What a beautiful old home. We loved the location and being able to see the river from our bedroom and balcony. Check in was so easy and the hosts were so accommodating. Check in is typically 4 pm and we asked if we could get in a little earlier. We were told the house was open any time that day so we were able to drop our bags at 10 am. The house has everything you can possibly need. We will definitely stay again the next time we need a place in Alton!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is beautiful, as is the yard. The area is just completely peaceful. We really loved the large second floor deck. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning was excellent. There are two large family rooms, both with smart tvs. There were only two of us, but four people would still have tons of space. There is lots of good places to eat within 5 or less minutes away. You will not be disappointed if you stay here, and we plan on coming again.
My family and I had an amazing stay at this beautiful home in a great location. Zero issues, everything was perfect. We were happy to meet Larry, heâs super cool!
We were in town for a wedding and this was a perfect place for our two teenagers to spread out. Very clean, and a good location with the little park across the street and it was walkable to the downtown area. Thank you!
We stayed here over a weekend so we could attend a wedding. Property was easy to find and enter, it was super clean and had everything we needed for our short stay. We really enjoyed morning coffee on the deck with the river view. Was a very nice stay and we wouldnât hesitate to stay here again in the future!
Stayed for a couple of nights for a girlsâ getaway, and this house was perfect! It is very nicely appointed, with many thoughtful touches. Lots of outdoor spaces to enjoy, and within walking distance of downtown and parks. And that river view! We had everything we needed. The host lives right next door, which was helpful, yet not invasive. Would absolutely stay here again.
Staying here is a wonderful and unique experience in one of the oldest homes in Alton. There is a great view of the Mississippi River from many of the windows and the porch. There is a park within easy walking distance to see more river views from the bluffs. The house is very comfortable and has lots of beautiful spaces to relax in.
Immaculate home in a charming neighborhood, and a beautiful view of the Mississippi River. We met the owners who live next door, wonderful people :-) We would definitely stay here again!
Fantastic property and love the river view. The owner is super gracious and helpful. I'm an Alton native and can say with authority, this is the best place to stay in town.
I am very thankful for the opportunity to stay in this beautiful home in a beautiful area. I truly enjoyed my visit with the nearby parks and views of the water and surrounding area. I would enjoy staying here again!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Summit House! Larry was very easy to communicate with and was super friendly and helpful! The views are absolutely beautiful and the house is inviting and so comfortable. We would recommend this beautiful guest house and canât wait to stay again!
Stayed for a few days with my teen for a quiet getaway between Christmas and New Year's. The house was beautiful and very comfortable! I'm particular about cleanliness and appreciated how spotless everything was. Great kitchen too with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The house was also beautifully decorated for the holidays which was a nice surprise. Loved the views of the river and how quiet and peaceful the neighborhood was. We had a great time hanging out and watching movies and reading by the fire place. Alton has a lot of charm with great cafes, restaurants and shops. Will definitely be back again!
The directions and information Lawrence gave was very helpful and we found the place easily. The house was even better than the pictures in the write up portray. The view from every window was of the river. The street is very quiet and peaceful and the views from the backyard always seemed to include a deer or two. The decor and furnishing are very tasteful and the house had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. I recommend highly!
