Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. We are a mile away from starved rock State Park, and Matthiessen State Park. Our house is on a two and half acre land, but not too far away to city of Peru or Ottawa both will take about 15 minutes to get there.

It was a great place to stay, very clean and overall comfortable environment. The views out the windows to the farmland were very nice. Will definitely come back and recommend to anyone looking to book!

My friends and I visited for a weekend and it was perfect. The location was a short drive to some beautiful parks. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay. The host was very accommodating. We are planning another trip this fall and if the property is available we would like be happy to stay there again.
This place is perfect for someone who plans to hike Matthiessen or Starved Rock State Park. Very close to both.
The house is beautiful, warm and quiet. Comfortable beds. Very well equipped kitchen.
Joe is very responsive.
Would definitely recommend it. We would love to stay here again.
We enjoyed the peacefulness and seclusion of the house out in the country. It was a short drive over to Starved Rock and we even made a drive into a grocery store in LaSalle which was about 20 min away. We had a hard time getting the lock to open when getting in and with the heat but the owner was very quick to respond and resolve issues. He was kind and was understanding to our needs. Know that if you’re bringing children there’s only one bedroom with a door; the other is just partitioned off by curtains so there’s not much noise reduction for that room. If you don’t have kids this wouldn’t be a problem. The kitchen had a new oven, a nice fridge, and a number of cooking utensils and even some spices. Overall, it was a great location for our stay and what we were looking to do.
