I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!

If you’re looking to stay somewhere with a little slice of history, then you may want to book a getaway at Dutch Inn in Washington, Illinois. This lovely home is where former President Ronald Reagan once stayed when he was on his way to attend Eureka College. Now an Airbnb, it is named after the moniker “Dutch,” which was given to Reagan by his father during childhood.
Dutch Inn is a beautifully remodeled three-bedroom, two-bathroom home that can be rented through Airbnb. Close to restaurants, grocery stores, a cafe, boutiques, and more, it's in the perfect location if you want to have a relaxing getaway and also have the ability to walk into town.
With a warm, comfortable, and inviting atmosphere, this home is tastefully decorated with contemporary furnishings. You will also notice framed posters of movies that Ronald Reagan starred in when he was an actor long before his presidency.
The main floor bedroom has a comfortable queen-sized bed and a desk in case you need to work while away from home. There is also a full bathroom on this level.
Head upstairs and you'll find the roomy second bedroom, also with a queen-sized bed, and ample closet space. And there is a third bedroom with a double bed upstairs as well.
If you are bringing a baby or small child with you, a pack-and-play is available for you to use.
The gorgeous second bathroom also has a washer and dryer for your convenience. It's a truly remarkable house with everything you could ever want for an enjoyable stay!
