Great place for a getaway
Property was cute and neighborhood was quiet, it was exactly what we wanted for an anniversary getaway. Only 2 things could have made it better. Unfortunately the front room television did not work and there were an abundance of ladybugs. Other than that, would recommend!

Cute cottage
This cottage is super cute, outfitted for fun on the lake. It's great for a couple with small kids. The stairs up to the loft are a bit treacherous but the bunkbeds are cute and comfy. The back patio is perfect for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine enjoying the sunset over the pond.

Relaxing family time!
Beautiful and well maintained home in a relaxing river-front community. Ottawa is a nice sized city only a few minutes away and Starved Rock Park is great for hiking and only a 15 minute drive from the home. The second floor loft was a great space BUT the steps were very steep so if you have little ones it may not be the best for them. Also, it got VERY hot up there! Management gave us a fan which helped a lot, but my youngest daughter couldn't sleep on the top bunk up there, just too hot and not enough air circulation so high up. Just a heads up! We would definitely stay again though.

Adorable and clean cottage with a marina view and sunsets.
We were very pleased with this cottage. The only thing was that some things were hard to reach in the kitchen. Sure wish I had a step stool! And the bathroom vent was not working. But overall loved this place!

Nice and cozy rental
This house was perfect for a girls weekend get away! I would recommend that you bring your own dish soap and kitchen towels/dish cloth as there was only one towel for the kitchen. I would recommend to the property owners to install hooks or bath rods for places to hang your towels. Overall, a very nice place and great location if you want to hike at Starved Rock. We loved being on the water and watching the boats go in and out of the marina. Ottawa is a great little town for shopping, hanging out at the coffee shop, as well as the brewery/bar/restaurant.
