About the host

Hosted by Lori Reavis

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Lori! I live nearby in Roscoe and have been a licensed REALTOR in Illinois and Wisconsin for over 30 years. My passion for real estate comes from a deep-seated belief that a home is a true expression of who we are, and I find great joy in helping others find their perfect space.

I’ve been a Vrbo host since 2023, and it has quickly become the most fun I’ve ever had. I currently manage two properties located right next door to each other, each uniquely themed to offer a distinct, fun-filled experience. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful getaway or a vibrant home base, I love sharing these spaces with my guests. I truly hope you’ll choose one of my homes for your next stay—come on over, settle in, and relax!

Why they chose this property

I grew up on this very street, spending my childhood here surrounded by my cousins, who lived here as well. It was a formative time in my life filled with love and endless fun. Although my family members have since moved away, my father is incredibly proud that I chose to return to this neighborhood and share this special place with others.

I chose this neighborhood because of its quiet, welcoming atmosphere and the wonderful sense of community. It offers the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility, providing a peaceful retreat while still keeping you close to everything you need. I personally enjoy the natural beauty of the area and the friendly neighbors who make this such a lovely place to stay.

What makes this property unique

This property stands out because of the meticulous, personal attention to detail infused into every room. Unlike a standard rental, this home was designed with the intention of providing a soulful, comfortable, and memorable guest experience that reflects the care I put into my own home.

As a dedicated host, this was my first project in Machesney Park, and I am proud to share that it sits right next door to my 2nd property. Having poured my heart, love, and genuine passion into both homes, I have created spaces that feel warm, inviting, and truly cared for. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share these homes with you and find so much joy in knowing that guests can create their own lasting memories here.
