Family Holiday Get-Away
The property was very nice and the home very comforable. The kitchen was well stocked but quite small for a large group. Two full and one half baths were not great for ten people. Family had a great time being together.

Fun family time
We had a great stay! The space was perfect for our family of 10. We liked having the main floor bed room for grandparents and a nice large dining space for Thanksgiving. The kitchen is small but still workable. We liked having the extra refrigerator in the garage so we could bring all the food we needed for our long weekend. The living room and lots of places to sit and a working gas fireplace. We really liked the touch of the Christmas tree with decorations and lights to add a festive touch. We had plenty of dishes and serving things to work it all out. Thank you Doug!

Practically perfect in every way!
Beautiful, charming, handcrafted woodwork and cabinetry throughout gave it an English cottage feel. Perfect for the wooded surroundings, nestled on a hillside. Quaint, enchanting and very unique. Also cozy, and homey and lots of room. A very special place.

Great communication
Excellent pre-visit communication, but there was confusion regarding the number of beds. Listing indicates 2 sets of bunk beds, but there was only 1 set.

Great accommodations
Great place to stay. The Manor House was located in a private setting in the woods on a secluded road on top a scenic hilltop along the Illinois river valley. Checking in was easy and accommodating. The Manor House was stocked with everything you will need for your stay. The decor was unique and well kept. The house was clean in every aspect. By far the best place we have stayed in the Peoria area to date. I hope to stay at The Manor House next year.

Disc Golf Getaway
This beautiful home was perfect for our group who traveled to the area for a large disc golf vacation. The home is large enough to give everyone their own private space, yet it has many great community spaces for spending time together. This clean, well maintained manor is perfect for any group.

East Peoria Manor House
Family wedding nearby. Great to have family able to stay together. Accommodations were good and comfortable. Plenty of towels and well stocked kitchen. Clean. We experienced however an invasion of sugar ants in the kitchen. Covered items on the counter were covered with them. By the second day they had advanced to the upstairs bathroom. Puzzling because there was no food or drink there. This problem needs to be addressed.

The home and grounds were great for what we did there. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy everyone! Great place, secluded, private. Only issue was lots of ants in kitchen area when we arrived, but everything else was great! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Beautiful accommodations and location in the woods. Sitting on the porch and listening to the birds in the morning was an added perk. We heard vireos, robins, wrens, sparrows, woodpeckers and many more. The house had everything we needed for a great weekend.

great experience!
We stayed at The Manor House so we could all be together while in town for a wedding. Our host was very responsive and the house was so cozy and warm. It was so great to all be together in one place. Most of us arrived the night before the wedding but our son and his girlfriend arrived from California the morning of. We were ready for them with a giant breakfast for all. They waited until we were all together to announce their engagement!! So special! We will be searching VRBO for a place in California to all stay together for their wedding next summer!

Beautiful, Relaxing home
My husband, myself and my mother-in-law stayed here with our adult children and spouses (9 of us) for my daughter's wedding weekend. It was delightful and a perfect setting to relax when we had a little down time. The home is gorgeous and has so much space. The host was great and very easy to contact. We would recommend it to anyone who is staying in the Peoria area! Thanks for opening your amazing home to us!

Girls Cousin Reunion
This house was great for our girls cousin reunion. The house was very well equipped with kitchen supplies, towels, bedding, paper products etc. The number of bedrooms was great for our group of 12 ladies. It was a rainy weekend so we didn’t get to walk around the property or enjoy the fire pit, but it looked nice. We had a very enjoyable weekend!

Family Stay for Wedding
We came in from three different states to have family time and to attend a wedding! Since we live in three states, it was awesome to have a quiet, home to stay in!! I wish the decks had been swept, but the home was beautiful!! For a family of 10 and a 8 month old, it was a perfect gathering spot!! Other family came for a brunch before the wedding and we hosted 18 people easily!!! The hosts were so easy to work with and communicate with!!! We would stay here again!!!

Great Graduation Gathering house
This beautiful home in the woods was perfect for our parents and siblings to join us to attend our daughters college graduation. We enjoyed the peacefulness of the large year from the front porch and relaxed and visited in the spacious sun room. The well stocked kitchen with great appliances and large dining room made it perfect for cooking and feeding our family. Thank you for sharing your families home with us.
