Lovely clean home in sweet neighborhood
We took our two Goldens to the Starved Rock area. We enjoyed our stay and had plenty of room and everything we needed. Our property manager was very available for any questions and we appreciated everything! We’ll be back.

Great place for 2 couples or less the house is not set up for more than four adults.
The listing was beautiful, the space was nice, and the host was great. The problem comes where it’s listed as a three bedroom or more and that they can sleep up to 12 people. That’s just not accurate. I had two other couples planning on staying with us and splitting the cost but when we found out it was a couch bed with a quarter inch thick mattress and two children’s beds, In the other two rooms, we quickly realized that it was not going to be split between four couples. instead, it doubled my cost. I just want some accuracy of these dang listings. I get you’re selling a listing, and you wanted to look nice, but dammit be honest. House should be great for two couples and a whole bunch of kids, but no more than four adults can stay comfortably in this house.

Roomy and well equipped
The house is in a nice location convenient to downtown Ottawa. Plenty of room to spread out. The cute kitchen had all the utensils/appliances we needed. The chickens in the back were great fun, and we took advantage of the delicious fresh eggs! One thing to be aware of, if you have motility issues: the steps into the living room are very steep! But overall things were great and we recommend a stay here!

Adorable house in a great small town.
This was an adorable and very comfortable home, near the very cool downtown Ottawa area. It was clean and had plenty of amenities available. I would stay here again next time I want to spend some time in Ottawa.
