We had such a great time staying on this working farm. The farmhouse was so cute and our dogs loved running around the big yard. Our stay was so quiet and peaceful and it was so awesome seeing the cows right out the back windows. Check in was really easy and wifi access was great. The house is very close to Starved Rock and Matthiessen state parks which we really enjoyed hiking. Would definitely recommend this home for a relaxing stay.
We LOVED our vacation at the farmhouse! It was a great location for the activities we had planned (mainly hiking in the nearby state parks). It was large enough for us all to have our own space, yet still cozy. It was quiet and peaceful, and we were sad to leave! If we come back to the area, I will absolutely plan the trip around staying here again!
We had a great time. It was our first time visiting Starved Rock State Park & we wanted somewhere we could rest after our hike. This was a perfect house for our family of 4. Everyone had their own space to relax while we could also still gather in the living room/kitchen/dining room together (with a view of the cows from the living room windows!). We got lucky with blue skies & fluffy clouds during the day & also were able to see a really beautiful full moon over barns at night. The lightening off in the distance one evening made for really cool views over the corn/bean fields. Thanks for everything!
My wife, daughter, dog and I had a wonderful stay at this farmhouse. It was clean, well kept, and exactly as advertised. Our 1yr old daughter loved all the animals around the farm, and our dog loved the big yard to run around in. Very close to both Starved Rock and Matthiessen, easy driving distance to both.Can't recommend this place enough.
Short stay, enjoyed the clean farmhouse, all upgraded bathroom, kitchen, etc. Guest book was great we went to the lodge nearby for dinner many restaurants available plenty of scenery and parks
We were in town for my mom's funeral in her hometown of Minonk, IL. I booked this stay with my mom in mind; I wanted that peace and comfort of the country that we felt as kids visiting her hometown. I also wanted a place where my dogs Bo (14) and Dasher (2) could stay. Knowing I could keep them with me was a big comfort!
We made friends with the cows and the cats, and enjoyed seeing them daily. We were reminded of the simplicity of life yet still had the comforts of such a cute and accommodating home! This home had all the nice touches for a family and the fall decorations were a plus!
Wonderful, comfortable stay!
Loved the property. Enjoyed coffee on the porch, hearing the cows. The interior of the home was just perfect for us. Will definitely plan another stay. This stay has us contemplating a move back home to Illinois.
