We wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. It was the perfect place for our family to celebrate our oldest daughter's graduation. Every detail of your home added something special to the occasion—from the stunning garden to the lovely piano, which made a wonderful backdrop for entertainment and photos.Our children, ranging from ages 3 to 18, kept saying how much they wanted to stay longer. Our youngest even said, “Mommy, I just love our new home.” That says it all! Your effort in preserving the original charm of the home is so evident and deeply appreciated.We truly loved every moment and hope to return again someday.

From start to finish William was communicative and made sure that all of our needs were met and went beyond to provide us such exceptional service. We will definitely stay here again when we need a place to stay in Glen Ellyn. I couldn’t imagine a better experience. Such a clean and beautiful house in a great and safe neighborhood!

It has lovely gardens, a homey front porch, lovely rear deck with a gas grill, 3 beautifully appointed bedrooms and a spacious first floor with music room, library, TV room, sitting room and huge well-equipped kitchen.

We had 8 people and the table accommodated us all. The owner decorated it beautifully for Christmas. The piano filled the house with music for great evenings and the fireplace was perfect. Our family created many great memories here for Christmas. Beds were comfortable. Sleeping our group of 8 required using a pull-out couch, which was fine. The location is quiet and not far from lovely Glen Ellyn town. William was thoughtful and made sure we were comfortable during a particularly bad winter storm. Great stay!

A lovely stay-cation outside of the city with a beautiful clean large kitchen, warm cozy family room, TV/movies, WOOD-BURNING fires, adorable friendly town with great restaurants and shops. My dog was in heaven with the quiet neighborhood, nearby parks and lake and warm fires. One of the bathroom sinks had a minor leak and within minutes of my arrival, the owner informed me of the issue and coordinated a time for the plumber to come. This owner cares and is very considerate!! Easy check in and check out. Already rebooked another trip....seriously. If you work hard, long days in the city this is a perfect retreat for you, friends and your dog, without having to travel very far. ##### Pamela L.

I never wanted to leave the upstairs parlor, what a stunning room! We were lucky enough to experience the first snow of the year, and with the fall colors was amazing. The upstairs bath is a dream, wow what a tub and shower. Beds and linens are super. The light fixtures and antiques all around the house are so nice to look at. So unique. I loved the Bose speakers in the front sitting room, the radio station was already set to a classical station and that was a bonus. The kitchen and amenities, dimmable lighting and comfort are top notch. We loved all the fall decorations, gardens, nice treats and welcoming card from the owner was so thoughtful.

The Davis House is absolutely amazing! We booked this house for our recent trip up to Illinois from Arizona, and we wanted something that was amazing. To say The Davis House is amazing is like saying the sun is bright. Actually, it’s not just amazing, it’s a must-see! We were expecting a comfortable place to live for a week while visiting family. What we got was so much more. It is a traditional historic house, built a long time ago and renovated and decorated with serious skill. It is warm and friendly, and I need to tell you this… you will need time to explore, observe, and enjoy all that is available with this amazing home! The deco is amazing! Everywhere you look, you have to take a minute to enjoy it. The back patio is PERFECT! Allowing you to be a great distance from the quiet street and to enjoy your own special space away from it all. Inside, you get treated with amazing wall art that literally takes you around the world. There are so many places to sit, enjoy your morning coffee, and enjoy the ambience of the room. A library room, rooms with windows everywhere, both upstairs and downstairs. There are so many places to enjoy in this wonderful house. Again, you cannot book this place for a few days. You need AT LEAST a week, probably two to fully enjoy it. Our favorite places were the upstairs room off of the master bedroom, CERTAINLY the magnificent front porch, and the kitchen! OH MY GOD that kitchen!! I am a tech guy that works on technology 24/7, and I did not hardly have an urge to setup my gear and go to work. I just couldn’t! The place was so welcoming and comfortable! I just spent my time wandering around and taking it all in! The kitchen has an incredible stove, an amazing in-wall cabinet for dinnerware and other items, LIGHTED! And so well done! The kitchen sink and stove has plumbing features you will wish you had at home. All with a room with an array of windows that blast the room with sunlight. It was a blessing of experience! The bathroom off of the upstairs bedroom. The shower is incredible, with multiple shower head options and a lot of room to just be happy getting clean. The separate tub and the plumbing fixtures supporting it are something out of Better Homes and Garden. And the sink? And the skylight pane in the room? WOW! The front yard is like a court yard, and you could spend all day exploring it.. And if you get a chance, DEFINITELY check out the neighborhood! Enjoy! We sure did. And we will again.

Beds very comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Neighborhood quiet and walkable. Enjoyed outdoor dining on deck, quiet porch swing mornings, happy hour toasting in the sunroom, playing the grand piano, and cozing up in the living room for a movie. 5 adult family members gathering for graduation from a graduate program at Midwestern University.. Highly recommend! ##### Diane B.

Warm & cozy, yet private. A great place for family/friends to gather. William, our host was personable & accommodating. The neighborhood is beautiful for walking and downtown Glen Ellyn is adorable with lovely shops & restaurants close by. We will be back! ##### Andrea H.
