If you're looking for a unique experience, check out The Baker House (6 min walk to venue). We do not have a room block here but this is a fabulous option for historians alike!

Built in 1885 as a summer residence for Mrs. Robert Hall Baker, (Emily), the 17,000 square foot, 30 room, Queen Anne Mansion was first named “Redwood Cottage” with the exterior shingles being completely made from the great Californian Redwoods. There are seven different ornate patterns cut into thousands of original shingles which are rivaled only by the craftsmanship of the pristine stained glass, hand planed custom doors, massive fireplace mantles and ornate inlaid wood floors found throughout the home.

Designated a Nationally Registered Historic Property, the Baker House is beautifully preserved with most all of its original ornate details intact. Throughout the home you will find inlaid wood floors made from 5 different species of wood (believed to be one of S.C. Johnsons very first home installations), thirteen ornate fireplaces surrounded by floor to ceiling hand carved mantles embellished with pristine J & JG Low Art Tile of Chelsea, Massachusetts. This rare and highly collectible tile can be seen in every parlor of the mansion and is rumored to be one of the most diverse and well preserved examples Low art tile in the country. (Additional examples of Low Tile can be found at nearby Black Point Mansion and the Richard Driehaus Museum in downtown Chicago).
