Mayor's Manor - with everything you need in a homebase get away. Pet friendly.
The open concept of this property with large deck, privacy fenced in yard, and large 1 car garage (it's actually a 2 car, but only 1 stall is available) make it ideal for almost any occasion. Whether you are in town for a wedding, fishing tournament, hunting season, Bald Eagle watching, visiting Nauvoo (5 minute flight if you're a crow or 30 minute drive in a car), or just enjoying one of the greatest states in the nation, this property in historic Montrose will not disappoint. It's physically located walking distance from several parks, ice cream shop, local watering hole and eatery, and boat ramp.
There are security cameras located in the garage, the fenced in yard, and under the garage overhang looking at the backdoor and deck area. Curious what they see? The monitor for the cameras is in the house and available to view live. Please do not select "alarm" on the cameras. It is loud and the the neighbors won't appreciate it. There are also 2 cameras in the basement pointing straight down at the sump pumps in case it rains to see if there is water in the basement. The only basement on the block of a 1910 home leaks. If the cameras are unacceptable, I can remove them during your stay. Two of the other cameras on the monitor are physically located at 300 Spruce Street in a gymnasium.
Garage: Although it is a 2 stall there is only 1 stall available for you to park. I store a few items (backhoe attachment, ATV, etc) in the other stall of the garage I may need access to during your stay. If so, I will reach out to let you know and I will enter from the alleyway. You won't even know I'm there.
Kayaks: Please let me know when you book your stay if you plan to use the complimentary kayaks. I will want to make sure they are in the garage along with appropriate life jackets.
Sleeping 7: There are 2 queen beds, 2 twin beds, a full size futon, and only 1 bathroom. The house can accommodate 7, but it is tight. Plan accordingly.
