Starry Night Cottage was the perfect choice for my stay with my family and dogs. It was so welcoming and had everything you could possibly need for you and your pets to feel right at home, including food dishes for your pets! It’s was clean and the communication with Kimberly was fast and easy. They were currently working on the landscaping outside of the home and fencing in the yard, which will for sure be a huge bonus for your pets! The patio out back was great and the location of the home was stupendous and made it easy to get everywhere! I will definitely be staying at Starry Night Cottage again! Bravo!

About the host

Hosted by Kim Ziyavo

Host profile image
I’m a Midwest native, born and raised in Ohio, and I’ve called Chicago home for over 25 years. With more than 30 years of experience working in non-profits and human services, caring for people has always been at the center of everything I do — and hosting is no different.

My journey into hosting began the same way many great stories do: as a first-time homeowner and landlord in 2015. Since then, I’ve learned firsthand what makes a place feel like home — comfort, clear communication, thoughtful details, and knowing someone genuinely has your back.

I live in a historic 1909 Greystone with my dog, Kali, and my cat, Aslan, so I understand how important it is to have a space that’s welcoming, well cared for, and pet-friendly. Whether you’re visiting for rest, adventure, or a little of both, my goal is to provide a clean, cozy, and stress-free stay where you can truly relax.

I’m very detail-oriented and responsive, and I believe great hosting means being available, transparent, and proactive. If you have a question, need a recommendation, or something unexpected comes up, I’m always happy to help — and if I don’t have an answer right away, I’ll find it.

Thank you for considering my home for your stay. I take pride in creating a space where guests feel comfortable, cared for, and excited to return.

Why they chose this property

Streator, Illinois offers a refreshingly authentic alternative to staying right inside the busy Starved Rock tourist corridor. While Starved Rock State Park is only a short drive away, Streator gives you more space, more history, and a chance to experience a classic Midwestern town that many travelers never get to see.

Originally known as Hardscrabble and later Unionville, Streator grew into a thriving industrial and mining hub in the 19th century. That layered history is still visible today in its historic brick buildings, beautifully preserved homes, and quiet, tree-lined neighborhoods that reflect the town’s working-class roots and resilience.

Streator’s small-town charm makes it easy to unwind. You’ll find local diners, neighborhood bars, antique shops, and friendly faces where people still greet you like a neighbor. After a day of hiking, exploring, or paddling nearby waterways, the slower pace feels like a welcome exhale.

The town also makes an ideal home base for outdoor adventures. In addition to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks, guests enjoy easy access to canoeing, fishing, scenic drives, and charming nearby towns—without the crowds, parking hassles, and higher prices common closer to the parks.

If you’re looking for a peaceful, affordable, and character-filled place to stay near Starved Rock—one that offers local flavor, history, and breathing room—Streator is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

What makes this property unique

Starry Night Cottage was built in 1879 as a worker cottage, offering guests the opportunity to stay in a piece of Streator’s past. Homes like this were originally built for the laborers who shaped the town, and today it blends historic character with modern comforts for a stay that feels both meaningful and cozy.
