About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Mayor's Manor - with everything you need in a homebase get away. Pet friendly.

The open concept of this property with large deck, privacy fenced in yard, and large 1 car garage (it's actually a 2 car, but only 1 stall is available) make it ideal for almost any occasion. Whether you are in town for a wedding, fishing tournament, hunting season, Bald Eagle watching, visiting Nauvoo (5 minute flight if you're a crow or 30 minute drive in a car), or just enjoying one of the greatest states in the nation, this property in historic Montrose will not disappoint. It's physically located walking distance from several parks, ice cream shop, local watering hole and eatery, and boat ramp.

There are security cameras located in the garage, the fenced in yard, and under the garage overhang looking at the backdoor and deck area. Curious what they see? The monitor for the cameras is in the house and available to view live. Please do not select "alarm" on the cameras. It is loud and the the neighbors won't appreciate it. There are also 2 cameras in the basement pointing straight down at the sump pumps to alert the owner if there is water in the basement. There hasn't been water since June 2023. If these are unacceptable, I can remove the battery during your stay as long as you check the basement if/when it rains. 2 of the other cameras on the monitor are physically located at 300 Spruce Street in a gymnasium.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Great home base!

We had a great time! Well stocked kitchen, with pans, serving ware, dishes, appliances- it had it all to feed our family after long days geode hunting! A very well cared for home and really kind communicative hosts. We appreciated the organization and they had just the right balance of everything you need with lots of room to relax and hang out. Would stay again!

Great stay in Montrose

My stay was a combination of work and pleasure. The owner was very receptive to all my questions and made sure that everything was great during my stay. The place was immaculate and the beds/bedding were extremely comfortable. It was great having a 2 car garage available to park in as well.
