Perfect for family of 4
Elaine was great and the place was very clean. We stayed with our two daughters both under 5, and they loved it. The played all over the house but really liked the play area and spent time coloring too. Fire pit was great for hot dogs and s‘ mores (good idea to stop at Casey’s before and get a couple bundles of firewood) after a long day of hiking at Starved Rock. Perfect location on a quiet street and easy to get to the park about 10 minutes away. We most definitely will stay again when we go back!

Happy and content
Thank you for the great stay at this house. It was great to be able to bring our pups and they could just play and roam around in the back yard while we enjoyed the weather and family time together.. I also loved how well stocked the house was for the guests and puppies with the extra touch amenities. If we are ever back in the area we will definitely stay again. I would also recommend staying here.

Great little house
House is cute and quirky with everything we needed for our too short trip to hike at Starved Rock. Outdoor space was our favorite and something we look for in a rental. Host supplied lots of great info on the area which was helpful. Would definitely rent again!!

The property was located perfectly in walking distance if you wanted to downtown Lasalle. Very close to all the hiking trails less then 10 minutes away. Elaine responds very quickly to questions or concerns. Clean and cozy. It was a quiet area. Us girls just wanted to relax and not have any schedules. We laughed and had a great time. I would stay again if in the area.. Elaine was a great hostess.
