I was surprised to read the negative review here so I thought I'd add my own.

We've stayed at Marsha's Vineyard twice now and plan to return again this year. We were told when we made the reservation that they no longer do the full breakfast - which is fine with us. We tend to like healthier breakfasts anyway. Instead of doing the full breakfast (the kind that weighs you down for the day) they give you fruit, cereal, yogurt, breads, cinnamon rolls, orange juice, and milk. You don't have to worry about getting up and being on time for breakfast. You don't have to worry about getting ready for breakfast. It's there. You can get up and get it when you like and how you like. And it is also great for snacks during the day.

The rooms are in a separate house from the couple that own it. So it's like being on vacation in your own house. It's private. Yet there is someone just next door.

And the room (we like the downstairs room) is great. Very open. Big windows. Walk out to the back patio. Our daughter loves to go look in the tree house and to chase the cat around. She even got to pick berries the first year when they were in season.

If you are looking for someone to constantly be there for you and do everything for you this is NOT the place to be. If you are looking for a nice, relaxing, private, worry free vacation this is the place for you.

My wife and I just came back from two days at Marsha's Vineyard. The first thing I want to specify is that in my opinion, this is not a Bed & Breakfast. The room was nice, but the brochure states: "Amish cheese and sparking cider await your arrival" neither of these were available for our stay. Secondly, the brochure states: "a full country breakfast will be served with recipes from local Amish and Mennonite women. This was not the case either. Upon our arrival, there was no one present to greet us. An envelope with a key and instructions was stuck on the door. After unloading all our luggage and freshening up, my wife and I left to get some dinner. Upon our return, a gentleman came and informed us that Marsha was out of town for the day and would check on us the following day. He also said that if we had any questions or needed anything to let him know. At this point, we did not have any questions or problems. The next morning we realized that this "Bed & Breakfast" would not be serving breakfast. The refrigerator in the kitchen contained a tin of cinnamon rolls, a few chocolate cookies, a small loaf of pumkin bread, milk and orange juice, and two cups of yogurt. There were also little boxes of cereal, two bananas, and coffee was available if we wanted to make it -- A continental breakfast!! Since we had plans, we made due and went out for a few hours. When we came back to the room early in the afternoon, our room had not been touched. We left again and came back around 4:30 pm and the room had been straightened up and the refrigerator had been restocked with a new pack of snickerdoodle cookies, a small loaf of banana nut bread, and two new cups of yogurt. The bananas, which we had eaten, were not replaced. When we returned around 8:30 pm, my wife called Marhsa, as we had not heard from her, to inquire about the breakfast situation. Marsha stated that she wasn't doing breakfasts anymore and that many B&Bs were going this route. My wife explained to her the B&Bs we've stayed at usually serve a gourmet type breakfast and offer a more personal level of service when compared to hotels. And that if we wanted a continental breakfast we could have stayed at a hotel for nearly half the price. Marsha did offer to get us something if we needed it, but otherwise this is how her B&B operates. I could go on about the disappointing experience we had at this B&B, but my point is that for double the price of a hotel, we got a continental breakfast and the lowest level of service we have ever had at a Bed & Breakfast. We most likely will come back to Arthur, but we will not stay here. I do want to add that my wife and I had a very enjoyable time in Arthur Illinois. Our favorite experience was having dinner in an Amish home. The family that we visited had 5 beautiful children and they all made us feel very welcome. The meal was delicious and plentiful. I highly recommend this experience.
