We rented this place for an OK and MI family get together and it was amazing. While the pictures are nice, the place is more beautiful in person. The inside has a nice semi sophisticated vibe with cool artwork, great lighting, quality furniture and appliance through out the house. The down stairs area was amazing and a great getaway for the kids and/or adults looking for quite area to just relax, watch tv or play games (xbox one & board games included). Also, the large ice maker downstairs was a game changer. Every room was very clean, no critters or dust, they had all the kitchen ware needed, beds were comfortable, and they had games beyond games (indoor and outdoor)… could go on….but the place was fully stacked and greatly appreciated everything they had to offer. They even had a AC unit for the screened in outside patio area.
The location was great for trout fishing on the Lower Illinois River (few miles), the lake was just a short walk away for bass and other warmwater species, and the float trip on the upper was about a 35 min drive. If I had to give a con about the property it would be the other houses in the surrounding area. However, once on the property the privacy fence and woods took care of that.
Overall the place was amazing, a great escape, we really enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend.
