This space was so perfect for our family of four. The teenagers and adults each had plenty of space for individual activities and as a group we had plenty of space for board games, watching a show, having dinner together, cooking, or anything else that came to mind! Location was perfect for access to Starved Rock State Park and other nearby hiking areas. We appreciated having two full bathrooms, laundry access, and also all the dishes, coffee maker, toaster and amenities we could wish for to make some meals ourselves. We didn’t discover the game cupboard til our last day there but brought our own with us anyway. We had a great time in this space and I already posted a link to it for my Facebook friends in case they also want to come to this area! I also want to mention that the communication with our host was top notch and he was very responsive! Thank you for an amazing stay!

The working fireplaces on both levels made the space cozy on two very cold nights. The Christmas tree was beautifully decorated and lit, and plentiful towels for our family. The space was also spotless.

WE really enjoyed the downstairs gathering space for games and meals. The fireplace did a great job of keeping up cozy at night while adding some ambience. The location near starved rock hiking was spectacular, We enjoyed starry nights and fall colors.

This villa was VERY spacious and extremely clean! The kitchen was very well stocked to facilitate cooking. Enjoyed having 3 tv's equipped with cable so we didn't have to "fiddle" with streaming services.The only suggestions I would make is to have tissues available and stock the bathrooms with single-use shampoo/conditioner/body wash. We had brought some, but usually these things are provided. No complaints, though, as the villa and the resort property were wonderful!

We shared a wall with very loud neighbors, but the very loud a/c covered the neighbor's noise.The furniture needs an update. The pull out couch was not useable, but there was a good air mattress which we inflated so provided the last sleeping space we needed. worked for our large group.The kitchen pans are also in need of an update.
