The Space:
Our home has a small entryway area, after coming up three small stairs from outdoors, with plenty of hooks to hang coats and store footwear, along with a full size dining room.

Our living area has plenty of places to sit along with a writing desk, and is right off the full, stocked kitchen ready for you to make fantastic meals with all your family and friends. The full bathroom and laundry machines are located on the first floor level.

The couch opposite the fireplace has a full mattress that can be folded out into the living area, with sheets and other linens on the shelves down the hall from the TV.

Upstairs on the loft area is a king sized bed for you to enjoy, along with a large walk in closet, full size mirror, writing desk, and rocking chair to enjoy. A crib can be assembled if needed!

A fan is supplied to help deal with the summer heat, along with a separate AC unit located on the upstairs level window. Gas fireplace available for use during the colder months.

The backyard space has concrete steps down to the water, along with many areas to sit and enjoy the view, with the option to sit or lay down in the shade of the large trees, or on the generously sized deck. Gas grill is available for use in the backyard. The yard is fully fenced, but please note that out towards the water is a rocky outcrop, plus the fence out in front is about three feet high.

For any long term stays please reach out if you would like anything adjusted, we are in the area a lot and can set up the place differently if that is preferred!

Guest Access:
You and your friends and family will have full access to our home, backyard and front yard. Please be mindful of our neighbors! They are all very friendly, but prefer having their personal space respected.

A unique code to our front door will be provided to you right before your stay, which is reset after every guest.

The Neighborhood:
Welcoming and loving neighborhood. A mile from downtown Kankakee, and two miles to Olivet Nazarene. Lots of great places to hang out and eat nearby, our favorites include Stefari Cafe for coffee and tea, Rigo's Place for the best seafood dinner, and Jaenicke's Root Beer Stand for a quick bite. Grapes and Hops is a wonderful wine bar with more than just wine. If you would like any questions of any sort please feel free to send us a message!

We are also a one home away from a riverside park with benches to sit at, a full sized park for kids, basketball hoops, and plenty of room to play with your furry friend(s)!
