Vacation rentals in Illinois

We had a lovely time at Brittany's place. The place was clean, comfortable, and supplied with thoughtful amenities. We really appreciated the attention to detail. We were committed to plans during the day but when we got back in the evenings, we enjoyed sitting on the porch looking out at the water and listening to the frogs. Private and quiet- love that you can't see neighbors and the nature trail out back is lovely for meandering around. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Brittany!

Beautiful cabin near restaurants, and close to many attractions. Perfect for our group.

This is a perfect little cottage near the lake. It had everything we needed, including nice outdoor patio spaces for eating and a big firepit. You can't see much of the lake from the cottage, but it's easy to get to - across a quiet road and down a very long flight of stairs. There's a nice big dock for fishing, swimming, star gazing at night, boating, and just relaxing and enjoying the view (it's a particularly scenic section of the lake because there is no development on the other side of the water - just forest!). We loved having access to kayaks and enjoyed fishing off the dock. Would love to return in summer when we can swim and do even more water activities!

This was our second stay at Heather's place. It's spacious with a well equipped kitchen. Plently of dishes, utensils, pots/pans, baking items (measuring cups, spatula, whisk, cupcake pans, etc.). It's very clean & smells good. The beds were comfortable for everyone. With 5 acres, we were able to take a little hike in the woods. Our family of 12 had a great time. We will be back again!

This place is so worth it! Geloria’s cabin is fantastic. We had to change our honeymoon plan last minute but we were able to talk to her and made a reservation painlessly. The cabin turned out to be better than our original plan! We will come back again for our anniversary for sure. Rechel & Ploy

THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH! We had a fantastic weekend. Ma's Cabin was the perfect "home-base" for our hiking adventures. Was so peaceful to relax after hiking all the trails. Everything we needed for our getaway. Sid and Patty were so friendly and of course Lillie stole the show ❤️. Thank you again!

Beyond the words !!! Extremely peaceful and beautiful place ! The place exceeded our expectations...only regret is we stayed only one night....in future , we would be coming for more number of days

Adams Rock cabin was a great home base for our Shawnee trip! The place looks exactly as pictured/described. We appreciated the Native American decor as well as informative books in the cabin. The location is not super remote, but the large yard was perfect for our kids and dog to play and just enjoy being outside. We particularly enjoyed roasting marshmallows around the fire pit! For others traveling with kids, it is worth knowing that the loft bedroom is up a steep ladder without any particularly good way to block the ladder at the bottom or top. The kitchen was equipped with necessities but not a lot of extras. If you’re planning to pack picnic lunches for your hikes, make sure to bring storage containers! Overall, we had a wonderful stay, appreciated all of Mary’s helpful communication, and really enjoyed exploring a new-to-us part of the country!

We immediately felt very comfortable; everything was as described (actually, even better!) and we felt like we were staying at an old friends house. Super clean, with everything needed if you want to prepare your own meals. It was just the two of us, so we had plenty of room. I think it would also be perfect for a small family. We felt safe and the area was quiet and convenient. We spent most of our time in Springfield, which was an easy 30 min drive. We loved being able to come back to Petersburg to relax. Highly recommend this property; the owners were a joy to work with!!

We had a great stay at The Nest on a snowy, winter weekend. House was as described in the listing. Comfortable beds/pillows and living area. We loved having the hot tub and shuffle board table. The driveway is pretty steep and our car had trouble getting up while actively snowing, but luckily there is space for parking at the top of the drive. Overall, wonderful weekend and host.

Tyler was an incredible host. He accommodated our last minute booking and welcomed us and our fur babies. Tyler was responsive and kind. The home was clean with a pleasant smell. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We were genuinely surprised with the size of the living space and felt right at home. The kitchen snack box and the bathroom necessity boxes were so thoughtful. The animal toy/blanket bin, coffee/tea station, and board game collection were highlights. 10/10 would recommend and stay again.

The most important thing when we travel with our dogs is how secure the fenced in yard is. Dog parents - the fence is very secure. We check every inch of the yard before letting our dogs off leash. The place was cute, cozy, clean and comfortable. Check in was easy and the neighborhood seemed safe. Tania was a great host. We do want to mention that after booking our stay, we received the house rules which mentions not to flush toilet paper. This may be a deal breaker for some. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful home. Clean and wonderful amenities. Peaceful stay utilizing hot tub, firepit and porches. Doreen was very attentive throughout stay. We enjoyed the "extras " such as the Owners Club. Highly recommend!

Everything was great! The suite had everything I needed, and it was comfortable and relaxing

great place, location, and space!

This home was absolutely beautiful and exactly what I wanted. I was looking for a large backyard to allow my dogs to run in while I stayed there. The yard is probably 3/4 of an acre and was excellent for the dogs. The driveway even extends beyond the privacy gate where you can pull your car right into it and let the dogs right out. It was perfect for loading the guys up early in the morning and letting them out late at night. I double checked the fence and she definitely reinforced a lot of it. There’s chicken wire on the bottom so the dogs can’t dig underneath it. The home itself is absolutely beautiful with a king size bed in the main bedroom, which has a window right to the backyard. It’s exactly what I needed for my 10 day stay Liz was also super responsive and super helpful for any questions that I had. I’m definitely gonna be able to stay here again.

The place was very comfortable, and very cozy. It felt as if we were at home but more relaxing. We will definitely be back there next year. Christy is a very warm and welcoming host.

James was extremely communicative and responsive, and gave clear instructions on how to get into the house, how to turn on/off the hot tub, and how to check out. The house was exactly as described and it was the perfect size for 6 people. The neighborhood and surrounding area was peaceful & quiet. There was coffee k-cups supplied which was a nice touch, and we had everything we needed for a 2 night stay. I would highly recommend this place!

John was a very kind and responsive host. Answered any questions we had very quickly. Home was exactly as pictured and described. Very comfortable place to stay. Everything was clean. Appreciated the family and kid friendliness of the home--not a lot of decorative items in reach that could be broken, no tables with sharp edges, low bed in the upper guest room that was easy to get in and out. Location was close to several restaurants and grocery stores, and not too far a drive from all the major tourist attractions.

Awesome find a block from Main Street in downtown Galena, we’ve stayed here several times and are constantly impressed. Lauren has done a great job taking an older place and making it modern without removing the charm. Everything from Bluetooth speakers to a modern kitchen and large TV with online services and WiFi, this is a great place to stay w family. They even have a parking spot a block away now. Lauren is an amazing host and responded immediately to any request as she’s right down the street. The only downside is on a weekend night it can get a bit loud being one block from several bars, but that’s the nature of being downtown . Highly recommended!

The house was clean and had everything described in the listing. The host had thought of everything, down to restaurant listings for the area and items for a continental breakfast. Beds were comfortable, linens were clean, comfy furniture in the living room as well. If I'm ever back in the area, I will definitely stay here again. Thanks for a great stay Jared!

This place met our needs for a family get together in Arthur. The location was perfect for us and the host was responsive and easy to reach. The house is in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end street and we felt perfectly safe. The place is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with all the essentials. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

During the weekend, there was a severe Tornado Watch. Allison invited us into the safety of her home's basement without hesitation. The cabin was clean, obviously created with care, and a wonderful spot for a rainy cozy weekend. My friend and I used the paddle boards on the lake, enjoyed using the BBQ grill, and loved our stay. We hope to come again. Thank you, Allison!

Holly and Mark are great hosts. Very responsive and went above and beyond to offer additional help and recommendations for travel, food, etc during our stay.
