Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Illinois

I needed a quiet place to stay to meditate, pray, study, etc. I also needed a place to meet up with a friend I hadn’t seen in 12 years. The friend was only there a short while with permission, of course, and the rest of the time I kept to my schedule and my main purpose for being there. The cottage was perfect for all the reasons I needed it to be perfect. Amber was very accommodating with my questions and requests. The cottage was like visiting someone’s grandmother without the grandmother being there. The bed was very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again.

awesome host, very comfortable home. when ever I'm in the area this will definitely be my go to place

Kimberly was a fantastic host! Her place was exactly as described. It was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. She was friendly, responsive, and made sure I felt welcome throughout my stay. I truly appreciated the thoughtful touches and the peaceful atmosphere. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great Airbnb experience!

We have booked Marissa’s home several times because we really like the cleanliness, location and all the amenities that the home offers.

We had a wonderful stay at your house! Our daughter was married this weekend in Springfield. Your home was the perfect place for our family to relax, have fun, and get ready! Great memories were made!❤️

2nd year staying here for my birthday with all my friends and it’s so much fun every time. So much to do while having your own privacy and plans with comfortable rules to abide by. It’s like a new home with a bunch of cool games and amenities, definitely recommend! Great host, leaves you to it and is responsive. Best birthdays ever here.

This is our 2nd time staying. It is a wonderful historical Airbnb. Very comfortable and clean. We have only stay one night going to visit our grandson in Kentucky. I told my husband that sometime we need to plan on staying extra days so we can explore the area. The extras - breakfast items, snacks and water were a nice touch. We will definitely stay here next year.

Great little cozy home on the water. Very relaxing get away

Love staying in a place with a kitchen for work. Perfect place!

Awesome place to stay in Teutopolis. Will definitely stay there again!

This home is so beautiful and elegant. It is wonderfully decorated, comfortable and inviting. The bathroom has a fantastic soaker tub, we were only there for one night or I would have certainly made use of it! Tonya and Shawn were responsive and accommodating. One of the very best airbnb's we have stayed at!

I had a nice time staying over at Laurie’s apartment. She communicated very well and responded quickly to my messages. The apartment is nice and quiet.

What a beautiful place this is! It was so convenient,and the restaurant next door was awesome. Anytime I texted Greg, he replied ASAP. I would recommend this place to anyone.

This was a quiet, private little place to get away from the hustle of the city. Especially if you’re into outdoor activities and/or antiquing, there’s a lot to do just a short drive away. The space was just the right size and all the basics you’d need for a weekend. Highly recommended. We’ll be back.

Great stay! Very convenient location and the host was kind and responsive.

Smaller than a hotel room, so the price/deal wasn’t great. Everything was nice though, and everything listed was available. Host responds quickly when you need something or have a question.

The location was great. About 15 min from downtown. The place was beautiful and clean. I would definitely book with Julia again.

Our stay in Evanston was great! The apartment is close to all of downtown Evanston, the Metra, and the L. Also easy access to NU. Everything was just as it says and the free underground parking is a HUGE plus!

The place was exactly what we needed for a weekend in town for school with the dogs! Barb is lovely and very responsive. Definitely recommend staying here.

The home was perfect for a quick business trip. It was clean and as described. Anne was a great host and easy to communicate with!

I had an amazing stay! Place was very accurate to the post on Airbnb and the host was very polite with clear instructions, and check in! Thank you for providing such an amazing Chicago experience for me and my husband!

What a great find! I'm talking about the room AND the host! The beds were very comfortable and the amenities were all we needed. The artwork was wonderful and the design of the rooms (lamps, table, chairs etc) were great. I especially loved the small room heater, it looked like a mini fireplace, I want one for my room at home! Kaye has thought out what a guest needs with all kinds of extras (covers for the chairs for pets), extra blankets, packet full of local information, and clear instructions. She was responsive when I had questions or needs. I was glad to meet her as well, easy to talk with and a very interesting person who knows Chicago extremely well. If I make it back this way, I would definitely stay here again.

Affordable, quick & easy booking / check-in & check-out…it’s great spot for a quick trip to chicago for a night or two! We used the parking lot area across the alleyway, rented one of the spot hero spaces which was not the most convenient parking situation but it’s the city sooo kinda usual! The ONLY thing i wish that had been mentioned was that it was right next door to a fire dept. one pair of ear plugs were provided but just ya wish i had researched the location just a lil bit more… thanks again for welcoming us to stay :)

Exceeded my expectations! Beautiful view of River, could walk anywhere, loved the front patio and high Adirondack chairs so you can see over railing! And 4 of them. Very clean, felt new, would definitely stay there again and always quick response!! 5 star rating!! Be sure and grab any supplies, good, water, creamer, before you get to Grafton as there are no grocery stores! And limited good restaurants but the place was great!
