Aneta’s place was spotless, cozy, and felt instantly homey. Everything was so clean and well-kept, and she was incredibly attentive and quick to respond. We had everything we could possibly need and were completely comfortable the entire stay. Truly loved our time there.

Amazing!! The townhouse is clean, spacious and equipped with everything you need!! The grandchildren loved all the indoor and outdoor games and toys! The adults appreciated the cleanliness and convenient location to Starved Rock and a neighboring resort with a water park, mini putt and playground. It is the perfect choice for a family stay!!!

Incredible Accommodations

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The home was incredibly clean and beautiful, and it was in a perfect location for our adventures at Starved Rock and Mattheissen Park. Check-in was super simple and the host was easy to communicate with before our arrival. Overall, it was a fabulous stay.
