Charming 3 Bedroom Ranch by downtown Peoria & OSF!
Good instructions for check in. Clean property with comfortable beds. A few surprises from listing. We were thrilled to see a property with a fireplace but upon arrival, we found a sticker on it that said we could not use. Pretty disappointing feature that should’ve been clearly stated in listing. ...
