Rhiannon we had such a great time during our stay! The home had everything we needed — super comfortable, clean, and well-stocked. Mornings with coffee by the river was so peaceful, and we loved ending the day with a cozy bonfire at night. We had family members that were showing their cars at Mayhem 11 so the car show was really fun. We went a couple of times to a very nice restaurant called Tacos Tequila in Bourbonnais. Had breakfast at a wonderful place called Momence Cafe. We were lucky to go to the Farmers Market in Momence and shop around . We also went into town to an awesome Plant store (everything plants). It was the perfect mix of relaxation and fun for our whole family. We’d definitely come back again!
