morelocation to cleaning up after the wedding the staff was amazingly friendly and willing to help make our wedding day as special as possible. The mansion its self is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. There is plenty of room throughout the house that both the both sides of the bridal party were able to get ready without even being on the same floor or side of the house. My wofe stayed the night before int he bridal suite which is huge. If the complete bridal party wanted to stay the night before the wedding they could with ease. We had a very big bridal party containing 20 people and had plenty of room. The outside of the mansion is beautifully landscaped with a gorgeous lake out front with a couple of fountains inside. There's a inground pool, hottub and outdoor bar/grill area also. Pine Manor went above and beyond to make our wedding day special and absolutely gorgeous!!

We had the front unit for a "girls weekend." The interior is very nice, clean and updated. We…read morereally liked the front unit because we could sit out on the porch and watch what was happening in town. I understand that the rear unit is more private and has a fenced patio. The kitchen area is well stocked with full-size appliances. Most anything you would want is there, glasses, plates, corkscrews, etc. There is one bathroom, and two bedrooms each with one queen-size bed. In the closets there is additional bedding and some inflatable air beds. I was concerned when we made the reservation because the building is the old general store, and some times I find old buildings musty. FEAR NOT! All of the interior walls are new construction and there is a beautiful original brick wall in the common area and bedroom. The owner, Brian, was friendly and helpful. The Loft is located near some of my favorite places on the Shawnee Wine Trail,

When we booked the entire property(mansion, barn and grounds) 2+ years in advance we were elated…read more The tour of the mansion and the property were beautiful. We had also been to a few events at the property before touring it. 9 days before our event(wedding), the owners tried to cancel. 5 days before our event, the owner asked if a man we did not know could share space in the mansion with our wedding crew. The day we check in at the property the barn was not ready. It was dirty and we had to clean it. We also had to place all the tables and chairs that the owners said they would set up per the contract. Every single chair was covered in filth. The owners did not properly clear the snow either. The day of our event the owner kept inserting themselves into our guests and networking. They were also seen taking photos during the ceremony. The guests were facing the owner when they took the photos. The electric service in the barn is not capable of running 3 roasters. We asked about this before planning to use them for the meal; we were told it'll work just fine. It did not. After the lights went out(during reception) my husband, an electrician, looked the service over and said there was no way the roasters could stay on. Due to the owners not clearing the snow properly we had 5 guests get stuck while trying to leave. Going back to when we checked in; Rhonda told us to call her if we needed anything. We dialed her several times and she never answered. I had to go physically find her. There was also a trailer parked right where everyone would walk past to get to the barn. It was loaded up with dead appliances, a used mattress and cardboard boxes. An absolute eyesore. There were also two vehicles parked out there to die as well. Two dead lawn mowers in the tree line too. None of these issues were present when we booked. Everything was pristine and stunning. Inside the mansion the bathrooms were not clean. Toilets had murky water and mold growing in the bowls. There were also dead insects everywhere. As long as Rhonda and Bryan are in charge of the property, I do not recommend Historic Bell Hill. It is such a shame for such a grand property to be ill managed.

The barn was not equipped for cold temperatures and the venue did nothing to rectify this. The previous reviews were from the former owners. I cannot recommend this venue based on our experience and the lack of service, especially if you are planning a wedding in late autumn through early spring. The venue is not at all prepared for cold temperatures.

I know people say to take it out but we're not touching someone else's personal items. This place charges sales tax but I'm not sure why... no other campground in Illinois has charged us tax of any kind. We've asked at other campgrounds about this and they say that tax isn't charged for tent or rv sites but is charged for cabins as they are considered regular lodging. This place says that they are required to charge it but something doesn't seem right about that (not in Illinois anyway).
