We rented this home for our family in support of our son's graduation from UIUC. The home met or exceeded our expectations! Very comfortable and nicely appointed (including a pool table!); perfect for our ten guests, with plenty of room to spread out, dine, visit, laugh, and sleep. Highly recommended!

Beautiful old house that has been remodeled but retained a lot of original woodwork. Was perfect for a large group of adult cousins, one human child and two fur babies (dogs) while we were in town for our aunt’s funeral. The dog-friendly amenities- an indoor/outdoor enclosure for the dogs- especially worked very well! The upstairs deck off the second floor is also especially lovely. And we had plenty of room for everyone to have a bed. We had two slight issues when there but Megan was very responsive -by which I mean immediatel responses to my texts - and fixed them right away. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Modernized Home

We had 8 adults stay for an extended weekend and the house was perfect for our needs. We walked to a couple nearby places for lunch and dinner. There is plenty of places in the house to gather, talk, eat, and play games.

We were so impressed with the house and all it had to offer! We were so bummed the weather didn’t cooperate so we could use the awesome deck and front patio. Will definitely stay again if we play up in this area in the future!!

Amazing Stay at The White House

Our friends and I traveled down to Champaign-Urbana to catch a UI Football Game and we couldn't have asked for an amazing house to stay at. The property was clean (IMMACULATE), spacious, had all the amenities we needed to cook breakfast in the morning and fix ourselves some late night snacks in the evening. If we were to do this again I would not think twice about booking this house again for us! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Well appointed home in great neighborhood

Loved our stay here - main floor had a lovely layout which was great for extended family to drop by - pool table in basement was a big plus for the young adults from wedding party who dropped by. Deck on 2nd floor was also a nice hangout spot. Beds were comfy and 3rd floor master was especially nice. Megan responded in a most timely way to a question we had. Would highly recommend!

Tons of space!

We split the rental of this property with some family friends for a weekend kids sports tournament. The location was a quick drive from UIUC campus, shops, and restaurants. There was plenty of space for all ten of us to relax, and the pool table was a HUGE hit with the teenage boys! Beds were extremely comfortable and the whole place was nicely furnished. We hope to return in warmer weather so we can make use of the awesome rooftop deck!

We had a large group of alumni who returned to campus along with some of their spouses. The house was plenty of space even for 8-10 people. You could opt to walk or use ride shares to get to and from campus - we did both. It’s also about a 5 minute walk to downtown Champaign. The host was very responsive and even found and shipped a forgotten sweatshirt to one of the guests. While we didn’t use the basement space and pool table, it would have been fun to if we had a longer stay. The house was very clean, offered amenities (many towels & shower supplies), and would be one I’d look to stay at again.

This was a BEAUTIFUL house to stay in for our trip! Very clean, comfortable beds, and plenty of amenities (shampoo, conditioner, lotion, cooking spices, coffee, etc.). If we travel to Champaign again, we will definitely try to book this house a 2nd time. We didn't travel with a dog, but I have never seen a VRBO house that is so pet friendly! They had a kennel in the garage with a runout to the fenced in backyard. Perfect for traveling with a pet.The master bedroom and bath is on the 3rd floor of the house is gorgeous! We had my husband's grandparents stay with us, and the only downfall to the house was that there was not a main floor bedroom. However, his grandparents were able to manage the steps ok because there was a handrail and a landing to split the stairs, so it wasn't too bad.Overall, A house to stay in for our trip.
