One of the best rentals you will encounter!
Aneta’s property is truly lovely and the decor is amazing! The seasonal decorations were not only adorable but such a surprise. The condo is larger than it appears in photos and we loved the open concept. Aneta supplies everything you would need for your stay. The linens are high quality and plentiful. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and there are cozy blankets everywhere. The only negative was that we had to leave. We will definitely book this property again when we visit Starved Rock. Thank you, Aneta, for sharing your condo!

This is our second time staying at the property and should be no reason that we won’t book for a third year moving forward. We absolutely love the property and its close proximity to Starved Rock State Park and the town of Utica.

Great weekend away
We really enjoyed our stay. The property was extremely clean and well taken care of. We used the kitchen and everything was stocked and in good condition. The villa was still decorated for Christmas, which was nice for the lit trees. We enjoyed the gas fireplace and indoor games. It was super cold out this weekend, so we spent more time at the villa than expected since we could do our planned hikes. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Villa Unit
I was solo on this stay, but will definitely bring my family back for a stay. There is plenty of space for 8. The kitchen is fully equipped. I like the breakfast bar for 3 and table with seating for 6, too. One bathroom has walk-in shower. Gas fiireplaces on both floors. King bed, chaise lounge, & whirlpool bath in master bedroom. Second bedroom has 2 queen beds. Both have TV. Overall it was a wonderful place to reflect, enjoy, nature, and relax. The host was wonderful!

Clean, comfortable, and well equipped
We stayed here for 2 nights for a wedding, and it was perfect. The beds were comfortable, and were piled high with soft blankets and fluffy pillows. My kids enjoyed playing all the various games at the house including the putting game, mini shuffleboard, big jenga, and so many more. Our time here flew by! The house was also immaculately clean. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Clean and Cozy
This simply adorable villa met all our needs. Location: We were in town for a wedding at the Starved Rock State Park which was literally less than a five minute drive away. We went back and forth multiple times throughout our stay. The villa exudes comfort with its many luxurious and fine touches. Anita was prompt with her communications and her directions on how to weave our way back in to the villa were spot on. We highly recommend this villa.

Beautiful and cozy
This was the perfect location for hiking, dining, wine tasting and added bonus it was October Fest. Was very quiet being tucked back in a corner which made it very relaxing. Such a beautiful place. Every detail was thought of from decor, games, kitchen and even a little chocolate as a welcome gift. Loved the vanity in the master. Nice added touch.😍Would definitely stay again!!
