Not the greatest
Windows are filthy and have a fog on them. Window blinds are broken and some pieces missing. Driveway is narrow and when you get out of your vehicle you are forced to get scratches from rose bushes! Chair in back yard were plastic and cracked so when you sit with shorts on, it pinches your skin.

What a fabulous time we had! The house was very clean and nicely decorated. And thank goodness for the air conditioner because it was during the extreme heat warning. Yikes! The beds, pillows, and linens were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Great water pressure and nice hot water. Elaine was very accommodating and responded quickly to any questions I had. Will definitely stay here again! Thanks Elaine!

Welcoming Home in Lasalle, Il
Very nice and welcoming home we used for a Wedding in LaSalle, Illinois. Very clean and well maintained home. We had my sons two dogs with us and Elaine had dog bowels and a toy for them to play with. Elaine had some toys for the Kiddos to play with. Every happy with the stay and the fence in yard for the dogs and kids to play in.

The house was beautiful & clean, the furniture, the games, records, welcome basket for our pup was all amazing. The backyard is perfect, our dog loved it as well. We needed to contact our host & she was so quick in responding, it was not a house issue! Very comfortable bed and plenty of room to spread out. I would definitely go back! Nice town, people would wave and say hello. Perfect getaway!

Perfect cute little getaway house
Having grown up in the area, we stayed here as we were in town for a wedding, and this cute house fit the bill. The bathroom was recently remodeled, as well as the kitchen. Clean and comfortable, and with hot summer weather the excellent AC made for pleasant sleeping. Neighborhood was nice and quiet, and very convenient.

Peaceful Retreat
The home was very clean and tidy. We appreciated having the kitchen to be able to cook and the close proximity of a variety of restaurants. The back yard was completely surrounded by privacy fence and made it so easy to bring the dogs with us. We visited two state parks and this property was in an ideal location for both. While we were on our trip the host even messaged me about some local activities that were going on. The beds were comfortable (even though I typically don't care for memory foam) and the house cooled really quickly when we returned for the day and would turn the AC down.

Great vacation home for the family and dog
We had a great visit with my elderly parents and our dog. They had all the comforts of home, a nice fenced yard for the dog, great location and the queen mattresses were oh so comfy. The neighborhood was very quiet and we felt very safe. The host was very prompt in getting back to me if I had questions. There were goodies left for the humans and our dog. Five stars and five paws! We will stay again the next time we are in the area.

Going the Extra Mile
The house, the yard, everything was great. But after staying in a couple VRBOs, it's the attention to detail that you appreciate! There was a fantastic supply of TP, which rare, but much appreciated! And the welcome basket for the pups made them feel so loved. It included two stuffies, a bag of treats and a roll of poop bags. We could tell they really do love pets as much as we love ours. We also really utilized the binder full of restaurant suggestions and places to go in the area! The pups had a wonderful time getting zoomies in the giant, fully fenced in yard. There was an area near the front that our puppy could have squeezed under, but I was easily able to block it with some wood, and there were no worries after that. House has a fun and quirky layout with "secret passages" (not really), and we had fun playing hide & seek with the pups inside. Had a great time, hope to come again soon!

Starved Rock Stay
We had a lovely time at this quaint and cozy home. It was a great place for us to stay while visiting starved rock for a sled demo for our rescue. We were so very appreciative that they allowed us to have our “fur kids” and they felt right at home. Will definitely consider coming back when I’m town.
