Shallowbrook Farm: Where World-Record History Meets Private Luxury

Step onto the land where dreams became reality. Shallowbrook Farm isn’t just an estate; it’s a piece of Illinois history. In 1983, on this very soil and within these storied barns, the original owner raised the world-record-priced horse—a testament to the excellence and inspiring personal success rooted in this property. Shallowbrook offers grand accommodations. Perfect for large-scale hosting, our expansive 10-bedroom manor comfortably sleeps your entire group with a layout designed for privacy, starting with the sleeping quarters. A versatile mix of 15+ beds and bedroom arrangements for all groups. We also offer "Privacy First" with almost every bedroom featuring its own attached bathroom. For our caterers, it includes a massive kitchen featuring commercial-capacity walk-in refrigeration and freezer space to easily accommodate large events and professional staff. A cozy family room anchored by a roaring fireplace, with three staircases throughout the home.

Shallowbrook is home to unmatched recreation & amenities. Whether you’re seeking high-energy competition or a poolside retreat, we offer a private resort experience. Starting with the lower level, we offer a massive recreational hub featuring pool, poker/cards, ping pong, and foosball. Exit the family room through sliding doors and take in the sparkling inground pool and a dedicated pool house stocked for summer fun. While in the poolhouse, grab your tennis racket and make your way to our professional-grade tennis and basketball courts, plus a volleyball net for friendly rivalry ;)

As the sun sets, enjoy the enormous backyard providing a stunning backdrop for outdoor weddings and milestone family reunions.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 7 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 10 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace. Housekeeping is available on request.

We stayed for 4days& 3nights with 6 adult children, spouses and 17 of our 18 grandchildren. The property was perfect for our large group. The inside had been recently refreshed and painted. The bathrooms were all clean. The game room and living & eating areas were large. The pool was awesome as well as the basketball, pickle ball & tennis courts, the volleyball net and the large yard. The owner was very responsive and personable. Check-in and out was easy.
