Our first time in Illinois and I’m so glad I came across this home!! The communication was absolutely top notch! My grown kids kept saying this house is so cool (along with my husband)! The house was clean, easy to get to and from places, and honestly just the fact that the host was so easy to work with made it that much better! The hot tub, the sauna, the marg machine, the games, the dock, the golf… I mean the list goes on!! Definitely highly recommend!

Our group came to town for a baseball tournament and stayed here to relax. This was an amazing house with lots of activities inside and outside. The host was very tentative to details and very responsive.

Home away from home. Highly recommend.

What can I say. Would definitely stay again. This was an amazing place to stay. Everything you need is here. Owners provided thoughtful touches throughout and setup for arrival. Beautiful views and outdoor space to hang out. I don’t believe we even turned on the tv. Only concern I would mention is if you have littles or pets, bring a free standing safety gate for the spiral stairs.

Such an amazing property!

We absolutely loved this property. Alex was so easy to work with and very prompt with his replies. He had everything (and more) that we needed down to small details like coffee for the Keurig, firewood for the firepit and fireplace, and all the tools and supplies for the grill, Blackstone and smoker. I've been to places that have similar amenities but usually have to end up bringing or buying some things that we need. Not here - it was all provided! Also he was very accommodating and we were able to check in earlier to help us unload before we headed out that first day. The property was so quiet and peaceful. When we were there we spent a lot of time just sitting on the patio looking over the river and enjoying the outdoors. Inside there was no shortage of things to do as well. Would hands down stay here again without hesitation. Such a wonderful place!
