Comforts of home

Cute and fun house. Needed some washcloths, dishclothst and new bed pillows. Two us were elderly and to go down steps was too challenging without a handrail. Would like to stay again at some point in future. Thank you

About the host

Hosted by Scott & Tressa Vreeland

Born and raised in Central Illinois. I live in town with my husband and two girls. My husband works in Real Estate so it seemed fitting that I have a few homes to share with travelers. I love fitness and sunshine. Owning property to share on the water is almost as good as the ocean itself.

Why they chose this property

We have a few homes all on the water and there is nothing better than that water view. It's a quiet neighborhood, with the most amazing neighbors. You will not feel like you are in Illinois at our homes.

What makes this property unique

If you are looking for an escape, but can't get to the coast, then you'll love it here. Peace, quiet, nature, water view, is what I call pure relaxation.
