Kick back in the living room with a 65" TV, NEX Playground, and bean bag that magically turn into an extra full bed (plus an airbed for bonus snoozing).

Arriving after dark? Just a little heads-up that our area has limited street lighting, so the neighborhood can be quite dark at night. I’ll make sure to have the exterior lights and a few lights inside the home on for you, so it’s easier to spot the house and you’ll have a warm, welcoming arrival
Our lawn service provider typically comes by to mow on Mondays or Tuesdays (weather permitting—if it rains, the service is rescheduled to the next dry day). We would also appreciate it if guests could park in front of the house during these days, if possible.
Trash pickup in our area is on Thursdays. No action needed from guests (FYI the truck can come as early as 6 AM so if you happen to hear a little noise early Thursday morning, that’s just the garbage truck stopping by).
We provide high density orthopedic-style firm mattresses
We have 3 actively recording external cameras for everyone’s safety (1 in the Driveway and 1 for each outside door), as well as a noise decibel monitoring device in the property. Please refer to Safety & Property>Safety Devices found at the bottom of the listing page for details.
Children under the age of 12 have to be supervised by an adult in the game room at all times
Rockford is known as the Forest City - nature is everywhere! While we maintain the property with regular professional pest control, the occasional insect can still make its way indoors—especially during seasonal changes. If you happen to notice anything during your stay, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always happy to help and can quickly provide solutions.
We understand that pets are part of the family, and we welcome 2 dogs in this house ($25 per pet, per night). Please note that at this time we’re only able to accommodate dogs.
We want to make sure this property is a good fit for you. Please read through our HOUSE RULES + SAFETY & PROPERTY at bottom of the page under "THINGS TO KNOW" for further information.
