Lakehouse getaway

This was our second time at this location and we will be back again. The location is out of this world. It feels like you are in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, however, it's right here in Illinois. Plenty of room for extended family to spread out and the lake and fishing is outstanding.

Another great weekend in Chadwick

This is the second year in a row that our group of friends and family have stayed at the property. I would echo everything from the first review without hesitation. Great hosts to work with and a very well-stocked and maintained house. The outside is truly where we spend most of our time with an enormous lot for any activity desired. The pictures are great but don’t do the property justice - it’s a wonderful place to spend time and make memories. Thanks again, Jeff & Vicki!

House very well kept, beautiful views, secluded from everything, private drive way, gated property. Stores 7 mins away. Plenty of firewood. Game room was on point. No bath towels was the only down side, I assumed there will be towels. Great property, definitely added to my favorite, will definitely be back. Thankyou

Quiet getaway

We chose to find a place that looked relaxing and peaceful and away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This property met and exceeded all our expectations. We were able to get away from the busyness of the holiday season and just be present with each other. The walking trails, playground area, ping pong and pool tables were great options for fun entertainment. There was plenty of sleeping spaces and the kitchen had everything we needed. The scenery was spectacular with a beautiful lake and gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. 10/10 recommend to others.

Friend weekend

This property is beautiful. Exactly as stated in the listing. Great canoe. Great Johnboat. We brought our paddle board. A kayak would be fun on the lake. Kids swam off dock in middle of lake. Kitchen is well appointed. Cute bar area downstairs- nice to have an extra frig. Need to bring own bath towels and washcloths. Air conditioning worked well. Guest house was perfect for our teenagers. Multiple TVs and cable were great as well. Plenty of space for a big group. Fire pit with plenty of firewood.

Girl’s Getaway

House was nice and big for our group of 10 ladies. The pond wasn’t swimmable but we did use the canoe. The duckweed covers the surface in the morning and moves over throughout the day so if you are brave enough you could swim in the evening. The paddle boat wasn’t steerable. The upstairs kitchen is well stocked. The only way to get from the ground floor to the upper kitchen is either the spiral staircase or the back outdoor stairs. Tons of nature and animals all over. There was an issue with the water pressure on our last day but communication with the host went well and we tried our best conserve what we could. The house had a few towels but definitely bring your own as well as your own soap/Shampoo. Easy check in process and super private location. Grill is charcoal so bring charcoal if you plan to use. Nice trail system in the back woods.

The description of the property was accurate. Pond is close to unusable for swimming, but fine to use the boats provided. Large yard great for outdoor time. No towels or shower soap on property. Overall, the property was just what we needed and nothing more. We enjoyed our stay.

Family get together

Very nice home, plenty of space for 15 - kids, adults, and 2 under age 18 months. Made it very easy to get in. I text with questions we had and they responded quickly with the answers. Loved all the outdoor seating and fire pit. Bunk house was a hugh hit. All 5 girls fit nicely upstairs to sleep. They had to come over to lake house for the bathroom though. The sandy beach they said was there is more like a place to park the boats. John Boat leaked, we flex taped it so we could use it. Paddle boat did not have a steering mechanism so we took the canoe paddles out with it to steer with. Loved the canoe, ping pong and pool table. Swing set and slide are a nice touch. Did a little fishing. Neighbors on otherside of lake did not bother us with their party's. All around great stay.

Fall motorcycle trip

Property is beautiful. We had 3 couples that we rode from Des Moines over to ride up and down the Mississippi. There was plenty of space and areas to hang out. Only thing I would change is to have towels provided, being on a motorcycle space was limited to pack them. Overall everyone in the group wants to come stay here again!

Great Place

Great family weekend! The place was as seen in the listing. Ton of space for everyone and the boat and canoe was a plus. Caught enough good sized fish to cook up for dinner one night. The lake did have a lot of duck weed, but that is in control of Mother Nature and we knew that going in as per the listing and other reviews. The property is very quiet and secluded, and a lot of nature to see. Our family had a wonderful time and would definitely rent again.

A wonderful weekend in Chadwick

This house had it all for our annual family guys trip. On the inside: plenty of clean beds, beautiful furnishings and very new kitchens and floors. Great to watch TV in the family room(s), enjoy drinks by the bar, and cook anything we needed. On the outside: very well maintained grounds, excellent fire pit area, gorgeous deck and patio area, and a picturesque lake for views 24-7. Our group of 9 was very comfortable for the duration and the amenities exceeded expectations. Communication with the hosts were always answered within 30 minutes, and everything was set up such that we needed no assistance for the entire trip. Thanks Jeff & Vicki for a great time!

Nice property

Our group of 14 (ages 8 through 50+) enjoyed our stay at this house. The kitchen is well stocked. There are two refrigerators (one in the main level bar and one in the middle level kitchen), which is really nice for larger groups. There is a swing set and slide next to a very large firepit. There are two large patio areas with several tables with chairs. There are also many tables for use inside (several stored in bedroom closets) that allowed us plenty of table space for a euchre tournament and craft projects. We enjoyed taking the boat out on the lake, but didn't catch much. The ping pong table and pool table are nice, just be aware that they are in a completely separate building along with the extra 5 twin beds. There is a lot of lawn space to play yards games, too. Some important items to be aware of: * no bath towels are provided * there is also no wifi (but most of our phones were able to get internet access) * there is no dishwasher Our group had a wonderful stay here with lots of great memories.

Amazing, Secluded, Clean

First of all, the pictures of this place , honestly, gave us lower expectations. When we pulled up the longer drive up to the house, it was like we were in a whole new place. The lake and tress are beautiful! When we entered the house, we were amazed at how clean, spacious, and open it was! Lots of space and 2 kitchen areas! Beautiful 2 story windows on the main level with an amazing view of the lake. Lots of light!! The pictures don't do it justice. Game room was good for all the kids and guys. We used the canoe and boat, which were easily accessible and a lot of fun. Overall a wonderful weekend trip!

Western Illinois Lake House

Our family had a great time. Nice accommodations; everything we needed. Very quiet and peaceful. Only complaint is I was told when I asked that the lake was free of algae blooms, which surprised me since it was late July. In actuality, it was about 1/3 covered in algae. In fairness, the swimming area was pretty clear.

Great rural getaway

Our family has visited this property 3 different times. It is a quiet, relaxing and very spacious property. We especially enjoy the big fire pit, swing set, yard for soccer/bocce, the game room and the views from the deck. We plan ahead with any specialty items we will need in the kitchen (the basics are there but we've needed to supplement with items from home). I expect we will be back again next year!

Excellent! The photos don’t do it justice

We had our family Christmas here and it was wonderful. The game room was so clean and most excellent. There was only one pool cue and no darts but I think the owner is addressing this. The house had a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and everything was newer and quite nice. No WiFi but our phones worked so well for hot spot but we didn’t really need it anyway. Having the canoes and row boat was sweet, even in December. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
