perfect place to gather- large dining table, open kitchen, many bedrooms, large back yard. Close to town and the parks. Great place for our large group of 9
This stay was for my birthday with family.this location was awesome everything you need is in the house. Plenty of room for guests. Beds were so comfortable anf roomy.
A group of 7 girls stayed here for the weekend and it was a perfect accommodation. We loved having three bathrooms between us all and we used the kitchen to the fullest. It is a beautiful house and we all loved the decor. We had such a lovely time staying here at the Ford House. Thank you for everything!
Everything was what was needed for a friends getaway. Close to town for dinners, close to Starved Rock for hiking. Easy instructions for arrival and departure.
The home was cozy and perfect for a gathering of extended family. Bathrooms and sleeping options were wonderful! House was fully stocked with everything we possibly needed. We would love to come back! Nice welcome note and treats made it even more special.
This house was perfect for my family! My sister and I brought our spouses and our father to LaSalle to visit extended family. Both of our parents were born and raised here, and we have many wonderful memories here. This home was located perfectly between both of our grandparents homes, the church we attended while here and the grocery store we went to. To make the visit even better was this house. It is so charming and cozy, and we all fell in love with it the minute we arrived. It has so much character with modern amenities, and it was clean, comfortable, in a quiet neighborhood. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen amazing, and the bathrooms were lovely. We will absolutely stay here again if given the chance. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
We had four families staying with our kids and this was a great stay! I wish the backyard was enclosed for our littles, but it was a great space, with games and space for everyone. Good access to Starved Rock!
House was clean and stocked with all the dishes, supplies, towels we needed. A short drive to Starved Rock for hiking and a nice sized back yard for the kids to play. Would definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful stay enjoying this lovely house, the porch and many of the local options. We were close to Starved Rock State Park, Utica and walking distance to downtown LaSalle which we did for all of our dinners. Kitchen was well-equipped, beds were very comfortable and everything that was needed was available.
Perfect home away from home for our visit to the Starved Rock area while attending a family wedding. Beautiiful home, extremely comfortably bedding. Will return next time we're in the area!!♡
Our stay was comfortable and Elaine was an awesome host! This house’s history has been beautifully persevered but also nice modern amenities added for a perfect blend of comfort and astetic!
Great place, especially if you are fond of old houses! Very clean and comfortable. It seemed to have everything one would need (towels, dishes, soaps, etc). Check in process smooth, appreciated the expectations for leaving so I could go right down the list. Also appreciated the list of food options.
We came here to stay for the weekend for hiking and the starved rock 1/2 marathon. The house is very clean and charming. The beds are very comfortable. Elaine is a wonderful host; great communication and ideas for places to go in the area. Nice back outdoor space.
