The home was beautiful and comfortable. Although it could sleep many more, it was perfect for the 3 of us! We had family and friends over for a cookout one day. Plenty of parking, plenty of seating on the patio that overlooked the river. It is conveniently located to anyplace we needed to go...Machesney Park, Loves Park, Rockford, Rockton, etc. It was a quick drive to and from the Rockford Int'l Airport. Kristy was a wonderful host and quickly responded to every inquiry! We loved having Tads on the Rock within walking distance! Good music on the weekends. Good food, always. And right on the river. Thank you, Kristy!!

Thank you Kristy for adjusting to our crazy last minute schedule changes. The neighbors are all friendly as well :). We look forward to coming back for a getaway in the future.

Large Great Room with a river view

We were happy to be able to take a vacation with our dogs. Although the property wasn't fully fenced in, it had a very large yard -- which was great for the kids & dogs to play. The great room was indeed large with some nice views of the river. The amenities were also very nice -- lots of supplies and the breakfast fixings were a nice touch.

Wonderful experience right from the beginning. We arrived earlier than anticipated and Kristy and staff worked to get us in quickly. Her home was warm and inviting for us all, even our pets! Little touches like dog treats, bowls and a spacious area to play made it perfect for us.Each bathroom was equally perfect. Our son loved the jacuzzi styled tub for relaxing after a long day of walking and adventures. While, I enjoyed the walk in shower, being disabled, It was a godsend. Three shower heads, one of them being a rainfall, my favorite. Cherry blossom toiletries was a wonderful addition.We enjoyed eating al fresco every day after cooking each meal on the Blackstone. (Thanks, Nick) We spent a great deal of time relaxing and enjoying the beautiful river and nature. Sitting in the sunshine, enjoying our meals and relaxing under the overhang when it got too sunny was absolutely perfect.A beautiful walking and biking path in the park close by was enjoyed every day. Anderson's Japanese garden was the highlight of our visit. It's breathtakingly beautiful and I can't wait to come back every season to enjoy its beauty. Their Fresco garden restaurant was also a wonderful addition. Having lunch outside and enjoying the wonderful food was amazing. Especially the strawberry cheesecake, which I highly recommend! It is made in house, and it's spectacular!I just can't say enough for things about our experience. I absolutely recommend staying at Kristy's, you won't be disappointed.

Comfort and Convenience

The property manager was very kind and helpful to us. We were in Rockford for an emergency trip due to family illness. It was a real comfort to return to property each night to a warm fire and cup of hot tea.
