Beachfront vacation rentals in Illinois River

Always a delight to stay with Cal and Dan. They are outstanding hosts and have created a home of graceful accommodations and comfort. Always look forward to my stays. P.S. The best coffee ever!

The property was perfect for our needs...we were looking for relaxing downtime and this house was perfect. We enjoyed being able to sit inside the all season room and take in nature through all the windows, sitting outside and going for small walks. Rain was forecasted for our weekend there, but we hoped with the all season room, it would still prove to be the relaxing weekend. Our hopes were not only met, but exceeded in this house! We also truly enjoyed the commercial kitchen, even had a grocery delivery just so we could be spoiled and cook in that kitchen! We most definitely recommend this place and will also be looking forward to the next time we book our stay at the Lake House!! Loved the house! Great place for some R&R, disconnecting, and I'm sure when weather permits, all the other amenities are just as good!!! Luke and Erin were very responsive when we reached out and very accommodating during check in and check out. They are great hosts!!!!

I loved my stay. the place was clean and peaceful. close to restaurants and things to do. Will definitely want to come back in the future

We were in town for a few days for some high school baseball games and to visit ISU and Bradley. Even though we were gone most of the day, it was SO nice coming back to Annabelle's in the evenings to unwind and relax. It's a beautiful cottage on the water that was clean, roomy, and full of amenities. Annabelle was friendly and accommodating even though nothing went wrong and everything in the cottage was better than described. The area was quiet and the view was INCREDIBLE. Even saw a bald and golden eagle outside in the early morning hours (and found binoculars too).

We enjoyed the hot tub and the view, especially for the sunrises. The decor was amazing and the house had everything we needed!

This is our second stay at Grant's place and it was everything we were hoping for. The cabin itself is delightful, but the outdoor areas are amazing! Grant and his wife could not be better hosts. I highly recommend this property!

This is our second time staying here as a family. There are several reasons we came back: check in and out is very easy; the space accommodates our extended family very well; there is direct lake access though you have to be aware the path is “natural“ and as Doug has said in other reviews, they do not have control over improving the path; the space was very clean and all the essentials are provided; Doug is very responsive and got back to us very quickly when we had minor questions! We would highly recommend staying here, as long as it doesn’t interfere with the time we want to come back😁

Our stay was a girl’s weekend- mother and daughters. The home was perfect for relaxing and visiting. Peaceful and quiet with a lovely view. We especially enjoyed watching the barges and birds. The beds were very comfortable, too. If we’re in the area again, we’d definitely choose this home.

Very Beautiful Home with a fantastic View. A peaceful and tranquil spot that my partner and I enjoyed. Host was responsive and really helpful. Would definitely recommend for any who is looking for quiete get away. Will a book Again in The Future.👍🏽

Amazing house, great views, great communication with owner, and overall great experience! It does technically fit 10 people but that’s assuming that 8 people have to share a bed with someone else which was less than ideal for our group but could be totally someone else could be looking for. Definitely 5/5 stars and would not change a thing about our experience!
