Cozy 3-bedroom home on the waterfront, dog friendly!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (22)
"We love this space so much that it’s our second time staying here. Right on the river, isolated and private with just one house next door and very very peaceful. Took the dog and he swam from sun up to sun down. Just be careful when the river starts to flow, it is fast. But even just sitting on the dock watching him swim was enough for us. Already planning a trip next."

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (7)
"We were looking for a spot where we could hang out as a family of 16 coming from 7 spots around the US and Canada. This house worked well with plenty of bedrooms for adult children couples with ensuite bathrooms. Large bunk room for children, in door game/activity space and lots of outdoor space with a great pool for activity. The kids loved the over-the-top palace feel of the mansion. Kitchens were very functional as we ate every meal in. Lots of places to sit and eat. Company was very good...

History and Luxury on the Kankakee River.

"The pictures do not lie! This home has amazing historic charm and the river view was fabulous. We have stayed in quite a few short term rentals and this was by far the cleanest property we have experienced: no dust, dirt, or grime to be found anywhere. Shari, property owner, was so easy to communicate with and greeted us on arrival to give us instructions and answer questions. She has thought of every detail down to conveniently placed extension cords, makeup wipes, and a notebook full of...

Lyle and Taylor present- The Comfort is Amazing!!
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (20)
"Was nice and spacish so was able to support my family visiting during the night which was really nice. Was also super close to alot of places to eat and overall nearby which made getting stuff super convenient. My only issues was the floor were kinda dirty so my feet got a little black from walking on the wood. There was also opened season packets ontop of the fridge which thought was odd. Overall though was a very nice experience and made for a nice trip."

Comfort Inn Bourbonnais near I-57
2.5 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very good, (1003)
"Debbie, the staff at check-in, was fantastic and took extra time to help connect me to my Choice options and made me feel so welcome. To be honest, a number of electrical plugs in the room did not work, but because Debbie was so warm and friendly, it did not negatively impact my overall rating of my stay. Kindness matters. Also the pool and hot tub were very nice!"
