About this property

Historic Gem / Steps to Main St. & Mississippi River / 3-Season Room

Experience a 125-year-old historic home with modern comfort. Just steps from downtown Savanna’s Main Street and the Mississippi River, you’re within walking distance of restaurants, bars, shops, and the riverfront—and a 6-minute drive to the state park. Fully private 2BR/1BA main-floor unit with king and queen beds (plus rollaway twin upon request), full kitchen, WiFi, central air, washer/dryer, 3-season room, and easy street parking.

THE SPACE:

The unit features two large bedrooms with room-darkening shades—one with a king bed and the other with a queen. A twin rollaway is available upon request for a $20 fee, passed entirely to our cleaner. The bathroom features a single shower (no tub). A washer and dryer are also available in the unit.

The fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, stove/oven, toaster, Keurig and Cuisinart coffee makers, cookware, and countertop seating for casual meals. The dining area includes a dining table and bar cabinet.

The living room offers comfortable seating and a Smart TV. A classic galley-style 3-season room is attached to the unit and provides a bright additional space to relax (please note, it is accessed by exiting the front door). A built-in workstation is located in the main hallway.

The home offers easy street parking and is well maintained with a strong focus on cleanliness. While there are two upstairs units in the building, this space is completely private with its own entrance and no shared interior spaces.

GUEST ACCESS:

Street parking is easy and typically available directly in front of the house.

Guests have exclusive access to the entire main unit and the three-season room.

Check-in is at 1 p.m. and checkout is at noon. We’re happy to accommodate early arrivals or late departures when our schedule allows.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:

This is a self check-in and check-out property with a unique, electronic door code provided before arrival. We are available by phone or messaging throughout your stay and are happy to help with anything you need.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:

Savanna is located in rural Illinois along the Mississippi River. With the natural setting comes local wildlife, including insects, deer, snakes, stray cats, and other small animals typical of the area.

While the unit can accommodate up to five guests, it is best suited for four or fewer. The unit includes one king bed and one queen bed. A twin rollaway is available upon request for a $20 fee, passed directly to our cleaner. When used, it is typically set up in the second bedroom with the queen bed, which will make the room feel tighter.

We can help coordinate local partners for optional add-ons such as flower arrangements or baby essentials (cribs, strollers, toys, etc.) delivered prior to arrival.

This home is well suited for longer stays, with discounted rates automatically applied for extended bookings.

A comprehensive area guide is provided with recommendations for restaurants, shops, and things to do during your stay.
