Your Bed & Breakfast ExperienceLynne and Bill Harshbarger opened their B&B to the world in 1988 when their children were leaving home. While they worried over what might please their guests and how the house should look and what to fix for breakfast, they soon discovered that it was the whole experience of a B&B that is most attractive to visitors. Guests like everything. Especially they enjoy the quiet music and the art work, but most of all they enjoy sharing their lives and telling their stories. We've listed some of their comments here: "Thank-you for making our stay at the Flower Patch such a wonderful experience! The amenities & attention to detail you share with your guests are amazing. The food was beautiful and so delicious. We will be back!"--Don & Susan Glen Ellyn, IL "I've had the most wonderful experience in your home. The food was just the most wonderful treat - presentation - the taste - I could go on & on. I will come back again. Thank you!" --Denise Chicago, IL "This was our first time staying at a B&B and you made it a wonderful experience. You have set the standard very high for any other we might visit. You made our anniversary a special memory. Hope to be back!" --Cindy & Darrin Morrison, IL "Absolutely Awesome! The best gourmet breakfast we have ever had. The service was fabulous, too, far better than Grand Hotel or Machinac Is. You are very talented, blessed people! I Know the Red V.I.O.L.E.T.S. (our red hat group) will truly enjoy every part of their experience here. " --Jim & Karen Decatur, IL "We had a FABULOUS time celebrating Sotie's birthday here. He said the dinner was wonderful. Each dish was absolutely delicious individually, but everything combined together in an amazing way. True talent and artistry is found in the food here. Thank-you for everything you do! The room is gorgeous & we will be back." --Melissa & Sotie Chicago, IL |
