Charming and Clean

We had a lovely stay in Elaine's home. This house was head to toe charm and incredibly clean. The bathrooms and kitchen were fantastically stocked. We used the charming cottage for a girls reading getaway and it did not disappoint!

Fun stay!

We felt welcome and had fun visiting Starved Rock. It’s about a 15 minute drive to the lodge so not bad! The kids enjoyed the ice cream place down the street and our senior dog enjoyed the treats that were left for us. Thank you for a lovely time!

Great house!

Really enjoyed our stay while visiting family in La Salle. The host was very responsive and kind which made the entire process so easy. The house was clean and well equipped. We all felt very comfortable there and will definitely be staying there again next time we visit.

Cozy house that is well maintained

We had a great experience with this property. This was my first time renting a home rather than staying in a hotel. I was very pleased. There were three adults and a baby in our group and having a living room to hang out in and a full service kitchen to prepare food in was simply wonderful. The property is very well maintained and delightfully clean!
