Lakehouse Studio Unit - The Historic Red Rooster Inn

JeronimoRating, 5 stars5 months ago
For the little studio, I’ve got to say it is awesome, though, I like cooking so I usually stock up on food and the place had no panty, so I think it should have small one but it should, now, recommended, of course it was great, if you travel by self or a couple, it is a studio, location is the best I have to say, and the bed very comfortable. Thanks

Platypus Hills, Lake, Heated Pool, Hot tub,Firepit

KaylaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We absolutely loved staying here! The hosts live on site, but separately from the airbnb, and they definitely gave us privacy! We were able to communicate with them quickly about how to use the heated pool and customize the hot tub to our preferred settings :) We utilized the fire pit and made s’more’s with a kit they provided, which was awesome!! Clean-up was just place your trash in the breezeway and clean your dishes - nothing excessive. Overall 10/10 visit and definitely recommend!!

History and Luxury on the Kankakee River

JuliaRating, 5 stars9 months ago
This house is unlike any other. A historic gem and among gorgeous oak trees with multiple views of the river. We are huge fans of Kankakee for its river and state park and were able to walk to downtown restaurants and a brewery across the river (a 25 min walk to downtown). Perfect for six and we wished we could have stayed longer.

Lakeside SARAndipity: Sleeps 8 w/ outdoor spaces!

BrittanyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Christy’s house was beautiful, it’s right on Lake Sara with a beautiful boat dock. There is even kayaks and a canoe you can use of hers with floaties and life vests. This house is way bigger than the pictures and very spacious! Christy also leaves extra condiments,coffee and spices for the guests! That was really a plus for me because usually airbnbs have empty shelves and you have to buy the condiments and spices you’ll only use once! Overall I loved Christy’s house and we will be back!!

Lake House off Route 66

AutumnRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Very peaceful stay! There was a fire waiting for us in the firepit. Plenty of space inside and out. There is plenty of outdoor space to walk or just sit and relax. There is a doggie door that makes it so easy to let my pups out. I wish I could have stayed longer!

Quiet Elegant 2 Bedroom Condo with a Rooftop patio

KarlaRating, 5 stars16 months ago
We definitely were comfortable here and liked the location. It was spacious and suited our needs quite nicely. There were some areas the needed a little extra cleaning and probably due to the fact the dishwasher wasn't working we found some used/dirty dishes that had been put away in the cupboard -most likely not even known to the owners but by previous tenants, so we hand-washed everything before use and again at the end. We came for Christmas break and asked if there might be Christmas decor -and they did! They had a lovely tree and lights and some nice decor around the main areas -which really made it special for us! So grateful and appreciative of their efforts to create holiday cheer for us! They responded quickly to messages, however there was some miscommunication about getting a second key that never happened and would've made it a bit easier on our group to come and go separately as needed. Great stay overall!
