About this house rental

Woodland Setting on a hill, a half mile walk from the Illinois River.
This 100 year old Victorian home has a refined interior, and is ideally furnished for one person, or a couple. The main floor includes an enclosed porch, a living room, dining room, wine tasting room with wet bar & library, a country kitchen, and full bathroom with shower. The upstairs is a Jack & Jill design with a king bed and a bathroom with a tub. Jack and Jill design means you need to walk through the master bedroom and bathroom to get to the "grand-child's play room" (seasonal only) with a twin bed. The Basement Includes: A front load washer, dryer, and toilet are in the utility room. A double bed was added to accommodate one extra guest. There is an additional basement room which could be used for storage if a longer term stay is desired. This is the perfect quiet get away to host an intimate family gathering or a place to stay while you visit local family or friends.
Contact owner for information re: longer term rental prices.

Sanitation and Cleanliness was an issue - filthy. Safety was huge issue - the pictures and description on website very misleading and not accurate. Access to property on driveway is unsafe - not disclosed. No central air and small window AC - could not use some upstairs BR as too hot. Definitely not recommended for seniors or children and overall would not recommend for anyone. When we talked to the owner about the issues the only thing they cared about was the review and offered me a small refund not to post the review. Worst property and host we have ever stayed with.

This property was Perfect for our family of four. The master bed was very comfortable and the house was equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed getting up in the morning and having a cup of coffee outside while watching the deer that would appear out of the woods.

Was a pleasant stay here for a long weekend with family. The house was charming and we loved the details like the old fashioned wallpaper and all the available pots/pans/etc in the kitchen for cooking. Highly recommend checking out local farmers markets on the weekends and Peoria heights area. Close to grandview drive which would be beautiful in the fall.

Nice little house perched on a wooded lot. Inside steps are narrow and somewhat steep. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were nice and clean. It was quaint and a nice place to stay. Television options could be upgraded.

Pamela made me feel at home from check in to check out! The property is absolutely beautiful, quite, and serene(the deer are photogenic too) The attached porch is my favorite part! Close to town; yet nestled in the woods for the true getaway feel! I’ll definitely be back!!

The love and care put into this property is evident throughout. This century old home has both the charm of the past and the function of the present. It was also impecibly clean and comfortable. The owner/host clearly cares about her guests, and made the check in process easy for us. While only there for 2 nights, it served as a wonderful home base for our hiking excursion up to Matthiessen State Park near Starved Rock about an hour from the home. There seem to be other hiking options closer, and if we'd had more time, we would have like to explore more of the area. Definitely something we'll consider in the future.
