Convenient, comfortable
This is our second stay at this property. It works great for our family of four. My son enjoys sleeping on the couch. There are so many restaurants within a mile or two. We used the grill this time, so you don't have to eat out all the time. Tom is readily available should you need his assistance.

It was great!!
Tom was a great host and went above and beyond anything we expected. The apartment was a great find for our visit and had everything we needed. It was quiet, clean and plenty of space. It was also near grocery store, gas station, and downtown area with many restaurants and shopping malls. If we are ever in Rockford again we hope to stay here again!! Thanks Tom for everything!!

Stylish abode with owners who thought of everything
I was surprised to find a vacation rental at all in Rockford and was thrilled to have stumbled upon this property. Located in the back of a barber shop, it has an unsuspecting exterior that opens up to a quaint stylish apartment that has been remodeled to include the cutest details with the guest in mind. The sling TV was just installed before our arrival, the bathroom was loaded with toiletries, and the kitchen was stocked with light groceries so we were able to enjoy breakfast every morning without having to do any shopping. We stayed a few nights in January during sub-zero temperatures, and the heat was fighting to meet the temperature at which we set the thermostat. We are used to a much warmer climate so the temperature would probably have been fine for other midwesterners. Highly recommend this rental. The interior decorating keeps you intrigued, and the attentive owners make you feel welcomed.

Comfortable & Cozy
We stayed here over Christmas 2017. The owner, Tom, was very responsive to our questions and went out of his way to help us with our concerns even whilst away himself at Christmas. He even decorated the living room for Christmas! We very much appreciated the extras such as the welcome basket, groceries in the fridge, etc. The place is, generally speaking, spacious, comfortable and cozy. We were visiting family over the holidays and the place was very conveniently located. The wi-fi worked great. We appreciated the ability to be able to watch Netflix during our downtimes.There was a major cold snap while we were there and the furnace worked well; however the property itself is a bit drafty so was always on the cooler side and the floors were quite cold. There's no alarm clock in the bedroom. We would have personally liked it if there was local TV (a digital antenna may have solved this inexpensively.) Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay here & would likely stay here again, when Rockford isn't in the middle of a deep freeze!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
In addition to my own properties, I am proud to now be managing another amazing place in Rockford— The Long House. I have nearly 7 years of hosting experience on VRBO (and the A platform). It started at my Chicago condo where I welcomed over 100 stays. Then in Rockford at the house I grew up in. Inherited in 2016, there are now 3 units all under the same roof including my Dad's 50-year-old Barber Shop, which is available to rent as a suite. The property is located near Rockford, IL in Cherry Valley. I am a freelance art director/graphic designer and a professionally trained chef. I enjoy travel, good food and adventure. I love to explore new places. I enjoy the arts, cultural and historical attractions... but I also like to kick-back and relax on a beach or poolside with an umbrella drink in my hand.

Why they chose this property

This is a quirky area on the outskirts of Rockford (in Cherry Valley, IL). It's a mix of rural, commercial and retail—and while not the most scenic neighborhood around, I can't emphasize enough how convenient it is.

So close to everything anyone would need— a great bar & grill (Drink), a pizza place, a Chinese restaurant, a wine and cigar shop, a pack & ship store and a dry cleaner are all steps out the door. Eggsclusive Cafe and Kegel's—the world's oldest Harley-Davidson dealership has a great diner for breakfast and lunch (and there's always a classic Harley on display). Walgreens, Circle K Gas & Convenience Store, Several fast food places as well as Schnuck's grocery store are all in the immediate vicinity.

Finally there is Cherry Vale Mall, a major regional mall—with Macy's, JC Penney, H&M, Barnes & Noble, a food court, Titled (Bowling, arcade games, laser tag, bumper cars, miniature golf, food & drink)... and over 130 stores. Menards is directly behind the property and has some great deals on grocery items. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor is 3 mins away.

Charming, historic downtown Cherry Valley is 5 mins away with restaurants and bars, Cattle & Cream (a great ice creamery and butcher shop), a post office a nice library and a an apple orchard. Baumann Park is great for walking and is connected to the path system located across the street. There's also new YMCA just minutes away for those that would like to get some activity in.

In addition to the things listed nearby, Mercyhealth Sportscore II, Indoor Sports Facility and the new Mercy Hospital Campus are 12 minutes away. Rock Cut State Park is 15 minutes away. For being in the middle of everything, you'll find the apartment amazingly quiet and private.

What makes this property unique

There is a history to this property that I will gladly tell any guest! This is my childhood home. I've inherited it... and getting it back up to snuff has been a labor of love.
