The red house
We were pleased to find a location near family. We were disappointed in the interior condition. More extensive cleaning and upgrading needs to be done on the inside. The VRBO needs to be improved for a better quality of lodging.

Cute little house, so nice to have more room than a typical hotel space. Older, but clean! Supportive comfortable mattress and pillows, slept well. Morning light was great for reading in the front room and hubby liked the large TV. Sweet owner left treats in the fridge and a nice card to welcome us. Just 10 min from WIU. We would stay there again!
