Perfect!

Our family - ages 5 through 78 - had so much fun at this cabin! The vibe was comfortable, attractive, and welcoming. The cabin had every supply we could have wanted and more. We cooked and served with ease and had so much space to do a variety of activities. Everyone loved the big bar-height table that sat 10! The hanging light above it created great atmosphere for games, crafts and meals. When the family was out playing at the water park or Starved Rock State park, those who stayed back enjoyed quiet, peace, and beauty by the fireside and with the companionship of our dogs. Corresponding with the owner was efficient, friendly, and helpful. We hope to come back next year!

Perfect Gathering

This cabin/condo was the perfect spot for my siblings and cousin to gather for a family wedding. It was very comfortable and well equipped. Our host was very responsive whenever we had a question. Check in and check out procedures were simple and clear. And the view of the river was a nice bonus. I would not hesitate to book again if I am in the area.

Amazing stay near state parks!

We’ve stayed in several rental properties over the years (including 4 others in this same resort) and this property was one of the best! It was extremely clean and well-stocked and the hosts were easy to communicate with. We had no problems whatsoever, and would stay again and recommend it to anyone traveling to the area. It is located 5 minutes from Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks and about 10 minutes to Buffalo Rock State Park. There are cute and delicious dining options in town. The house is basically a townhouse built to look like a log cabin and tastefully decorated with a “cabin” theme throughout. There were four full bathrooms, so our large group never had to wait to use one. There were extra blankets, pillows, sheets, toiletries, paper towels, toilet paper, hand soap, etc. (basically everything you might run out of during your stay and would have to go out and buy!) which we really appreciated having. It is located in a resort, but not affiliated with it, so if you plan on going to the waterpark, you would need to pay extra. Our teens did head over there to buy ice cream, play mini-golf, and use the arcade. Overall, this is a perfect rental and I’m sure we will be back!

Weird experience

Overall, it was good. Booked last minute- took a chance on a listing with no reviews, only to have the listing removed from VRBO before we arrived. I thought we were going to be staying at a cabin, but it was actually a unit in a building that looks like a cabin that is part of a resort. Probably wouldn’t have picked it had I known that- couldn’t have a campfire. Also, I mildly panicked when I realized we were at a resort because we had our dog with. I panicked thinking I’d made a mistake when I filtered the listings and we weren’t actually supposed to have him there. Since the listing was taken down, I couldn’t even double check that way. Luckily I was able to find an email to confirm I had disclosed the dog. I’m the end, it was a huge “cabin” in a building of 4, kinda like a woodsy condo. It was very nice, in need of some repairs- which to me was acceptable for a place that allows dogs. Location was great right by Starved Rock. Probably wouldn’t rent again because if I want to rent a cabin, I want to be able to have a campfire. Mixed reviews.
