We stayed while visiting Starved Rock. Elaine was an excellent host! The house was darling and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay including:-
Great place to stay a weekend of family hiking in the State Parks. House was very enjoyable to relax in the evenings, read books, play games, and watch a family movie.
We had a great spring break stay and loved the house! The kids had so much fun playing air hockey and ping pong, there were treats for our pup, and we had plenty of room to spread out and relax after a long day of hiking. Also a great location- we had ice cream every day! Our kiddos insist we only stay here when we visit going forward- so much fun!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this lovely cottage. Everything was thoughtfully arranged and the location made it easy to travel to Starved Rock and Ottawa while enjoying the best of LaSalle.
House was very clean. Great location for what we had planned. House had character. The beds were a bit too firm for our liking. Truly enjoyed our stay.
Fantastic home base for exploring the state parks. Very clean, well maintained, comfortable beds and thoughtful touches. Loved being able to bring our dog and really appreciated the sweet welcome for us and our pet left by the owner. Would stay again.
Location convenient to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks with great, scenic trails; close to great restaurants (Verrucchi's, Uptown Grill, Country House); nice amenities in the house (games, books, air hockey, darts); inside is bigger than it looks from the front--plenty of room and comfort for this family
of 6! Great place to stay when in this area!
