About this house rental
Location, Location, Location!! Welcome to our delightful two bedroom one bath bungalow located literally just steps away from all of the fabulous restaurants and shops on N. Prospect in Peoria Heights. We are also located just 5 minutes from US Route 150 and Interstate 74 and 10 minutes from downtown Peoria. If you want to be in the center of it all, book your stay here!
We have created a home away from home for our family and friends and now extend it to you! Each bedroom features a full size bed with designer bedding. In addition to this, there is a queen sofa pullout in the living room if needed. Our kitchen has everything you would need for a short or extended stay including a washer/dryer, stove, refrigerator, and microwave. We also have a Keurig coffee machine with the assorted accoutrements needed for a fresh brewed cup of coffee or tea. During your stay you are welcome to sit outside on our lovely covered porch and relax and enjoy the ambience of the charming neighborhood. We have a convenient parking spot in our driveway, and there is also plenty of additional street parking.
History of Our Street: Duryea Avenue is named after Charles Duryea who engineered the first American gasoline powered automobile. The Duryea bothers won America’s first car race with their car in 1895. Soon after that in 1898, Charles Duryea incorporated Duryea Manufacturing Co. in Peoria Heights, and one of his early vehicles can be found on display at the Peoria Riverfront Museum in downtown Peoria.

The house is a block off Main Street but quiet. The Main Street has several fun and good restaurants. The house is dated but very clean and has basics of everything needed. Comfortable bed. Hot water. Good air conditioning and heat. Pleasant stay

We didn’t even stay, the property was filthy, took a ton of pics, shared with Vrbo, never heard back from home owner. I have a listing with VRBO and they were completely useless as far as helping guest as well as getting in touch with the host. I am cancelling my listing with VRBO! Do Not Stay at this Property!!!’

Its a very small 2 bedroom house with 1 bathroom (in one of the bedrooms), kitchen and living room. Couch could stand to be replaced as it wasnt very comfortable. TV could also be replaced with larger screen. Its an okay stay for 1-2 night trip though.

We travelled here for a softball tournament with our 17year old. House is clean and within walking distance to nice restaurants and shopping. Layout of the house was quirky but it is an old home and to be expected. The only bathroom is in one of the bedrooms which makes sharing with a teenage girl difficult. But that’s just our family dynamic and no fault of the house LOL. House served its purpose and we had a good time there! Thanks for having us!

A little cottage in the city…such a treasure.
Our needs are simple, thus we wouldn’t change a thing.
Bedding and bath towels are luscious.
All was in good working order…furnace, hot water, etc (very important in my view especially since it snowed and the temp dropped dramatically during our stay).
Delightful 💝

This is our 2nd time to rent this house and it was just as great as the first time. The house is very clean and stocked with anything you might need. It's within easy walking distance to great restaurants and a good location overall. Ashley is awesome to work with and always helpful. We would definitely rent this home again.

My friend and I enjoyed our getaway weekend together. We didn't drive our cars all weekend and loved the walkability of the shops, restaurants, trails, coffee shop, and bakery. The house was cozy and warm, and it seemed like a very safe area for two females. It was a fun and relaxing getaway! We'd stay here again.

We enjoyed the location-all the restaurants and shops just up the street. The walk along Grandview Drive is not to be missed. Just a few blocks away! The house was cute and comfortable. Would stay here again. Thank you Ashley.

Home is in a good location to stores and restaurants. Surprised there were no closets in the two bedrooms. Armoire in living room. Washer and dryer were nice to have. Beds were too small for me and my husbands liking, so we used both bedrooms. Overall experience was fine and served our purpose.

Great house and fantastic location to enjoy Peoria Heights.
We loved our 4 night stay at this great house in the heart of Peoria Heights. We were less than 5 walking minutes to all of the restaurants. The house was well equipped and very clean. We will definitely stay again!

Short Walk to Fun Restaurant District
We enjoyed the property very much. Super convenient to restaurants, coffee shops and a nice walking/biking path. This is a nice but very small house so it is ideal for a couple or small group. Private driveway was appreciated for parking our vehicle

Wonderful weekend getaway!
What a great place to meet up with a girlfriend for the weekend! We walked up to Prospect to lunch and then walked up there again later for dinner at Joe’s. So close even on a freezing cold February weekend! Highly recommend and we will definitely stay here again.

This sweet little cottage was in the PERFECT location and loaded with character!
Renting this property was a 10 out of 10! Easy to rent, check in and out, clean, quaint and in a perfect location! Will stay again, without hesitation! 100,000,000 times better than a hotel!

A really nice tidy house within walking distance of everything!
Perfect for two friends. The two beds are Full sized, very comfortable. There is air conditioning, needed in central IL! One bedroom is a regular bedroom, the other is a kind of converted room, and that is where the bathroom is. So to use the bathroom, you do have to go in the other bedroom. For friends, this was not a problem. The bathroom was nice, the kitchen was spacious, and it was great to be able to do laundry! Steps from countless great restaurants and bars, and just moments from a beautiful long walk up Grand View Drive, or a hike into Forest Park! I do recommend calling a week or two ahead for reservations for most of the restaurants!

Visiting Family
Cutest Cottage! Only steps from cool bars, restaurants and shops. We were really impressed that patrons of the bars and restaurants' parking, etc. was not an issue for us; nor was sound coming from outdoor bars and restaurants at night. We would definitely stay here again.

Great spot!
The house was easy to find and looked just as the pictures showed inside and out. Fantastic location, it is about 30 seconds from the front door to the first place to get a drink and eat. so we did. Sat on the front porch to have a glass of wine, it was very nice. The beds were very comfortable and the house was very clean. Had a great stay and would stay here again. Thanks again, Mike

Disappointed
Great location. We found the beds to be extremely uncomfortable, too the point, my husband slept on the couch. Our reservations were for 3nights, but we checked out after 1 night due to beds. I hoped for some type of reimbursement but the owner said no. We have stayed at many VRBOs over the years and never had to check out early.

Cute bungalow in a fun area
I was attending a conference in Peoria and preferred to stay off property. This darling home was perfect. Fast replies to questions I asked, as well as comfortable beds and its own driveway for parking. Would definitely rent again!

Bungalow in the Heights
The location is really Wonderful. Enjoyed the food, shoppes, and walks. Grandview Dr. a few blocks away and the views are worth the short walk. Enjoyed the front porch and had a few cups of coffee and a few glasses of wine. The interior is adorable. Washer and Dryer on first floor. Comfy beds, nice shower and enjoyed my stay. Will stay again !

Everything was just as expected. This is the second time we rented this property and would have done so more often except it stays booked a lot.

Bright little cottage in convenient location
Easy to rent. Everything we needed for a week’s stay. Wi-fi was excellent. Close to restaurants, a coffee shop, and near Grand View Drive with its view of the Illinois River - a great place for walks. The beds are very high, especially for someone under 5’. Mattress came way above my waist. Ashleigh provided a stool but that too was above my knee and hard to climb onto. Fortunately, a family member provided a step stool. Otherwise, a lovely place in Peoria Heights.
