About this cottage rental

Welcome to Storybook Cottage. This sweet little stone home is nearly 100 years old, yet updated to keep the charm of yesteryear, yet provide all the comfortable modern amenities. We have set up the cottage to function for the needs of families, as well as be peaceful and quiet respite for our traveling professionals who enjoy some tranquility after a long day or night of work. All bedrooms have blinds and blackout curtains for our medical professions working the night shift. This home is nestled in a quiet neighborhood near the Bike Path along the river and while it feels tucked away, you are less than 15 minutes to all of our local hospitals and only 4 minutes to the UIC School of Medicine. For our working professionals, there are two dedicated work spaces as well as high speed internet. A Roku TV is provided and ready for you to log into your favorite apps. Enjoy morning coffee in the three season porch or make your home cooked meal memorable by dining at the table on the paved outdoor patio. The kitchen is well equipped with full size appliances and plenty of pots/pans, bakeware, and utensils to make all the home cooked meals you want. Although we provide plenty of linens and extra blankets, there is a washer/dryer provided for your convenience. Given that this is nearly a century old home, it is not handicapped accessible and the ability to climb stairs into and around in the house is necessary. Please note there are two exterior doorbell cameras pointing away from the house which includes any space of guest enjoyment.

We enjoyed our stay. It was a quiet and peaceful neighborhood with great restaurants nearby. The inside was clean and comfortable. The outside of the house could use some updated landscaping, yet we loved being able to walk the dogs on the bike path along the river. Thank you for allowing us a safe and cozy place to stay while visiting family and friends.

Molly is kind and immediately responds to any questions i may have. The kitchen is perfectly supplied with all kinds of cookware and necessities The beds are comfy, linens are nice, and the front room is cozy. The location is lovely, close to the river and walking path! I have seen lots of ducks, geese, bald eagles, and a muskrat! :) I have stayed here several times when i travel to Rockford for work! Storybook Cottage is a perfect home away from home!

I was looking for a small, comfortable place to spend a few days outside of my regular hectic life. Enough going on outside, with neighbors enjoying the outdoors to keep it interesting, even in the snow! Beautiful carpentry and amazing architecture kept me walking from room to room just to see the unique spaces. It was just what I was looking for!

This was a nice place for our small family to hang out, play games, and relax. Very neat and clean. Well decorated for the holidays. Well apportioned for the supplies etc. we needed. (You might need a few extra blankets in the upstairs bedrooms during the winter nights...)

The house is beautiful! Spotlessly clean, beautifully updated, with lovely decor. The communication with the owner was quick, pleasant, and helpful. Cozy and warm, there are blankets to cuddle with in each room. Her Christmas decorations were professionally done! Gorgeous! Great coffee selection and fully appointed kitchen. Beds are of the highest quality. This is one of the nicest VRBOs we have rented.
