Stay Review

Overall nice experience but they need some updates in the home such as inflatable air mattress leaks air, water pressure on shower heads to strong, the couch has broken springs, and the upstairs sink water pressure super low, for a more comfortable stay. The area is super nice the state park is super close by.

Our families really enjoyed playing all of the varied games throughout the unit (i.e air hockey, shuffleboard, ski ball, arcade console, Jenga, and cards! The beds and sofa beds were all very comfortable and the unit was very clean. Our host was great at communicating with us and we would love to come back!

Family reunion

Our extended family ate lunch at Starved Rock Lodge but wanted a place to sit around and talk afterwards. My husband and I decided to rent a cabin and specifically chose this one because of the game machines here which was nice because of all the different ages involved. We talked, played cards, ate snacks, and this cabin was perfect! It was nice to have a private gathering space.

This made our Thanksgiving

this is my first time running off of Vrbo and I wasn’t used to the platform. The property manager once I booked was very kind to message me back-and-forth about what time check-in is and the code which was really kind and timely. The property is absolutely beautiful. It is so much fun having all the games in the house. I had my entire family in from Chicago champagne myself from Florida and was able to gather with people we have not seen in a long time. The extra air mattresses in the closet was super convenient. I give 5 stars

Overall, this was a nice place to stay. My kids really enjoyed the air hockey and retro video games. Another plus is that this inside a resort and minutes from starved rock entrance. There are 3 actual beds and two air mattresses. This worked fine for our family but I’m not sure that is clear on the listing. Main complaint is that the sofa is not comfortable and could use replacing. The host was responsive and made check in easy. I would recommend this place and would stay there again.

Starved Rock Getaway

The cabin was very nice and clean. I am not sure the description was correct about housing 13 people? There was only 2 queen air mattresses and one twin/ full which did have a leak and needs replaced. FYI for the owner of the property. Also for the number of occupants there was not enough bath towels. But overall the property was very nice and a good place for a family to enjoy for a starved Rick getaway.

The cabin was very nice,easy to get to and a nice location. My sisters and I had a very nice time. however we had a few disappointmesnts.1- there were no towles in kitchen and not enough bath towles for 8 people. We went out and brought some. the coffee pot was not working good. It took to long to brew. i brought another one. 2-only 1 air mattress would hold the air all night. 3-there was no instructions on how to work the TV. When i called you about it, you said you would try to get someone out to help us and would call me if you got someone. you never called. I went to the cabin next to ours and a nice gentlemen helped us. My sister slipped getting out of the shower. There was not bathmat for the tube or to put on the floor. That would have been helpful. Also a grab bar on the shower would be good. Other than these things the stay was nice.
