Historic Oasis - just blocks from downtown Rockford

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed one night and it was perfect!"

Hidden Gem SLEEPS 10+! Children & Pets welcomed!

10/10 Excellent

"A phenomenal place for our family gathering! The mid-October weather was perfect so having great outdoor seating was delightful, offering lovely spaces to visit with each other. Of course everyone enjoyed discovering the unique and unusual places and furnishings used throughout the home to engage and enchant guests. Our host quickly responded to a couple of questions I had, which makes such a difference on a first stay somewhere. Everything from arrival and entry to check out was set up to be easy and enjoyable for guests."

Holiday Inn Rockford(I-90&Rt 20/State St) by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The bed was so comfy and the linens were soft and cozy. Felt good after many hours of traveling in the rain!"

Clayton House Motel

10/10 Excellent

"All good 👍"

Cerro Vista Estate/Indoor Pool/Hot Tub/Game Room

8/10 Good

"This is an amazing house. I came here with my husband and two boys (4 and 1), my brother and his kids (5, 7), and all of the grandparents to celebrate my son's 4th birthday. The house is very comfortable for hosting a large family, with soft beds and linens, ample bathrooms and so much for the kids to do! From swimming every day in the pool to playing in the game room or just running around the large backyard, the kids had a blast!Location was also great for the family with a lot of great things to do from the children's museum to an amazing pumpkin patch!Couple of things I would have wanted to be aware of especially with a 1 year old and elderly guests:- There are a a number of steps coming into the house. There is a bedroom on the ground level but it doesn't have a door and is not really the most ideal. The next bedroom on the main floor only has a half bathroom. - There are leveling steps to the kitchen and down to the living room. Easy to trip on for both old and little legs- There are TVs everywhere - this is a great thing on one hand but on the other, it created lots of issues. Remotes were all missing, hdmi cables didn't work etc. - Kitchen lacked a lot of basic things for feeding a large family (serving bowls, cutting boards, etc)- Kids/baby supplies were light. Lastly, the management company was pretty good to work with once we were in the house but prior to checking in, it was a bit of a high-friction experience."

Luxury Garden Retreat • King Bed • Near Anderson Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"My family of 5 stayed here for a week to visit family and friends. I grew up in this area of Rockford in the 80s/90s and it's pretty much the same. We chose this for the location being close to family, the kids could walk to Marsh Park to play soccer, sidewalks 100% of the way to Bloom playground. Nice walk to Edgebrook Farmers Market, Highcrest Gray's IGA and Great Harvest (and Possessions Consignment is a gem worth checking out!). The neighborhood across Highcrest (Hawthorn Hills) has some of the most beautiful homes in town - highly recommend a walk through to marvel at the variety of architecture styles and beautiful landscaping. And of course Anderson Gardens!Host thought of everything so we could focus on our visit. We never ran out of TP, paper towels, garbage bags or dishwasher pods. We had ample towels and plenty of hooks to hang dry after use. BONUS was washer/dryer to do a couple loads halfway through the stay - and no mildew/mold like other rental front loaders we've stayed in. Comfortable beds, soft rugs underfoot. Home was built in the 30s so you have old house quirks but it's clean...our socks weren't filthy after walking around on these floors (I don't know the last short term rental or hotel I have been in where I didn't want to burn our socks after our stay - IYKYK). All of these seemingly little things make a difference and allow one to focus on the reasons for their stay. Location, attention to details, cleanliness make it a place I would stay in again!"
