We come to Pekin frequently to visit family, so this was my fifth time staying at this property. The house is always clean, and is incredibly consistent. This is a nice, quiet neighborhood and I will gladly book the property again if I am staying in the area.

Stayed here for a week over Christmas/New Years while visiting family, and it was the perfect quiet retreat! The decor was fun, the house was clean, the furniture was cozy, and the neighborhood was quiet. The beds were soft and comfortable, too. I would definitely stay here again.

convenient and well stocked!

I was on a business trip and needed a place to stay that was more comfortable than a hotel and this was it. Lots of streaming channels, keurig coffees, tea, and a kitchen with anything you would need to cook food. The host, Matt, was very responsive to any questions and instructions about how to get in were really clear!

Great stay in Pekin

Property included everything needed to ensure a great stay. Everything was well appointed and the owner went out of their way both with communication and supplying the space to make the stay easy and enjoyable. Small touches such as curtains allowing for the bedroom to be nice and dark were appreciated. There were ample pillows and blankets. The coffee setup was also a nice touch. We would recommend this location to anyone looking for a nice and quiet space to stay in Pekin, IL.

Just what I needed

My stay in Pekin was for medical reasons. Although I am from Pekin, with friends and family living there, my stay involved a medical procedure and a day or so of recovery. The VRBO experience was better than a traditional hotel, as it was more accommodating. This one was located conveniently in a quiet neighborhood that was close to everything that I needed.

Nice Stay!

I enjoyed the residence! The Harry Potter themed decor. Very nice, clean and comfy beds! A little more difficult for my elderly mother getting up and down from nice but soft, low furniture. I would recommend grab bars in the tub/shower area for us older folk. We had one incident of loud music in adjoining duplex but all in all we were there for 5 nights and enjoyed it very much!

House with Harry Potter decor, nice and quiet.

We have spent three nights at the house and really enjoy the stay. The house sits in quiet neighborhood with short walking distance to the park with nice pound. House has well chosen HP decor, not overwhelming but enough to feel the vibe which we really enjoyed. It has everything you need to stay with nice specious kitchen open to the living room. The host takes really good care to make you feel comfortable. It is a short drive to Peoria where we were watching our daughter in track and field events. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you
