"Such a charming property. Very cozy and comfortable. Comfy beds and living room furniture. We stayed for a long weekend for our daughter's wedding and it was perfect for our needs.

Welcome to Redbird Ranch: A Campus Retreat at Illinois State next to the Arena

8/10 Good

"We had an excellent time at the Redbird Retreat! It is the perfect location and an easy walk to campus. The fire pit is awesome and the place was clean! The host was very easy to work with and very responsive to texts. We loved that it was pet-friendly so would bring our pup, Ollie! It was also great to have 2 parking spots. Our only complaints were that it had a faint odor of cats and that it was quite a bit more expensive during Family Weekend compared to any other weekend."
