Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
My wife and I own a number of condos, villas and cabins mostly at water park resorts in the midwest and Florida. Although the resorts do a nice job of renting these units for us, we like the pro-active approach of advertising as well. Contact us for not only this place, but for great deals at other locations we have as well. You can find one of our places at Blue Harbor water park resort in Sheboygan, WI on VRBO #243573, and another at Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells VRBO #263316.
Why the Owner Chose Utica
Starved Rock has always been a great Chicago area destination. The hiking doesn't get any better within 90 minutes of Chicago. Combine the great outdoors, with the fun amenities indoors, and you'll see why we purchased this fantastic cabin.
