4 of my friends & I gathered at Pine View for a week to celebrate our 75th birthdays and lifelong friendships. The house was beautiful and elegantly appointed, all the bedrooms were very quiet and we had several comfortable seating areas for conversation. The location was very convenient to restaurants, a major grocery chain and entertainment venues. The couple of times I had a question, the host answered very promptly. I would highly recommend this house and host!

Wonderful space for family!

A family gathering of 15+ with ages 5 to 78 - this home provided ample space to hang and catch up. We enjoyed the short walk to the paddle boats and lake views!

Weekend visit with son at SIU

This property was wonderful and a short drive to the SIU campus. The property is in excellent condition, hot tub worked great, and it is in a beautiful neighborhood with a nice community lake. We visited too early in the season to enjoy the community pool, but it looks very nice. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Lovely home!

House is beautiful and very clean! Our only suggestion would be to have mirrors in the upstairs bedrooms to help with the shared upstairs bathroom. Otherwise great!

Everything was awesome!!! Plenty of towels and bathroom supplies. There were 10 of us and we had plenty of anything we needed. I gave a 5 star on everything. I couldn't say enough great things about the house and the host. We plan on coming back to stay again.

Pine Manor Estates

I rented this house because I had family coming in from England and I wanted the rest of the family to meet them. The house was beautiful. No complaints. The pool would have been beautiful but it needs refinishing badly. Four of the kids in our group cut themselves on the stairs because the tiles were falling off and sharp. One of the kids had a large piece of his heel torn off. To finish it all off, I got an email saying they were keeping my security deposit because we had an unauthorized pet in the house. The manager said she was in the house and saw all the dog hair herself. I don't know what she saw but not one time did we have any pets of any kind in that house. I even took pictures after everyone left just to be sure. In the end she returned my security deposit, but to say we had dog hair everywhere when there was never a pet in that house is a blatant lie. I was going to rent from this place next summer but I think I'll pass now. I can't trust that they will be honest with me. I will post every picture that was taken at that house and anybody will be hard pressed to find an animal of any kind in or out of that house.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 Oct 2022
We are refinishing the pool now and closed it early to do so. We were unable to locate any sharp edges on the steps but certainly take any possibility of injuries very seriously and have decided to refinish the steps as well as a pre-cautionary measure. We try to make certain that only our dog-friendly houses are used for pets so we can keep ALL guests at Pine Manor Estates happy as many have allergies to pets so those guests specifically request houses that never allow any dogs inside. After our conversation, I happily refunded your deposit and welcomed your family back to Pine Manor Estates as I felt confident we had clarified any misunderstandings from either side. For other prospective guests reading this review, just let me know if you want to bring your fur baby and I will gladly let you know which houses welcome your pets with open arms. As for the pool . . . it's going to be fantastic when it reopens next spring! Come on out and stay awhile!

This house had everything we needed! From crock pot to coffee pot to hot tub towels, we did not need to pack anything extra. Lived the king beds in all the rooms, and plenty of pillows. Close to the SIUC campus, loved the outdoor landscape which provided a beautiful back drop for graduation pictures.

Girls Weekend getaway

The women in my family met up for a weekend away. We had multiple generations in the same home and ALL said the same thing, it was even more beautiful in person. There was plenty of space for us to be together and relax on our own. All of the furniture was not only beautiful but comfortable. The beds were amazing. There were plenty of clean towels and linens. There were Pool towels for the hot tub and to take to pool that was a short walk across the street and provided floats, sunscreen and comfortable lounge chairs with beautiful view of lake and access to the paddle boats. I could not believe the amenities and price was shared by Multiple people made it less expensive than a hotel in a much more private space. We did go to out to dinner and a few wine trails but once we arrived we didn’t want to leave the property. We hope to be back next year
