About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Welcome to Grandma's House! I'd love to host your family&friends! 2 night min!

Enjoy over 2,018 sq ft of living space with a very large front screened sitting porch, large rooms, high ceilings and beautiful woodwork. Spacious and open. Escape your busy life and unwind at Grandma's house in the quiet and quaint historic town of Dixon, IL! A piano is in the home as well as wifi, cabl tv, dvd players, cards, games, DVDs and books. Fishing and boat enthusiasts can take a short 3-block stroll to behold the breathtaking views of the Rock River dam and waterfront. Located only 0.8 miles away is our adorable downtown where you can explore quality retail shops, a charming bookstore, bakeries, a fine art gallery, wine shop, multiple fine dining restaurants and Heritage Crossing on the Riverfront. Grandmas is within three blocks of a grocery store, drug store, city park, the YMCA, many restaurants, a liquor store and a short walk to Dixons bike and hiking path which leads to beautiful Lowell Park.... The home has 3 bedrooms, two queen beds, one full bed, two pull out queen couch beds, one couch, a queen blow up mattress, one twin blow up mattress, a pack and play and crib is available. Also, I will allow therapy dogs with an additional deposit.
