A wonderful escape
We really weren’t able to stay as long as we wanted to, but Marlene’s place is just fantastic! My 220 something year old kids stayed with me and there’s a hot tub, a bunch of arcade games and so much wonderful outdoor space!

A Fun and Unique Property
We six had plenty of room and a comfortable stay. The decor was amazing, a very fun surprise. Sadly, the weather was too cold to spend time in the gorgeous grounds. The location was good and we were able to explore Rockford.

I had me and a few of my friends stay here for my 21st birthday and it was absolutely amazing!! The place was super clean l, spacious, and had plenty of games and toiletries for our use.

Great find in Rockford!
We needed a meeting point as we were attending a wedding at the nearby Anderson Japanese Gardens. This awesome listing fit the bill perfectly, and allow us to have a private place to retreat to before and after the event. Marlene was the most communicative host I’ve ever had and the property is in fantastic shape.

Great Rockford Staycation!
The Sonoma House captured my attention by the vibrant photos in its listing, but seeing it in person was even more captivating! Calling it "eclectic" is an understatement, but the house has definite style, even swagger! It boasts a confident, distinctive, and captivating style which made it perfect for our group to have a great time.

Easter Getaway
House was great, very large, everything you would need to relax and enjoy your stay. Backyard is amazing and great place to gather and hangout. Neighborhood isn’t perfect but never felt unsafe, appreciated the large fence and ability to park inside the fence. Overall great time would definitely stay there again.

Wish we could’ve stayed longer
Your place was absolutely amazing. The efforts put in to decorate did not go unnoticed. I absolutely love the chessboard. The little nook in the kitchen was a cute touch. The basement as you know was a big hit with everyone. Thank you for opening up your home. It was just a beautiful place. We were not ready to go but reality calls .

It looks like Marlene and her creative self has been working very hard for many years to turn this house into the magical, artistic and fun place that it is! We have stayed in some amazing places through the years, but NEVER anyplace like this! It is magnificent! It’s a variable museum and we LOVED it! The surrounding outdoor spaces are also wonderful. Thank you for letting us stay in this beautiful house.

Is truly a hidden gem
This home is decorated amazingly, from details in fireplace and layout to all the various decor throughout, so much so that in our 3 day stay we noticed decor we missed even on day 3. The owner is very responsive and helpful. The home is very private, even the place to park is inside a fence making it feel private and secure. We will return.
