Lauded by travelers and locals alike, the Yidz Inn boutique B&B sits on six acres of woodland just outside Carbondale — a mile from Southern Illinois University (SIU). Visitors will find an atmosphere of quiet ease, with outdoor spaces set within a park-like landscape.

Centered around a community kitchen garden plot in a woodland exploration area, the backyard grounds engage children in the natural world in an unstructured — though not unsupervised — way, while adults can enjoy English elevenses or garden tea on the patio.

At the center of the property is a restored farmhouse with beautifully appointed accommodations suited to overnight and weekend stays, whole-house bookings, family gatherings with curated events, graduation celebrations, bridal and baby showers, and other gatherings. A home-cooked breakfast, prepared in our kosher kitchen is included and served daily in the cottage-style tea room.
