Family Vacation
My husband and 14 month old came from St Louis for a long weekend. I’m originally from Streator, and this location was the best in order to feel like a vacation and go to Chicago for a day, while still being close to see family. It has a true getaway feel, has the easiest access to the pool, great views, and lots of space. I know we will be back!

Great alternative to hotel
My husband and I needed a place to stay for three nights with our pup. It wasn’t a vacation as we were both working however we’re familiar with heritage harbor and what a lovely resort it is and decided to stay at a cottage that was pet friendly versus going to a hotel. It was great having our own space with kitchen and baths and enjoyed our privacy and our peace and quiet. We’d love to come back during a warmer season so we can enjoy the boating and all of the outdoor recreation this area has to offer. The cottage was lovely and very homey.

Skipping stones was great. The cabin housed our family of 6 comfortably. Overall area is very nice with walking distance to very good restaurant, Red Dog. Will definitely consider staying again when visiting Starved Rock.
