A spacious and updated historic home close to everything the area has to offer. Celebrate graduation from the nearby Great Lakes Naval Base or visit Great America and all the other exciting things Gurnee has to offer.
A modern and fully equipped kitchen, with a coffee bar, can accommodate all of your culinary needs. The dining room seats 10 while the adjoining breakfast room can seat another 10 guests. Highchair and PacknPlay here too.

Our large historic home has many unique spaces to enjoy. The large living room has plenty of seating for conversation or game nights. The adjoining family has a big comfortable sofa where you can relax and watch TV. There’s a unique library that offers a baby grand piano and a nice place to get some quiet time with a book. There’s a large dining room that seats 10 to celebrate any family event as well as a more casual breakfast room to enjoy coffee and donuts in the morning. This room also seats 10. There’s a fully equipped kitchen for even the most discerning chef.

PLEASE NOTE: a photographic/video inventory will be performed of every room and linen closet before and after every guest visit. Unfortunately a prior guest decided to take some of our personal belongings with them. Thank you for your understanding.
