We chose this B & B because it was close (20-30 minutes drive) from Tuscan Hills Winery in Effingham, IL...a lovely family owned winery that we wanted to visit. There were many lodging choices but we wanted a B & B for relaxation!
Nice local people. Helpful with directions and dining recommendations
Small drive through town with not much to offer. Pot hole streets. Just kind of an old almost run-down feel low to barely mid class town
There was not a lot to do in Charleston. We traveled out of Charleston everyday of our trip. The dining options was not good either.
I feel like EIU is Charleston's biggest attraction. All other surrounding towns are small
My mom now lives in Charleston, she's 92 y.o.. I grew up 15 miles east of Charleston. But I moved away in 1974 and currently live in Mason, OH. I come back to see mom, relatives in the area & high school classmates.
