Host was so sweet, the property was very clean and comfortable. It included everything we needed to have a great weekend. We were close to a lot and were able to fit in a lot of fun activities in the area. Would definitely stay here again if I ever come back to IL.

Words cannot summarize how great our stay was! I don’t say that lightly. We appreciate your hospitality, attention to detail, and kind spirits. It’s rare to meet good people these days, and you two are absolutely part of that “good folks” group. Proximity to establishments:- Micro Brewery within blocks- Genesse Theatre less than a ten minute walk- Quite -Safe/Secure - Full amenities And the list goes on..All in all, the owners made our trip special, memorable, and meaningful. We can’t thank you enough and will 100% be back. Regards,

First and foremost, Brenda was the most amazing host anyone could ask for. The unit was not only clean as can but she goes way over and beyond to provide whatever you may need for your stay. My wife must have said 100x how cute the place was and the host was. We are actually looking for another event at the Genesee Theater just so we can stay here again and also visit Nightshade and Darks, an amazing bar with the best old fashioneds ever. Thank you Brenda!!! You go above and beyond.
