Perfect Getaway!
We stayed here (10 adults) for my husbands 40th Birthday and it was perfect!! We had such a great time and the house literally feels like it fell out of Vegas; modern with elegant and fun decor! Between playing pool, street fighter and a few crashing early while watching tv in the theater chairs, everyone was taken care of. We had such a blast and Ashley was a phenomenal host. So accommodating and really fast responses. We are already talking about booking again once it gets warmer!

Exceptional Experience
This property is absolutely beautiful. The owner has done a wonderful job of meticulously decorating. Lots of love put into the decor. An abundance of space for our large family. In addition to the 4 bedrooms, they also provide roll away beds. Ashley the owner, was very responsive to our questions. The property is about 35 miles from downtown Chicago and the area is safe. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful Place to Stay!
We had a really great time during our stay! Check in was easy and Ashely answered all of my questions quickly and thoroughly, and even checked in with us via a message after our arrival. The home itself is beautiful and on a quiet street and nice wooded lot that is close to the beach and easily accessible. While we were disappointed at first that the hot tub was seasonal and had already been closed (this was not noted in the listing), we made the best of it and still had a great weekend! There were a few minor things we noticed upon arrival (the air was on instead of the heat, LED lights were not working in the upstairs living room, and it took some finagling to get the fireplace going in the master) but none of these ended up impacting our stay or the quality of our visit. Ashely seems to take feedback to heart as I noticed in a review that a previous guest mentioned not having hot pads, and there were some available in the kitchen for us to use, along with many other amenities. We would stay here again for a weekend away!

Kinda Meh - Over priced for Amenities
I wanted to start by saying that Ashley’s home is lovely. There are beautiful updates and the decor are very tasteful. There is a lot a space for kids to entertain themselves inside as well as space for privacy. This trip for me was a bit last minute. I understand that several renters require a min of 2-3 nights and sometimes a week. I was happy to know 1 night was allowed. With that being said, the extras I was looking for included a hot tub. Perfect for Sept right? Well, one was listed and I felt paying more for this extra luxury was justified. Problem was, it never heated up. After quite a few helpful responses from owner, she stopped responding after the hot tub wouldn’t get any higher than 73 degrees with the cover on as directed (we waited 5 hours for it to go from 69-73). It wasn’t even cold out. I had a group of very disappointed 16 year old girls. Not a suggestion of partial refund, not an apology, nothing….crickets. The hot tub was some blow up contraption. Not a hot tub expert but probably along the lines of kiddy pool. I was super disappointed and felt we had been over charged big time. The kitchen also lacked several items as I racked my brain about how to make thins work. No hot pads for oven, no towels, one tiny dishrag, no pizza pan, no pizza wheel, no serving bowls, and other things you would need to host 15 people (which is how it’s listed online).Also, the driveway will bottom out your car. Super steep!!

Nice stay in convenient and quiet location
This was a nice spot for some friends to stay close to the beach, which is walking distance away. Communicating with Ashley was easy and fast.
