2nd Stay at this property
Just as described, clean and comfortable home in a quiet area. Close to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Park for outdoor activities. We spent our evenings at restaurants/bars in Ottawa. Perfect place for us, we will return often.

Home away from home
This a cute, comfortable home. You want for nothing staying here, all you need is your suitcases. You will be amazed by the size of the rooms. I wish Lustron homes, were still being built. Karen is a wonderful host, and answered all my questions immediately. This is such a hidden gem, you would like to keep it a secret, so others don’t know about it, so you can rent it when you need it. Grand Ridge is a great family community, and everyone is friendly. We will definitely stay here again when we return.It is your home away from home.

Weekend at State Parks
Cool retro house and the decor was a clever nod to the period the home was built. Very clean and well-appointed. Close to Starved Rock and Matthiessen State Parks.

50's Era touchstone
This is a beautiful and unique vintage house inside and out. Architecture and 50's enthusiasts will really get a vibe from this gem of a place. It has lots of history that the host has lovingly pictured around the space. You will have all you need to cook, work and rest. The house has updates to the bathroom and HVAC. This home away from home has a low key location in the little quite historic town of Grand Ridge and corn fields. There is a lovely long back lawn with a romantic fire pit that backs right onto a cornfield. This home is a very short drive to all the hiking in the Starved rock and neighboring parks. There are grocery stores and restaurants near by in the historic town of Ottawa. We would love to stay here again.

Weekend getaway
My husband and I recently stayed at this fabulous house for a quick getaway from Chicago. My mouth literally dropped when we walked in the door! Perfectly furnished and decorated. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. My husband and I often stay at hotels in the area while we visit the neighboring towns. I now want to stay at this lovely home for all our future visits! If you are a fan of midcentury modern homes, this is definetly a house you want to rent!

Lustron Home Grand Ridge IL
My husband and I really enjoyed this home. It has a unique charm with its period furniture and decor. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. It has everything we needed for an extended stay including a full sized washer and dryer. We were worried that a metal home would be cold, it was not. It was very warm and cosy. It is located across the street from the grade school and I enjoyed hearing the kids when they were out for recess. I went for many walks around the village and enjoyed seeing some of the old victorian homes. Thank you Karen for opening your home to us. We especially loved learning about the history of a Lustron home. We would definitely stay in this home again.
