Starved Rock fall getaway
We really enjoyed Starved Rock State Park. Fall colors were beautiful and great hiking. The canyons were not what you expect in Illinois. Ottawa is a cute town that is convenient to other attractions. Heads up many of the restaurants are closed on Sundays and Mondays.

Fall Break
Very nice stay for our kids fall break. The fenced yard was great for our dog. The neighborhood felt safe. We didn't automatically receive check in info but our host was extremely prompt and responsive to help us get in.

Lovely Stay for Humans and Pups
We had a fantastic stay at the home! The house was exactly as described with a lovely back yard for our pups. It was well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The location was perfect - close to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Park. But what truly made the stay exceptional was the host. They were incredibly communicative and responsive to all our questions before our stay. We reached out to see if we could bring a small dog pool for the back yard and she responded promptly and clearly. We felt very well taken care of. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

The perfect spot
We had visited the Starved Rock area previously. This was our first time in Ottawa, the town was friendly with great restaurants and lots of activity. The property was: clean, updated, great location, and had a responsive owner. The owner also had thought of every detail of our stay. The yard was perfect for our dog and the patio was perfect for chilling out. A 10/10 experience and would stay there again.

Quiet Getaway
Love this place! I came here to finish writing a book and I was able to do just that. Close enough to Starved Rock, where I went hiking with my dogs every morning. Great coffee and food. Maria's Cafe is a must! Looking forward to staying here again!

Weekend away with family and pups
The stay was better than expected. The house is clean, spacious and well decorated. It comes with everything one needs to feel right at home. We had so much fun, and more importantly, were able to relax and unwind, that my youngest child cried when it was time to head home. The host is very responsive and accommodating. We will be staying here again during our next visit to the area.

Beautiful place!
This cozy house was immaculate, the decor was very grounding and zen feeling. Emilia was very responsive, even to my questions before booking. The backyard was lovely and had great ambience with the lighting. Emilia has thought of everything one could need for a stay, and the thoughtfulness put into every detail shows. We could not have asked for a better stay!

Lovely Property!
This house is adorable! Super cute decor, perfect size for a family of 5 plus our dog! I absolutely love that it is pet-friendly and has a fenced in yard. It's a great location, just minutes from downtown. Only 15 minutes to Starved Rock. The street is quiet, so you can actually enjoy the space. Best of all, Emilia was SUPER responsive! She messaged to let us know we could check in a little early. I messaged her with a question and she responded within minutes. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to hike. Thanks, Emilia!
