Great place to stay near St. Charles/Geneva. Will definitely stay again next time we visit. Plenty of room, great view, super easy access to west suburbs, North Ave./Randal Rd,/25/31, but tucked away from the hustle and bustle etc. Host was great, respected our privacy. Super hot shower!
Right on the Fox River.
Plenty of space for a large family. Lots of Knick-knacks so best suited for ages 7+.
Quiet street, very little traffic.

A new favorite rental

The house was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The downstairs area was the perfect size for me and my husband. We enjoyed the multiple options for sitting and watching the river (enclosed back porch, or back yard). Good birding, too. The neighborhood is quiet and we enjoyed walking across the nearby bridge to the greenway trail on the other side of the river. We hope to stay again next time we visit the area!

About the host

Hosted by LUCI TOLEDO

Host profile image
I got this house for families that just want to get together and relax. To sit by the river during the day and then that time enjoy a really nice fire pit. It's really about connecting with family members and getting back to enjoying life. There are so many reasons why I do not allow parties I hope you understand but with only 3 hours between reservations . It doesn't leave much time to deal with any damages extra trash or problems for the neighborhood

Why they chose this property

Love the location! They are two very nice parks within a half a block from the house. The police station is across the dam which is only a block from the house. There is an outdoor pavilion that holds summer concerts with the splash pad that's a block from the house. The house sits in the perfect area where you'll find really restaurants. With a short drive you're near Elgin St Charles -Geneva -Batavia. You'r about a 45 minute drive from Chicago

What makes this property unique

What makes my proper unique I believe is the wildlife and fishing. You can sit in the backyard and see American bald eagles. Different types of Hawks. And all my guests really enjoy telling me the stories about the fish that got away
