Swamp land was turned into lush woods and serene lakes, and fireplace mantles and library paneling were imported from Paris, Vienna, and London.<\/p>\n<p>It is said that the marble staircase was built with Jonathan and Lolita&#8217;s daughter in mind. They hoped one day she would descend the curving stairway on her wedding day, which she did in 1921.<\/p>\n<h1>\n\t\tRecommended Hotels\n\t<\/h1>\n\t<h2>Hilton Garden Inn<\/h2>\n<p>26225 Riverwoods Boulevard<\/p>\n<p>Lake Forest, IL 60045<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A room block is available at the Hilton with a discounted nightly rate.
