Property manager was super easy to get into contact with and amazingly accommodating (we were traveling with a boat and trailer in addition to our vehicle). We had no issues at all, but I could see how one may be “confused” for getting to the location/door \*IF\* they did not read the instructions correctly - I know how some people are about skimming the content sometimes… don’t do that and you’ll be perfectly fine! ##### Britni Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rochelle Oct 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication New unit with all the amenities. ##### Rochelle Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Days Inn by Wyndham Charleston](https://www.expedia.ca/Effingham-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Charleston.h190673.Hotel-Information) > > [Our Happy Place On The River | 1 Bed, 1 Bath](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Our-Happy-Place-On-The-River-1-Bed.h46948399.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn O'Fallon](https://www.expedia.ca/Collinsville-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-OFallon.h45481421.Hotel-Information) > > [Home is on the original 1926-1930 Route 66 alignment](https://www.expedia.ca/Girard-Hotels-Home-Is-On-The-Original-1926-1930-Route-66.h42564987.Hotel-Information) > > [White Oak Tree House by Garden of the Gods in the Shawnee National Forest](https://www.expedia.ca/White-Oak-Tree-House-By-Garden-Of-The-Gods.h88731082.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites Marion I-57](https://www.expedia.ca/Carbondale-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites-Marion-I-57.h5156103.Hotel-Information) > > [Bel Air Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Collinsville-Hotels-BEL-AIR-MOTEL.h41376730.Hotel-Information) > > [Wye Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Clinton-Hotels-Wye-Motel.h91598410.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Bear Resort at Starved Rock](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Grand-Bear-Resort-At-Starved-Rock.h1500830.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollywood Casino Joliet](https://www.expedia.ca/Joliet-Hotels-Hollywood-Casino-Joliet.h6289328.Hotel-Information) > > [Stoney Creek Hotel Peoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Peoria-Hotels-Stoney-Creek-Hotel-Peoria.h1139932.Hotel-Information) > > [Suite Dreams Motel Mattoon I 57](https://www.expedia.ca/Effingham-Hotels-Suite-Dreams-Hotel.h15340340.Hotel-Information) > > [Walking Distance To Marina in Historic Golconda](https://www.expedia.ca/Golconda-Hotels-Walking-Distance-To-Marina-In-Historic-Golconda.h76550094.Hotel-Information) > > [Relax Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Relax-Inn.h8115498.Hotel-Information) > > [XCHNG King Bed Luxury Downtown, XCHNG.
