Raised house on the Illinois River in Hardin, IL with amazing river views. The main bedroom is extremely large and can easily accommodate 4 people. The living room is nice, and the kitchen was well stocked. This would be an excellent place to stay if you own a boat and plan to spend time on the water. The house is in easy walking distance to a restaurant. We are planning to stay her again in the fall. The host was great and we did not have any issues.
