A gem in Downtown Lincoln
If you are traveling to Lincoln, IL for any reason, I would highly recommend staying at the Lincoln Lofts. They are a hidden gem in downtown Lincoln right off the town square. The units are immaculate, thoughtfully decorated, and stocked with everything you will need and more for your stay. Megan was a wonderful host and very responsive. My family and I will definitely be back!

Great Spot
My only complaint is that some of the rowdier people that walk by can be heard all the way through the loft. Other than that, very clean, Roku tv with plenty to watch, very cool vibe, and very well done.

Stayed ere for the weekend, loved the set up.and the warm decor
Such a cute place! We found it clean, comfy, and enjoyed walking around Lincoln. We felt safe and would definitely recommend for those looking for a weekend getaway in a quaint town. Bonus is that you can take the train and don't need a vehicle if you don't mind walking!

Darling Renovated Storefront
My husband and I recently stayed at this property for a 50th Class Reunion Weekend. Although it was only the two of us, we thought that this property would be excellent for small groups (family reunion, girls trip or family trip). The property is 100% as advertised. The check-in process was easy. It's a great option over a hotel room(s). It was a pleasure staying in a piece of Lincoln, IL history.

Cute, cozy place
This place was amazing! From the entry behind the bookcases to the renovation that was done! Its right off the town square and so there are some neat antiques shops around too. The beds were cozy and there were kitchen supplies for cooking there in the rental. I wish we had stayed longer! I higgly recomend this VRBO. Ive told all of my family and friends about it!

Quaint and cozy
Quaint and cozy, this space was perfect for our family. Rich historic feel throughout, as well as updated features. This is an older building, so it does smell musty when you first go in, but it does dissipate after a while. Located right in the middle of town.

Great spot right in town!
Stayed with the kids for Great-Grandpa Bill’s 100th birthday, and the place was PERFECT. The kids really enjoyed the loft—it was just for them—and the speakeasy theme was a kick. Easy walk to Guest House coffee and Alley-Bi burgers. Would definitely stay here again.

Unique property
Such a unique property. My teens had a blast with the décor and hidden entrance. The living room was very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. At night we took a nice walk around the town square. We would definitely come back for a longer stay next time.
This property is incredibly unique. So many details bring it to life. Our family was very comfortable with plenty of extra pillows, blankets, towels. K-cup in kitchen was excellent in the mornings. The entire suite was spotless. The only downside, which honestly I hate to say because this place is so awesome….there is a pipe that runs above the bed in the loft. Totally adds to the design aesthetic BUT it drips, almost constantly, internally (you don’t get wet) all…night…long…it’s right above your head so it’s virtually impossible to tune out. The suite is so cool We would stay here again, but maybe with earplugs or a sound machine to drown out the dripping.
