About this cottage rental
Welcome to the Cottage at Hidden Creek Estates, a peaceful countryside retreat located on our 77-acre estate in Roscoe, Illinois. Just a short drive from Chicago, Madison, and Milwaukee, the cottage offers the perfect setting for a relaxing weekend getaway or a quiet midweek escape.
The cottage comfortably sleeps up to eight guests and features a main-level king bedroom, a second main-level bedroom with a queen bed, and a lower-level bedroom with two full beds. Two full bathrooms are located on the main level for convenience.
The fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, island seating, and a coffee station with Nespresso, a drip coffee maker, and locally roasted Yaggy Road Roasting Co. coffee to start your mornings.
Guests can relax in the comfortable living room or step outside to the private deck just off the kitchen, which features outdoor seating and a fire feature—perfect for unwinding after dinner or enjoying quiet evenings on the estate.
One of the most unique aspects of staying here is the ability to walk to Hidden Creek’s on-site restaurant and wine bar located in the iconic yellow barn. Guests can enjoy chef-driven cuisine, curated wines, fine whiskeys, and seasonal dining experiences just steps from the cottage.
During your stay, you are welcome to explore the estate’s 3.5 miles of scenic walking trails and enjoy the half-acre pond for catch-and-release fishing during designated hours.
The cottage itself is fully private for guests. A secure interior service door separates the cottage from a staff-only operational area with no shared guest space.
Hidden Creek Estates offers a peaceful countryside setting while still being conveniently located near Rockford and Beloit and just minutes from I-90, making it an easy drive from Chicago, Madison, and Milwaukee.
Whether visiting for a relaxing getaway, a small gathering with friends, or a quiet midweek retreat, the Cottage at Hidden Creek Estates offers a unique blend of comfort, nature, and exceptional dining.

We had a wonderful time staying at the Cottage. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. There was plenty of space for everyone who was staying. The house is really close to the Ledges for my daughter and other girls to ride in a weekend horse show. We will would love to come back and stay again!!
