As if running a successful roofing, siding and gutters business wasn’t enough, Richard Spanton Jr. and his wife Chrissie Spanton are now putting the last finishing touches on their luxury bed and breakfast in Rockton, Illinois. Although the primary business, Mastercraft Exteriors, takes up most of Richard’s time, he and his wife Chrissie have kept extra busy with the construction for this inn. The original limestone home that Richard Spanton Jr. purchased was built in 1858, giving them an exact grand opening of 150 years.

Richard Spanton Jr. and his wife Chrissie Spanton are proud to be owners and proprietors of the Copperstone Inn, which boasts four rooms with Jacuzzi tubs for two, king beds and double vertical spa showers, as well as flat screen TVs with Dish Network in each room. Chrissie and Richard Spanton Jr. also decided to install a mini spa and a bar/game room to the bed and breakfast to keep guests coming back. And Richard Spanton Jr. even got creative with themes for each room – he and his wife came up with the Western Room, 1850s Barn Room, 1850s Limestone Room, Victorian Room, Walnut Room, Apple Cider Room and Wine Cellar Room.

With all the renovations and additions that Richard Spanton Jr. and his family made to the building, the Copperstone Inn now spans more than 8,000 square feet. The inn is intended to give the comfortable feeling of home with lush décor and antique furnishings. Richard Spanton Jr., along with his wife Chrissie and mother Saundra, who share in the duties of running the Copperstone Inn, say it is the most luxurious bed and breakfast in all of Rockton.

Richard Spanton Jr. has never been content to work on one project at a time. Although he gives a great deal of concentration to his work with Mastercraft Exteriors, he and his family are extremely excited to be devoting their time to this new bed and breakfast.
