This is our second time staying at the Blue Breeze. It’s perfect for our needs, located very close to lovely downtown Wauconda and in a quiet neighborhood. It’s always very clean, offers up nice little amenities (toiletries, assortment of coffees, etc.) and Jon is quick to respond to any questions. We look forward to returning!

A Comfortable Stay

We had a good experience. The property was exceptionally clean, which we appreciated the most. Thoughtful touches like towels, teas, coffee, and other small comforts made it feel welcoming and cozy. It was a good fit for our family of three, and we’d definitely stay again.

Family Wedding in Woodstock

Wished we could've spent more time in this darling home! Family in nearby town so really just a place to sleep and change clothes, lol. We were very comfortable, neighborhood was peaceful, and house had everything we could have needed! Grabbed a bite at Slyce, just down Main St. Delicious! Communication with host was unparalleled. Would love to rebook!

Cozy family cottage

This cozy little house was perfect for us. The 1 and 5 year olds shared a room (we had plenty of room for our travel crib) while the 3-year-old enjoyed a big bed to herself. The master was spacious, with a closet and dresser for those who like to settle in. The kitchen was tight for dining, but it was still suitable and we were grateful there were enough chairs for our whole family. Plenty of amenities to make the house comfortable (fans, towels, toys, beach towels, coffee condiments) with nice furniture and decent beds.Highly recommend for families or seniors, on account of the single-story layout.

The house is just as lovely as the photos and felt warm and welcoming when we arrived. The premises are clean and well appointed. Everything is well maintained. On a couple occasions we needed to communicate with Jon and he was prompt and responsive to our needs and questions. The location is very convenient to restaurants and shops. There is plenty of parking space. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe. We would definitely stay again.

Thought of everything

The property was booked by me for some volunteers at an event. I didnt stay ther personally but they said "Nice place, sweet people for leaving water, oatmeal and snacks. Even left dog cookies and dog toys. The owners thought of everything." From my point of view, the only thing that could improve was that check out details could be sent earlier. The volunteers told me they couldnt find them and it wasnt until after they checked out that I saw the email that said where to find the instructions. If that came a day earlier i could have passed it on so I hope they did everything necessary.
