Beautiful gardens, flowers and pool.

Wonderful stay in this home. Beautiful flowers on table upon our arrival. Baby gate available to use on stairs, which was a necessity I hadn’t thought of. My grandsons first experience swimming in the pool, and he loved it! Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

Lovely home. We'll be back!

The house was really cozy, and we felt completely at home. They supplied everything we could have needed and more (e.g., provided coffee and tea, assorted spices & condiments, lots of night lights - which were strategically placed throughout the house for safety). The beds and furniture were all very comfortable. Backyard, deck & pool were lovely; it felt very private.The covered porch (with grill) was a really great place to hang out when it rained. Ileana was amazingly fast/responsive to all of our many questions leading up to our stay. She & Erik made sure our 6th Annual Cousins Reunion was a spectacular success. We are hoping/planning to spend #7 there as well! My only suggestion would be perhaps some extra hooks on the downstairs bathroom door and/or in the laundry room for hanging wet towels.

Clean & Peaceful

I can not thank Ileana and Erik enough for the use of their home. We had so much fun with our family. We disconnect from the city (Chicago) living embraced, the peace and quite. Their home was warm, comfortable and full of board games that we enjoyed. The kitchen had everything we needed. We were their for my daughter Graduation and having a home to come to made the trip enjoyable. I would recommend this home to anyone who wants to really unplug. Thanks Ileana and Erik

Wonderful weekend

My husband and I spent the weekend at this wonderful house to celebrate my birthday. The house is extremely comfortable, cozy, warm and has everything you need. The kitchen is equipped with everything needed to make excellent meals. The rooms are beautiful and well decorated, beds comfortable and smelling sheets carefully stretched and tidy for our comfort. Oh my God and the basement sofas, you can rest like baby! We spent a lot of time in the living room in front of the fireplace taking wine and enjoying every minute. As it was near Christmas the Christmas tree was beautiful in the living room, leaving the house even more cozy. As it was cold we could not enjoy the pool nor the deck. But we used the grill to make a delicious meal. We were very happy this weekend at Ileana's house. I would highly recommend renting this place for sure. We look forward to returning to this house as soon as possible. Ileana is a perfect host, always available for any help. She gave us several tips and made our weekend especial, wonderful and made me very happy! Tks Ileana!!

About the host

Hosted by Ileana

We live in Manhattan and use this property as our get-outta-town escape on the weekends!

Why they chose this property

It is our weekend getaway from Manhattan that we would love to share with you! This is a part-time rental (MAXIMUM TWO-WEEK RENTAL, no exceptions); the family uses it very frequently.

What makes this property unique

This is a quiet wooded area, close to local amenities, still retaining that country charm. We love the 4 foot pool (NOT HEATED ) in the summer (OPEN from Memorial Day - Labor Day)!
