Great getaway!
This beautiful, historic home has been renovated to include all of the creature comforts that you need. Loved our evenings on the deck and our coffee on the front porch in the morning. The host is thoughtful and generous with what is provided with the stay. It was a wonderful getaway.

Beautiful Home & Stay
We were a group of friends from various parts of Illinois that were looking for somewhere to meet in the middle. We selected this house so we could go hiking at Mathieson and Starved Rock. The house though was the best part of the trip, it was extremely clean and beautifully restored. We particularly loved sitting in the front porch room and being able to use the back deck was a great option.

Best rental I have ever stayed at!
As an interior designer it is not often I find a space where there is nothing I would change, Kristy and Don nailed it! The cleanliness, coziness, attention to details (it has ANYTHING you may need and more) and the local history is amazing. This will be my number one pick when visiting the Illinois Valley.

PERFECT Girls Weekend!!!!!!!!!!
My group of 4 best girl friends and I had a wonderful stay making memories in this lovely home. The kitchen is stunning and super functional. We made our favorite recipes from our recent European trip together, played dominos, laughed and enjoyed the beautiful home. The bedrooms are very comfy and decorated like a 5-star hotel but with more thoughtfulness and personal touches! We shopped a local boutique and visited multiple cocktail bars and restaurants. The home is SUPER clean with modern touches. It is incredible when you walk through the door expecting and see all of the gorgeous decor! There is even a room dedicated to the town with many local antiques. Sort of like a mini museum! The host was beyond accommodating and welcoming. Only a phone call away if we needed something. I will definitely be renting this adorable home again for my next get away!!!!

Perfect space!
This was our second time staying at this lovely house. Beautiful early 1900s woodwork throughout the house with a gorgeous kitchen and baths. It was the perfect place to stay for a large group of us, with 4 bedrooms (super comfortable mattresses!)and nice size living areas. The kitchen is fully stocked with cooking equipment and china, making it easy to have meals there. It’s just a short drive to Starved Rock from here. Save some money and stay here with your family instead of the Lodge!

Relaxing weekend
Comfortable and well-appointed. There were 4 in our group and it was great to have our own bedrooms. The house has been so carefully updated and the bathrooms and kitchen are gorgeous. We stayed 2 nights while our kids were camping at Starved Rock with Scouts - it was close to go day hiking but nice to have a warm, comfortable place to relax and sleep, with a full kitchen.

Family Reunion
Fantastic house! Our family is originally from Tonica and enjoyed the house to gather, reminisce, tell stories, enjoy each others company and laugh a lot. The house was perfect in every way. Lots of room for everyone , great kitchen for preparing meals and bedrooms were spacious. Stunningly decorated! Hardwood floors and wood work are beautiful.

Tonics Fest and Starved Rock
House was super clean and decorated very nicely. Neat mementos dedicated to the towns past displayed throughout. Beds were extremely comfortable. Rich hardwood floors and updated bathrooms. Kitchen looked like a magazine showcase. Loved the towns fest and we were so close to Starved Rock.
