We stayed at the Brightwood Bed and Breakfast from 4/15/2013 to 4/17/2013 in the Door County Room. The stay was very relaxing and the owners, John and Jo and their son and daughter-in-law was very helpful in all of our expectations and questions. The room was decorated with great care and very comfortable for relaxing and reading late at night... More

We recently stayed at the Brightwood Inn in the Door County Room. The room was very clean. We felt welcomed from the time we arrived until we left. We will return in the summer to hike Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks again.

The room we had matched the description perfectly and had some additional amenities such as bath beads for the hot tub. We have already made a reservation to... More

We found this B&B different... More
