Visited during Thanksgiving weekend of '11 with my partner and our dog. Wanted a place close to Starved Rock where we could just crash after a day of hiking, but Landers was SO MUCH MORE than that. Stayed in the Caribou Cottage: COZY, COMFORTABLE, CLEAN... Among the many great features are the large jacuzzi, gas fireplace, outside firepit, beautiful loft... More

I recently got home from an amazing getaway at Landers House in Utica, and like the comment below me says, although there are past reviews that are not so great, Mary who obviously runs the entire place from what it seemed like, has turned the place around. The cottage was very nice, great 2 person jacuzzi tub and nice decor'.... More

We arrived late (about 10PM), and a key and welcome note were left for us on the front porch of the main house, which serves as a bed and breakfast. The cottages were around the back... More

I was very hesitant to stay at Landers House based off of the past reviews alone. I took the time to call and discuss my concerns with the Property manager-Tara. She was very informative, did a great job at easing my hesitations, appreciated my honesty and took very good care of me. This was for my fiances b-day, we had... More

The Landers House was a great experience. The service was outstanding, allowing me to check in late and having the room set up very nicely for me and my fiance. We stayed in La Noche, it was very romantic and she loved it which is what really matters. Everything was clean and my favorite part was the private firepit outfront... More

My husband and I decided on a quick overnight get away...I found Landers House and we made a reservation, arriving that afternoon. Upon arrival...we almost turned around and left...the front yard landscape looked more like they were preparing for Fright Night...but being brave I said, well maybe it's better inside. We were taken to our room, Jungle Room theme and... More
