About

Since 1885, Captain JC Gilchrist’s house has been a staple in Vermillion. While it’s served many different purposes over the years, what hasn’t changed is the house’s gorgeous design, charm, and reminder of a simpler time. Today, the house is your home away from home. Located just minutes from the lake, 5-star dining, and museums, there’s something for the whole family in Vermillion -- but with visits from a yoga instructor and massage therapist, you may never want to leave the house. Rita makes sure everything is taken care of while you’re under her roof -- it’s why so many guests return as friends. So come step back in time -- there’ll be a soft bed waiting for you.
