10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
We enjoyed the house and location. Perfect for enjoying kayaking on the lake, fishing (didn't catch anything), listening to the birds, sunsets, stars, s'mores on the fire, and just relaxing. Please look at prior reviews...I brought our own bath towels (I'm a towel snob), paper towels, etc. Be aware of the very tight staircase to get downstairs.
We will be back! We even lucked out that there was a special market downtown on the riverfront Saturday morning..instead of the farmers market.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Great for the price. Small, older house on a lake with view of the Illinois River. You'll see boats, barges, jet skis, kayaking. Loved the deck and firepit! Wish we had a patio umbrella, though. If you're taller than 5'9, downstairs might be a bit challenging. Super small shower, but did the trick. Only 4 towels, 3 washcloths, 2 hand towels, and not enough dish towels. Wish there were more and some paper towel. Very peaceful.

We had a great stay at such a nice place, the host were great and very responsive if anything was a concern or needed. Would stay again 100%
