The Chestnut Charm Experience
This bed and breakfast is in a 126 year old treasure of a former mansion. The B&B Is period comfortable, decent, safe, sanitary, and an architectural delight. The owner/operator is a devoted gardener, delightful host, and informative historian. We had a wonderfully unique stay.

Don’t let the outside fool you, this home is a beautiful example of its 1890’s heritage. Stunning stained glass, original woodwork and windows. The beds are firm and breakfast comes with wonderful stories if you request them.

Staying in a Victorian Mansion with History
If you want to step back into the age of lumber barons and other characters, then this is the place to stay! Be sure to ask Barbara about the history of the mansion. It is fascinating - dating back over 125 years. The bed and the room were very comfortable. Everything was spotless. The center of Atlantic is just a short walk away. It was easily accessable even on a very warm Spring evening. We would absolutely stay here again.

Needs work.
The owner was a very nice lady. She wanted to talk with ya. And help suggest ideas of things to do and where to eat. The up keep on the bed and breakfast is to much for one person to handle. So I feel she struggles keeping things done. She is trying to do everything herself. I felt like I was a teenager again as I felt you couldn’t come and go without saying what you were doing and when you were coming back. There was no key for the front door so you had to ring for her to come unlock the front door. So we didn’t want to be out to late. The sun porch where we had our breakfast had plants and pots full of dirt. Cobwebs were everywhere out there. So felt very unclean. We will not be staying here again. Unfortunately we were not satisfied. Also I knew breakfast was extra money. We paid onsite instead of hotels.com wish we would’ve it would’ve been cheaper. As it was going to be $310 then add the 40 for breakfast for two times two mornings so should’ve been $350. Was charged $369 I think.

Barbara, the proprietress was very accommodating from check in through check out. Our bed was very comfortable and our room was quiet and nicely appointed. Breakfast, at the time we chose, was delicious-baked apple, specially prepared oatmeal and tasty Iowa bacon, juice and lots of coffee. I am gluten free so this food was prepared specially to accommodate me. We enjoyed eating in the sun/plant room.

Unexpected Gem
This is not your typical hotel, if you are looking for a unique hotel experience this place is a must. Very comfortable and peaceful and felt like we were stepping back to a more elegant time. Barbara is a wonderful host and a great resource of information about the local area. We would certainly stay here again.

Barbara is a nice host, engaging with her clients. The property is too much for one person to care for. The critical reviews which have been written describe the truth of this property. We could find no other lodging available for the Walnut antique show, and I can see why this property was open.

We've all been in boring cookie cutter hotels. Here, in contrast, was a beautiful Victorian home complete with Victorian furniture, fireplaces, and chanedliers. Truly an unexpected surprise. Surrounded with flowers, a gazebo, and lawns, it conveys a quiet charm from another era. The host served a wonderful home cooked breakfast. Honestly, I can't understand why anyone visiting this part of Iowa would stay anywhere else. This is the place to go.

My girlfriend and I found this place after the hotel we originally planned to stay at for a friend’s wedding, was fully booked. It was the best thing that could have happened, because Chestnut Charm B&B was such a great experience! It definitely made our trip from out of state, so good. From check-in to check-out, we were very well pleased with our stay. Barbara was very kind, down to earth and hospitable. She treated us as though we were family. Our room, Gretels Garden, was very clean and so homey. The jacuzzi tub was extremely relaxing and definitely got a lot of use during our weekend stay. The surrounding area, complete with trees, flowers, plants, and various wildlife was serene. Barbara made some of the healthiest and tastiest breakfast we’ve ever had! The fact that she uses stuff from her own garden is great. The coffee alone was so pure and smooth. We have absolutely nothing bad to say. This place far exceeded some of the best hotels we’ve stayed at in our travels. If you are looking for something serene, cozy, homey, friendly, with a delicious homemade breakfast, then this is the place for you. If we are to travel back to the Atlantic, Iowa area again, we will absolutely be staying here again. Thank you Barbara for a great experience!!!! - Jeremy & Danielle

A charming historic home (I love old homes!) Our spacious bedroom and bathroom were clean. We had a very comfortable, quiet sleep and a delicious, healthy breakfast the next morning…omelette with fresh veggies, bacon, coffee, juice, and a cinnamon apple muffin…was awesome! The hostess, Barbara, was helpful in providing travel tips and best routes to our next destination.

Where to start. Pulled into drive, noticed the front yard had not been mowed for weeks let alone been weed-eated. The outside of the main house had paint peeling off with shrubs and trees being over grown and not maintained. The back yard was even worse, especially around the back porch area. Upon walking into the front porch, an overwhelming bad smell was apparent. Numerous dead plants filled the front porch. Upon entering the house, the bad smell continued as Barbara rushed us through the house into the kitchen area. Upon entering the kitchen, we noticed the stove was missing burners, as well as the kitchen being a mess and cluttered with papers everywhere. Barbara asked what we wanted for breakfast and stated she would cook something if she felt up to it. As we got to our room, she had covered our fireplace with cardboard, with no prior notification or explanation. A doorway had been boarded up with plywood to separate two rooms. The plywood was covered by stapling a make shift curtain to it. Upon leaving our room, we were told we would need to lock up and turn off the lights down stairs if we were going to be late. Was provided the password for the WiFi but would not work in our room. The property offers a gazebo in the backyard but offers no seating and is used to dry laundry during the day. On our last day there, Barbara tried charging us more than what was quoted by Travelocity, stating the taxes are higher than quoted. Would NOT recommend to anyone.

Nice chestnut charm
Chestnut charm is a nice place old home built in the 1800s has the old world charm to it. Paid a little more to get a bigger room with a private bathroom with fireplace and jacuzzi it was worth it. The lady runnig the home is nice and helpful. And a good cook breakfast was amazing. She fixed us a stuffed pancake with fresh apples in it. Overall I would highly recommend chestnut charm bed and breakfast. Had a nice and relaxed stay.
