Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Property was very clean and beautifully decorated in a farmhouse style. Very cozy and comfortable! Came stocked with everything you would need. We had fun at nearby Aikman Wildlife Adventure in Arcola, Kayaking in Lake Charleston, hiking in Fox Ridge State Park a visit to Amish country in Arthur, IL. The kitchen, living and dining room were very spacious! The bathroom was very tiny so if staying with 4 adults - be prepared for this. Also there was a strange odor right outside the front entry and on the front porch. Maybe an animal urinated there. Owner may consider spraying urine odor control and planting things like lavender and rosemary to ward off animals from the property.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2026
