A Truly Unique Stay in Historic Savanna
Experience an unforgettable getaway in this stunning, historic church conversion in Savanna, IL. This architectural gem perfectly blends original character with modern luxury, offering a one-of-a-kind setting just two blocks from the heart of downtown. Relax surrounded by beautiful original stained glass windows. Enjoy a haven away from home to rest, refresh, pray, or enjoy what Savanna and the Driftless area have to offer.
The Space: Loft Living Under Soaring Ceilings
Accommodates: Up to 6 guests

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
We had a lovely time staying at the church. We rented it for 2 nights and extended it to 3. Beth was wonderful with communications and the place was better than could be imagined.We were in route to AR for bike riding when our truck camper broke down. After finding out it needed major repairs, we needed to adjust our plans to riding in IA or IL. We stumbled upon the little church on VRBO and couldn't have been more pleased. My mother absolutely loved the church, the hot tub for her aches and sitting around the fire in the eve. We rode bikes around Savanna, Fulton, Rock Island and found many touristy things to go to.
