Great Weekend Getaway

This place is wonderful and we'd stay again in a heartbeat. The screened in porch overlooking the water and the kitchen were our favorite rooms in the house. We were able to make and share several family meals together and the entire experience was extremely relaxing.

Wonderful property by the river!

We truly enjoyed our stay at this property!! It has everything you could need. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools you need to cook, bake and grill! This is definitely one of the best stocked kitchens we have had. The decor is welcoming and furniture is extremely comfy. We spent a lot of time outdoors and enjoyed the fishing pier, water toys and fire pit. One afternoon we drove a little north and rented a pontoon for half a day and cruised the chain-o-lakes. It’s only a little over an hour drive to Chicago which was nice since we caught a Cubs game on our way back home. We would stay here again and for sure recommend it! Thank you so much for opening your home to us!

Excellent!

This river cottage is an excellent getaway from our day to day busy life. The cottage was better than the photos. It was extraordinarily clean, upscale, fully stocked, full of amenities, easy check in/ check out, and the owners were very friendly and easy to communicate with before and during our visit. The neighborhood is cozy and friendly. The house is right on the water and the yard is fenced and private. They have a shed with water toys to enjoy on the water. We grilled dinner, sat by the fire, and enjoyed the peaceful scenery of the water. One of my favorite times of the day was having breakfast in the screened in porch watching and listening to water. Nearby, there is plenty of activities such as boating, jet ski, horseback, and golfing. We had lots of options to stay as busy or as quiet as we wanted our time to be. We were pleasantly surprised and would definitely consider going back again! 5 stars!

Great Getaway from the Hustle and Bustle

This property offers everything! We couldn’t believe how close this place is to Chicago while still affording my friends and I the perfect weekend getaway from the fast-paced city life. Sav’s property offered just that plus more. This was the right place for us to just relax, de-stress, and bond more. We spent most of our weekend cooking in the spacious kitchen with top-notch appliances. Normally, I’d be so intimidated trying to figure out where everything was but Sav had everything conveniently labeled, thank the heavens. The huge kitchen island provided us with the needed space to cook while sipping wine and catching up. After which, it was an easy transition to the dining area where the conversation naturally flowed. The bar area was perfect for stocking up beverages and strategically placed to quench our thirst as needed. The den/larger living room was spacious and so comfy. The leather couches were perfect for an impromptu game night or watching a movie with the Fox River in full view. My friends and I had never slept better. Two rooms are available and a murphy bed in the smaller living room if a third set up is necessary. The bathrooms were super clean and well stocked. The whole place was really a whole aesthetic vibe and we all felt like we were in a luxury villa. We didn’t get a chance to spend a lot of time out since it was still cold, but would love to be back during the summer time to lounge and sun bathe by the river and swim in the water. The screened in porch and second dining area would be perfect for summer lunches and bbq. We’ll surely be back! Thanks Sav for the hospitality and for sharing your property with us. We loved every single moment of it.
