About the host

Why they chose this property
Nestled in a covering of trees central within the town, the Bello Reserve neighborhood of Rockford will give you easy access to town amenities while having unique coves to explore across the property. The home backs up against Keith Creek and sits right next to the Rockford Arboretum, filled with stunning spring blooming trees, summer greens and fall colors (separate from the Klehm Arboretum and Botanic Gardens in town) -- in addition to the recently planted small 17 tree orchard at the home.
