Circa 1845. Would you like to sleep where Abraham Lincoln once stayed? This historic inn actually can boast of Mr. Lincoln having "slept here." The Patchwork Inn is the sort you can imagine as providing a speaking platform as well from its two-level veranda across the front facade. Guest rooms feature access to the veranda, and there are high-ceilings and beds with handmade quilts, the theme of the inn. Guests are pampered at breakfast with a choice of service in your room, the parlor, sun room or on the front porch. A walk away is the river, dam and tree-lined streets filled with historic houses. Guests often enjoy canoeing on Rock River, picnicking in one of the three state parks or visiting Ronald Reagan's homestead in Dixon.
