About this property

Geneva Island Park Retreat

Newly opened in this area; be the first guests to stay at reduced rates. Just a short walk to Fox River's bike and walking trails, and the scenic Island Park. Take a stroll over the pedestrian bridge into the heart of historic downtown Geneva. The idyllic Fox River area is great for nature walks, bird watching, kayaking, or fishing. Come back to enjoy the screened porch on this quiet street, or the private back patio. Retreat inside to the comfort of the three bedrooms and two full baths.
Enjoy this beautifully remodeled historic home right in the heart of Geneva. This stunning home was recently updated to include all the amenities to enjoy a cozy and relaxing stay, while preserving its original charm on a quiet, tree-lined street near Island Park, and less than a mile from Geneva's famous Third street. With a downstairs master bedroom you can enjoy your privacy, while still being steps away from the comforts of the kitchen, family room and back patio. The master bedroom has a queen bed and includes a work area, with high speed internet (1000 Mpbs).
The kitchen is updated with butcher block countertops, shaker cabinets and stainless steel appliances, including refrigerator, stove, microwave and dishwasher. The kitchen also is stocked with what you'll need to prepare a meal. Adjoining the kitchen is a large family room featuring built-in shelving, large screen TV, a cozy couch and french doors that lead out onto the private patio. Or enjoy mornings or evenings with a cup of your favorite drink on the cozy screened porch.
There is a full bathroom with shower downstairs, just steps away from the master bedroom. Two other spacious bedrooms are upstairs - one with a queen bed and the other with two twin beds. Upstairs also includes another full size, newly updated bathroom. There are plenty of towels, blankets and toiletries to simplify your stay.
The detached garage, long driveway and additional on-sight parking spot provide plenty of private parking.
Take a stroll to beautiful Island Park, right on the Fox River. Or you can enjoy a longer walk, or rent bikes at the local cycle shop, with miles of scenic, paved trails along the Fox River. Less than a mile walk to the shops, restaurants and ice cream parlors of Geneva's Third Street district. You can also take a short drive to the quaint downtown areas of neighboring St. Charles or Batavia, also on the shores of the beautiful Fox River.
In an effort to maintain a secure premises, the property is equipped with a Ring doorbell located at the outside entrance to the home and the garage door.
There is a fee of $10/day for each additional guest after the initial two guests - this keeps the overall daily rental cost lower, while still covering the costs associated with additional cleaning, utilities and wear & tear for larger groups.
You will note the charge for "Taxes collected (11%)" - this results from the State of Illinois hotel tax of 6% and the City of Geneva hotel tax of 5%. These taxes are required by and paid directly to the state and city governments.

Close to perfect!
This was definitely one of the nicest properties we’ve stayed in. The neighborhood was lovely and conveniently located to the Fox River Trail as well as downtown restaurants. Kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable, cleanliness was outstanding!! The garage was a huge amenity for bike and car storage. The walk-in shower floor was kind of slippery with no grab bars to catch yourself. We really enjoyed our stay!

Cousins Reunion
The perfect place to host a cousins reunion. A couple of the out of towners stayed overnight while the Chicagoland cousins came for an afternoon visit. Loved the screened in porch and the outside deck. The house was well furnished, clean, comfortable and the host so accommodating. We will be back.

Geneva Getaway
We had a fantastic stay at this property! The location was ideal. Extremely easy walk to Geneva’s downtown but the home was located in a quiet neighborhood. The house was clean and had very comfortable beds. We enjoyed the four-season room and took advantage of the bonfire on the back patio. We wish our stay was longer but would definitely be returning.

Great Suburban Neighborhood Environment
Our five day stay was excellent. Description and pictures of the property are accurate and appropriately inviting. Location is very convenient to Geneva and the other fine Fox River towns. Hosts were gracious, responsive and helpful. Bikes in the garage were nice and the screened in porch and backyard sitting area very inviting. We hope to be back next time in town visiting extended family.

Geneva Gem
Elise’s and Tom’s property in Geneva is awesome! Our first impression was of how spotless the home was. After driving for 8 hours, it was a joy to walk into a clean, fresh and light-filled home. We were greeted with a personal note of welcome, and a coffee bar! Beds, linens, furnishings and amenities were wonderful. We got a chuckle over the LED light in the main bathroom faucet. So cool 😎 An added bonus was the screened front porch, beautiful patio and yard. I’m an avid gardener and was delighted to see peonies, lantana, hosta and more 😊 I don’t know that we will be back in the Chicago area again, but if we were, we would definitely choose this lovely home. Thank you for your hospitality!

My friends and I adored this place! Will definitely book again. Every detail was lovely. It's beautifully decorated, quiet, with comfy beds and bathrooms. The pictures really don't do it justice. And the hosts were incredibly thoughtful! Looking forward to next time!

Excellent property
Great weekend with friends at this house. Communication with the owners was easy with prompt replies. Check in was a breeze. The whole property was very clean. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking meals. Beds were comfortable and we had plenty of towels. Garage parking is a bonus. We didn’t need it but the full size washer & dryer is a great perk. We had hoped to enjoy the lovely patio but it was a bit too windy this weekend. Proximity to nearby shops, restaurants and parks is perfect. Highly recommend this property!

This is one of the nicest vrbos I have ever stayed in. The amenities were great- well stocked kitchen, a garage for the car (!), washer/dryer - with detergent provided, 2 bikes and plenty of blankets to be cozy. The location is perfect - an easy walk or bike ride to the river and the fun of downtown Geneva. And thr board were beyond fabulous - so very kind and responsive. Thank u so very much.
