We had a terrific stay at this property. The kids were constantly entertained by the fantastic game rooms (oh, how I wish something like this had existed when I was a kid!) and the adults had time to relax and chat. There are movie-watching treats (popcorn galore and candy) for the kids and coffee-drinking treats for the adults. We were in the house over the Thanksgiving holiday, so we brought in all our own food and cooked a big meal. The kitchen isn't outfitted for serious foodie cooking, but we had everything we needed and the place felt homey and lovely for the holiday. There was lots of extra bedding, and every room was comfy and cosy. Lots and lots of extra towels (which I happen to appreciate) and well-stcked bathrooms. Theresa checked in with us right away, and I knew if we needed anything she would respond quickly! We never needed to contact her, though, because we were well-provided for. A gem of a place!

This house it conveniently located for hiking at Starved Rock. It is reasonably priced and nicer than the lodges at the park. Host is closeby and quickly responsive to communications.
