Beautiful House
Very comfortable in an amazing area. Very close to multiple Parks and trails. The tub was a great way to relax and the bed very comfortable. Martin is the best host that I've had a pleasure of dealing with and I travel a lot if that tells you anything. He's very accessible and seems to truly care that you have a perfect stay. I can't wait to bring the rest of the family!

Starved Rock Fall Get Away
Nice place. Awesome location for a Starved Rock Adventure. Only issues…(1) Need better/bigger cooking pans, (2) all the screens fell off when we opened, and (3) had some late night partiers the last night of our stay. Wasn’t sure how to contact someone that late (3 am) to shut them down. Would definitely stay again, but would inquire about protocol for addressing the quiet hours non-compliers.

Exceptional place to stay near Starved Rock
This is by far the best place I have stayed near Starved Rock. The villa was spotless. The bedrooms were large and beds were very comfortable. The 2 full bathrooms were large as well. We cooked several meals and everything was available that we needed. The location was perfect. Minutes to Starved Rock to hike and to the small towns around the park. I had several questions and Matin answered immediately. I would highly recommend this place to stay if you are in the area, and I would book this place again.

The villa was very spacious and clean & had everything we needed. The location was excellent... right by the Grand Bear Resort and very close to the Starved Rock entrance. Martin was extremely responsive with my questions.

Best host ever
We have stayed in many VRBOs around the U.S., and Martin was by far the best host in terms of communication, responsiveness, and helpfulness. (To be clear, we've never had a negative hosting experience, but Martin stands out among a very positive group.) The property is great, spacious and well equipped. The location is excellent -- about a mile to the state park entrance, and walking distance (virtually across the road) to the parking lot for the St. Louis canyon. The Starved Rock cabins and lodge are iconic, but Grand Bear is better for anyone looking for a full kitchen and multiple bathrooms.

Great time and great location! We did get in on the first night adter dark, and the building numbers do not have lights so it's hard to find in the dark. Otherwise all was great!

Drains in both bathroom sinks were very slow with debris from previous tenants in the traps. Some lightbulbs were burnt out in lamps and a few bugs were present in the unit. Great location though in quiet area with comfortable beds and good price so the "issues" were doable for the two nights we were there.
