This was my second day at the property, and it was just as great as the first.I don’t think you can find another place in the Byron area with a better view and location.Ann made check-in easy and was available if I needed anything, which I didn’t, because the property has everything you need.I can’t wait to stay here again.

Everything we wanted to do, was a 10-30 minute drive away. It was pretty cool out, but we couldn't keep ourselves from walking the lake path across the street. It's just too beautiful to not experience it close up. There was quite a few lady bugs crawling on the walls and ceilings. They're harmless and didn't bother me one bit. I could use a bit of good luck. LolOur stay was nice and quiet and we appreciated Ann's hospitality during this time. Maybe consider adding more essentials to make the stay more enjoyable and convenient. Consider supplying aluminum foil, ziploc bags, filtered water pitcher, tupperware or glassware to store leftovers during our stay or even a picnic at the park, a deck of cards, qtips, floss and maybe toothpaste..... Just a thought/ suggestion. But would definitely stay again, we'd just need to pack alot more, I guess. Thank you Ann!!!

Lovely Byron Stay

Communication with the property manager was excellent, we always had quick replies every time. The property is located in Byron opposite the river which was lovely. There are pathways for biking and running which were great for my husband and friend who were competing in the Rockford half Ironman. The house was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. (Although the toilet roll had the thinnest paper I have ever seen!). The location was awesome as it was near Rockford and we enjoyed the Sundae Social and Hairy Cow Brewery (great wings!) in Byron. Would highly recommend this VRBO!

Simply the Best!

This is the third or maybe fourth year we have stayed at this wonderful home! I love the ease of access, timely communication with the owners, gorgeous views of the river, easily walkable to various stores and restaurants, and only seven minutes drive to our event! The home is spotless and offers all the amenities you could need! We will definitely be back next year!
