Tranquility at RiverZen

Your pristine, quiet, river view getaway awaits. Located right on the Illinois River in the Heritage Harbor resort, RiverZen offers private, uninterrupted panoramic views of the river from multiple decks. Private and quiet.

This fully stocked villa features two ample sized bedrooms with a king size bed, a trundle bed in the other bedroom and a brand new queen sleeper sofa on the main level. The open floor plan has all the comforts of home; a fully equipped kitchen, gas fireplace, and two and half bathrooms to accommodate all your guests.

Some amenities and activities for winter include, eagles and other bird watching right off one of the decks, trail hiking/walking, waterfall ice climbing, craft beer and wine tasting, town festivals like Ottawa's Christkindlmarket, fishing, viewing barges on the river, fire pits, kite flying, and much more. A 3-minute walking distance to the marina where there is a playground, 2 swimming pools (summer), a tiki bar and the Red Dog Grill for dinner and cocktails. Adjacent to the resort is the I&M Canal trail for running, biking and cross-country skiing. Only minutes from Matthiessen, Illini, Buffalo, Starved Rock and the not as visited Dayton Bluffs Preserve Parks. Minutes from downtown. Quiet, relaxing, safe, and extra clean! Please read the reviews. So many of our guests are better writers than I am and you can also see their perspective:)
