U of I Moms weekend

The house was beautiful and very clean, comfortable, and well sticked. It was a very luxurious home on a nice street close to U if I and local stores and restaurants. A really beautiful house and the host was easy to contact and very helpful. Highly recommended.

Golf Course Hidden Gem

Loved everything about this property! Close to university, updated and clean home with tons of sleeping and entertaining space! Beautiful views made it seem like a vacation spot instead of a neighborhood of houses! Would definitely recommend and rent again!

Best rental at UIUC!

I've stayed in pretty much every highly rated rental home in the area over the last 4 years and this is by far the best. Unlike most rentals, they did a very high end remodel on this one. The flooring, fixtures, appliances, beds etc. are all really high quality. The kitchen is the most well supplied we've ever come across. The decor is a bit funky but the house is spotlessly clean. Eric was a pleasure to deal with and the check in check out process was a breeze... I just wish it was around 4 years ago!

Exceptional Stay with Midcentury Charm

I recently hosted my family at this beautifully renovated BNB, and it was perfect in every way. The home radiates character with its carefully curated art and decor. The bedrooms and bathrooms were beautifully appointed, offering luxurious comfort that made our stay feel special. The home had all the amenities we needed and more. Situated on the University of Illinois golf course, the scenic views added to the peaceful setting. This is truly the ideal spot for a memorable family gathering!

Annual college friends trip

The house is superb! Newly renovated, beautifully and very comfortably furnished. The living room, dining room and den suited our group of eight perfectly. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious, and the kitchen is fully stocked. It takes full advantage of the view of the golf course. We visited in mid-October, so the fall colors were terrific. Very convenient to the campus without being in the middle of it. We were there for a football weekend and were able to get to the game easily. Highly recommend.

Amazing Trip

This was my first time using VRBO and I did this because we had family coming in from around the world and wanted a place to visit in between activities that a hotel cannot offer. The house is amazing, very well equipped, very clean, roomy, great location, lots of places and space for people to sit and visit, comfortable beds, full kitchen with everything you could ask for. The communication with Eric was exceptional from start to finish, I could not have asked for more. I've always been kind of a hotel guy, but if all the houses are like this one, I might become a VRBO lifer. Many thanks to Eric for guiding me through the experience and providing top notch service and accommodations. If I ever make it back to Champaign IL, I know where I will stay. Thanks again.

Comfortable! Clean! Beautiful!

WOW! What an amazing property! The house backs up to a beautiful golf course with a fantastic view. But the inside decor exceeded our expectations! Art, interesting and comfortable furniture, cool light fixtures…it felt like home! Being recently renovated, the house is in tip top shape! But the best part…it is spotless. Not a spec of dust, clean linens and towels, and shiny bathrooms. Extra hospitality is given with coffee, tea, 2 bottles of wine, make up removing wipes…even a small sound system. A beautiful property with a great location! Definitely do not hesitate to book this home!!

Beautiful home, wanted to live here

The pics and descriptions don't do this place justice. The renovations are gorgeous. Layout is perfect - I didn't want to leave! Kitchen is huge and the upscale appliances are awesome. We spent a lot of time in the sunroom watching the golfers. Decor is eclectic and interesting - everything is well-appointed including great bath products, sheets and towels. We were very familiar with the area as my niece lived near there last year -- super close to Walmart, Schnucks, Harvest Market, bowling. Two things to know: Someone who doesn't mind light in the morning should sleep in the master bedroom because of the clesterory windows (we didn't mind, but put my brother in a bedroom with darkening shades!). And, I think this is mentioned, but to confirm, this is not a street you can park on, so only 4 cars will fit tight in the driveway.

I couldn’t recommend this house more. It’s better than the pictures. Fully remodeled, very spacious, very clean. Had a great time here during graduation weekend. We took the best cap and gown family pics in the golf course. We were able to bring ingredients and cook at home instead of putting up with the crowds that were in town for the weekend.

Fantastic stay!

This home is spacious while being very welcoming. We gathered friends and family to celebrate our daughter's graduation. Enjoyed sitting around the nicely sized dining table where everyone could eat and laugh. Kitchen was very well-stocked, plenty of towels and the beds were super comfortable. Really nice space to get good friends together or for a mini-family reunion. Highly recommend!
