Private River Views, Lush Gardens, and Bird-Watching

Surrounded by thick woods on three sides and the Mississippi River on the fourth, the Goldmoor Inn offers a classic country inn experience that is just six miles from historic Galena, Illinois but seems like worlds away.

Enjoy majestic wildlife up close—from the deer that stroll out of the woods and onto the front lawn to bald eagles soaring down to fish the river. (Binoculars are available at the front desk—just ask!)

In the fall, nothing compares to the dramatic golds, oranges, and rubies of the woods as they undergo their seasonal transformation. Even in winter, the bare trees frame exquisite river views that will make you lean just a little closer to the fire.
