Vrooman Mansion B&B

SO pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem in the heart of Bloomington. I booked an overnight here in their Carriage House- Charlevoix Suite for my husband’s Birthday and it was just the present I wanted to give him. The suite had the most beautiful decor and luxurious ambiance. The copper claw foot tube being one of my personal favorites. The bed was very comfortable and the thoughtfulness of the amenities was definitely noticed. Pam and her staff were so welcoming. They prepared a delicious birthday cake for my husband and had it in the kitchen when we arrived to the carriage house. They also had some appetizers and a marvelous charcuterie board for us. Pam also went out of the way to make sure that my husband had his Mt Dew Baja Blast and chocolate milk. We had a wonderful stay and then breakfast the next morning was definitely the icing on the cake. We walked over through the amazingly landscaped grounds to the mansion in the morning to be served THE most tasty breakfast I’ve had in a long time. The sweet potato and sausage frittata was so savory and fitting for the first day of fall. However, the peaches n’ cream stuffed French toast was a MUST HAVE, will think about later, dish. 10/10 recommend staying here ESPECIALLY if you’re local like us. What an amazing experience that we’ll always remember. We can’t wait to go back and visit. We hear that Christmas time is extraordinarily magical!

This home is one in a million and we would stay again in a heartbeat. The hostess/owner gave us a wonderful tour of the entire mansion and there were several unexpected amenities including snacks, drinks, treats scattered throughout the home, and luxury personal care items such as shampoo and soap. The owners are carefully restoring stained glass windows and staying true to the history. We own an older home and know how much constant care and attention it takes. You will absolutely love this place if you have any interest in historic homes. Also, the breakfast is to die for!!

We stopped for one night at Vrooman Mansion as part of our Route 66 trip. Brian met us at the door and gave us a full historical tour of the house. As we knew nothing about the house, family or area, this was very interesting. We had a room in the main house. It was very comfortable and spacious. There was A/C, it was little noisy, but it didn’t stop us from having great nights sleep. Breakfast is around a massive dining table with other guests. The food was really good and plentiful. The area was peaceful and within walking distance of the town where there are some nice restaurants. We ate at Epiphany, would recommend it.
