Many thanks to Gwenn, Glenn, and Valerie for their wonderful hospitality. We have stayed at Blessings a number of times while our daughter has been attending Illinois College and it is always a wonderful experience. Very highly recommended.

Blessing on State is an excellent bed & breakfast in Jacksonville. The home is spacious and beautifully decorated. Guests are welcomed into the family and the breakfasts are delicious. The B & B is within walking distance of the Jacksonville Square. I highly recommend Blessings on State for a comfortable stay, a generous breakfast, and warm hospitality. It has become... More

Stayed for a few days at this B&B while visiting family in the area. It was very relaxing. Our room was beautiful and large. Hospitality was excellent. Breakfasts were wonderful and Gwenn accommodated the fact that we are vegetarians. Would definitely stay there again when in the area.

This was our first experience at a B&B and it truely exceeded all of our expectations. Not only did Gwenn, Glen and Val make us feel like we were at home and part of the family, but so did their friends Casey Collins and Terry & Mac McGlothlin by presenting us with some gracious gifts in honoring Tim on Veterans...

This gorgeous home is top notch, and kept exceptionally clean and comfortable. The Innkeepers have covered every little detail, and then some. I really don't see why anyone would even consider staying... More

I was in Jacksonville with 2 other friends, we rented both suites and couldn't have been more comfortable or pampered. Gwenn, her husband Glen and young daughter Valerie are the most hospitable innkeepers, and have thoughtfully prepared their excellent b&b... More

We started out searching the hotels in Jacksonville, but are so glad we found this B&B instead! The accomodations were truly first class and Gwen the innkeeper made us feel completely at home. Possibly one of Jacksonville's best kept secrets!

This past weekend we returned to Jacksonville for my wife's 50th high school reunion. Rather than the normal hotel reservation we searched Trip Advior for bed & breakfast sites in the area. To my surprise, Blessings on State popped up with almost all 'excellent' ratings. When I called, owner Gwen was helpful and very informative. Upon arrival we were pleased... More
