I happened to end up here by accident and fell in love immediately. The gardens are beautiful and you can walk around outside, meditate and explore for hours. The food from the cafe is 'clean' and yummy. The service is great. The store has all kinds of fun stuff. Overall very welcoming. Didn't do any classes because I didn't have time so review is based on place overall. I'm excited to come back and try

great little theatre with world class talent. it's a gem in the middle of the parking lot- where creativity flourishes and people go to think outside the box by observing or to be empathetic by acting in a role of someone else

We stayed in the downstairs suite (really a room) and loved it. Super spacious room with a super comfy bed and amazing shower. We slept great (though recommend eye shades). Loved the art work in the room. Easy to walk to downtown Carbondale from the hotel. Would love to stay here again! Our dog loved it too! Great smart tv with the Hallmark and Lifetime Christmas channels. Nice fireplace. Nice patio too.

Carbondale Branch Library

Reviewed By CarolSheehy

The help is very nice and I was surprised at how many resources they had for a small town. The only piece that is challenging, is that kids come at the start of the shift and play games until it closes, so it is hard to use the computers.

If you like Jasper Johns this is your special small museum having one of the the nations largest collections. Very nice staff to visit with. And free no less. Three of us enjoyed an hour and would recommend allowing some more time before closing. Hours are 10 to 3, and check the days on line.
