Stunning home, plenty of room to spread out. We had a Thanksgiving celebration there and the location was ideal for a convergence of families from the Midwest and East Coast. High quality everything in the house. The pictures do not lie, it is as lovely as what you see here.If you are making big meals they have absolutely everything that you need in the kitchen x2..so don't fret. Hosts are responsive any time of day but we didn't need to reach out much as things were exactly as expected. We look forward to returning

A dream property inside and out

You will not find a more beautiful property with everything a family or group could want. The property is an oasis conventiently located in Rockford and easy to access from Chicago. The house is exactly as described only better. Expansive and well equipped kitchen. Plentiful and comfortable bedrooms and conveniently located on two floors. First flior bedrooms ideal for those who don't want to climb stairs. Multiple sitting and living areas. Lovely outdoor spaces with plenty of land to enjoy. Game room and movie room perfect for kids and adults. Don't miss the adorable children's reading nook stocked with books for young readers. Plenty of onsite parking. Bathrooms could be improved but we made it work. More towels would be nice. Some remotes for TVs were missing but we figured out workarounds. A few lights were tricky but the host was responsive to help us figure them out (except in the in-law suite).Overall, it was a wonderful experience in a dreamy home. We'd come again!

Excellent spots for all ages

We can’t say enough good things about this home. We traveled with a group of 5 families that have been friends for a long time. The pool was absolutely perfect and there were great spots to eat, play games and hang out. The couches were comfortable and cozy. The kids enjoyed playing pickle ball in the garage and the movie room. The host was over the top in addressing any issues and we have stayed in many vacation spots. His willingness to respond and quickly handle anything was notable. We were so grateful. The spot is also close to anything you need. We would definitely stay here again.

The house is stunning!

We stayed at the house just after Christmas to celebrate the holiday with our family. We had 23 people (adults and kids of all ages). The house was comfortable for all of us, including sleeping arrangements. We had plenty of space and enough separation for quiet time when needed. The 2 living rooms were very comfortable and had tv’s, all the bedrooms also have TVs which was really nice. The kitchen is fully stocked and had everything we needed. We played pickleball and enjoyed the hot tub too. We took the kids to the children’s museum. We will definitely return for another stay! Thanks Devin!

Lovely grounds

The property is well located and the grounds are beautiful! The house is okay. For the amount of beds upstairs for sleeping there is only 1 bathroom. The number of overnight guests does not match well with the amount of showers. The house was warm and sometimes uncomfortable at night for sleeping. We never used the pool or downstairs.

Family gathering - wonderful stay

We held our annual family gathering for 22 - 10 adults and 12 children - in this property this year. All in all, we'd return for another visit next year. The grounds and landscaping are very attractive. The interior is large, with many separate gathering spaces and places to escape for some private time. There are fewer bathrooms/showers than bedrooms, so several folks had to share bathrooms. The pool, pool house and hot tub were real hits for our kids. There were plenty of seats outside, although several were weather worn. It was easy to hold common meals in the dining areas. We used the gaming rooms downstairs frequently. We had trouble with some appliances, but Devin (host) was responsive via the VRBO app.

Family gathering

I would give it 5 stars but for a few small things. The property is huge and well kept. a little more attention to the lighting would be beneficial. some of the family had difficulty seeing the entry drive. there were light fixtures out there that were not on and the groundskeeper did not know how to make them work. the light at the entrance near the garage was also not working and a trip hazard due to darkness there. all in all I would recommend it highly. In the summer it would be great with the use of the pool!

Recent stay review

I dont want this to be public. Beautiful home. But wasn't very clean. E.g., Some dishes in cabinets had food on them and otherwise were dirty. Very dusty everywhere. Deck furniture covered in leaves. It was odd and annoying that landscapers came out both Sat and Sunday with their loud machinery that interfered with privacy on the property both days; they came up into deck and blew leaves for 10 mins straight while guests in hot tub so that couldn't talk and awkward to have an outsider invade privacy. And they only cleaned off leaves on deck late Sunday afternoon so couldn't use the furniture entire weekend.
