The Space: Location, location, location!! We have created a home away from home for our family and friends and now extend it to you!

You will share a porch with our other private Airbnb - “Unit B”. Walking distance to everything, our duplex cottage is perfect for two families traveling together that want to be close by each other, but have their own individual house, or anyone that wants to stay in a great location in a smaller cottage in the Heights. It features a full size bed with designer bedding, full bath, and full kitchen. In addition to this, there is a recliner leather chair and comfortable leather loveseat in the living room along with a cozy fireplace to curl up in front of. Our kitchen has everything you would need for a short or extended stay including a toaster, stove, refrigerator, and microwave. We provide basic cooking essentials such as dishes,silverware, pots and pans, and olive oil for your basic cooking needs. We also have a Keurig coffee machine with the assorted accoutrements needed for a fresh brewed cup of coffee or tea. In addition to all of this, you would have a convenient parking spot in the private parking lot, and there is also plenty of additional free street parking. You would have a shared covered porch with our other airbnb unit. This is Unit A on the left. One private entrance (on the left of the porch). You can also rest assure that we are taking extra care to disinfect our space to the highest degree.
Guest access: This is a private unit (Unit A) in a duplex with access in the front of the house. There will be a shared porch with our other Airbnb unit on the right. While staying at our property you will have access to our private parking lot behind the house. To access the parking lot, there is an alley and less of a steep incline if you enter the alley from the North and then turn right into the driveway. In addition, you will receive a keycode that is changed constantly in order to enter the house.
Interaction with guests: We live right around the corner and are available at anytime during your stay. We are available by phone or by text at all hours should you need anything during your stay. Please contact us after reserving to obtain entry instructions for self-check-in with the keypad.
OUR CLEANING PROCESS You can rest assured, we take the utmost care thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting our home. My husband and I are in healthcare and take the utmost care in sanitizing and disinfecting our home. We use hospital grade cleaning products that are virucidal, germicidal, and bactericidal. We also supply disinfecting/sanitizing products and hand sanitizer as well. Our checkout time is technically 11am and check in is 3pm so we have at the very least 4 hours to prepare for you and even more if the previous guests check out early. Check my reviews if any question:)
The Neighborhood: We are located just 5 minutes from Route 150 and Interstate 74 and 10 minutes from downtown Peoria. From our property you can enjoy a short walk to Grandview Drive to see the panoramic view of the Illinois River. In 1910 President Theodore Roosevelt named Grandview Drive the world’s most beautiful drive. It is there that you will see many breath-taking homes lining the roadway including the “castle” home with the guardian dragons that is located near the Peoria Country Club. Or you may want to take a walk on the nearby Rock Island Trail. We are also located just a few blocks from Trefzger’s Bakery which was established in 1861 and is central Illinois’ oldest bakery. In addition, we are conveniently located 10 minutes from OSF Hospital and Bradley University. If you would like a taste of our nightlife, you can literally step out of our front door and be in the middle of the restaurant scene in Peoria Heights. It is here that you will find the bustling sidewalks filled with people and entertainment. As everyone here says, it’s “Happening in the Heights!”
Getting Around: Uber is always available, but you could also just take a few steps to all the restaurants and shops.

It was fantastic hosting you Kelly! Come back anytime!
We enjoyed our stay here. Everything was clean and comfortable. We were in town visiting family so never used the kitchen but it looked like it had everything you would need to cook meals. Shower was strong and hot and bed was comfortable which are important to me. I would stay here again.
This was my first Vrbo and it was great. The accommodations were perfect and it was in a very nice location close to small shops and friendly shopkeepers. It was so nice I extended my stay. Will definitely stay again.

This duplex is in a great area! We could walk to dinner each night, the area felt safe, it was a short drive to the zoo and museums. The home is fully equipped with a full kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedroom with a cozy layout that doesn’t feel cramped.
This is a very nice property that is close to everything, including GrandView Drive. I enjoyed my stay and would not hesitate to book this studio again.
