We could not have chosen a better location for our visit to Starved Rock State Park! Our loft apartment was above a commercial business front that is currently empty. The rest of the street was filled with restaurants, breweries, shops and a winery. The block was blocked off for outdoor seating for all of the restaurants and bars. There was music at both ends of the street on the weekend nights. All we had to do to have fun was walk downstairs! The apartment itself was just as lovely in person as in the photos. There were plenty of towels, dishes, blankets and anything else we might need. I highly recommend this rental!

Great spot, really cozy, updated and clean. My wife loved it. The one window by the bathroom could use a curtain though, for further privacy.

My cousin was getting married at Starved Rock Lodge, and I really wasn’t excited with the price to stay there and 2 night minimum. Searched VRBO and immediately loved this place. I originally booked for Fri and Sat night, but ended up having to change it to Sat and Sun because my son had prom. The owner couldn’t get the dates changed through the app, but she blocked an extra day off so I could stay Sat and Sunday:) It was a bit hard to find the unit because there was no longer a spice shop downstairs and I arrived at night, couldn’t see the addresses. The original brick walls and wood floors with modern appliances and upgrades… such a gorgeous place, with amazing natural light. Literally steps from a few bars, a coffee shop, winery and restaurants. The day I left they were closing off the block of 2nd street for outdoor dining and entertainment. I can’t wait to go back for a second stay! The location and space were fantastic. Highly recommend!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Everything you want is right at your fingertips.

We enjoyed our trip and the location of this place is perfect to have dinner and enjoy the small town after a hike at starved rock. Trendy decor and cozy fireplace! I wish we would have known what the check in process was sooner because we were getting nervous we didn’t have anywhere to go. I know we couldn’t check in until a specific time but we have always had someone reach out and verify the stay and details with us beforehand. Overall we would book this again though- it was a nice trip!

This place is awesome looking. Decor is well done, location is fantastic. The bed was comfy, and loved the shower. Thanks so much for having us!

This is a very comfortable place to stay. Everything is very well appointed; open and airy; a couples shower(!); restaurants, winery and bars on same street block. We will be back! Highly recommend!!

Perfect spot to enjoy Starved Rock and return for a meal and coffee just outside your door!
