Weekend With Friends
Adler House was the perfect place for our weekend getaway with friends. With a large kitchen and multiple rooms for gathering, the four bedroom home allowed for both time together and quiet moments on our own. The neighborhood was perfect for long walks and there were several restaurants nearby. The communication with the owners was excellent and check in and check out were a breeze. If we are staying in the area again, Adler House will definitely be our first choice.

Great for family gatherings!
With 5 bedrooms (more if you count use of sun porch areas in warmer weather) and 3.5 baths this property is great for family gatherings! There are plenty of seating areas for people to gather or disperse. There is a large dining room that accommodated 8 of us for one meal. The kitchen is large enough for many to pitch in and has all the necessities for cooking and entertaining a crowd. We made all of our meals there! We arrived to find the lights on throughout and music playing—a very warm welcome!The beds were comfortable and the house was quiet. Van der Veer park was a short walk down the street. The house is old, historic, and charming! The owners have obviously been making improvements and continue to do so. Our only challenge was water pressure, but that is common in older houses and was brought to the owners’ attention with a possible solution. We would definitely return!

Quad Cities Weekend
This is such a neat historic home with lots of room for the 8 of us to spread out and also be together around the table playing games. The weather didn't quite cooperate the night we were planning to have a fire, but there is a fire ring with plenty of wood available and lots of outdoor seating. The backyard is large and fenced, and we were glad to see the cornhole game (even though I am possibly the worst player ever). Communication was great! I still cannot believe how big the bedrooms are, and having so many bathrooms was definitely a plus. Also, one block away is the beautiful Vander Veer park with indoor conservatory. We had a great stay!!

Beautiful Home
This historical home was a great place to have a family gathering. The owner was extremely accommodating, from helping us get bedding for my elderly mother on the main floor to bringing over extra cooking appliances for Thanksgiving dinner! When there was a problem with plumbing, he was there asap to fix it. The house is close to a beautiful park and grocery store which made it very convenient. The house itself is full of beautiful antique furniture and easily accommodated our large
Group. We would def stay here again!

Amazing and comfortable stay
Family members from out-of-state totally enjoyed the comforts of home at Chris’ place for family wedding reception. Fire pit was a hit also. This unique home was so enjoyable and comfortable. Such a joy to stay here. This is THE place to stay in the Quad Cities.

Chris and Sue were extraordinary! The home was immaculate and even more than we expected. Our hosts were accommodating and an absolute joy to be around when we had the opportunity to see them.
My entire group looks forward to the chance to spend more time in the area when we can enjoy the home and get to know our hosts better when we aren't working.

The pictures don't do this property justice! It was more than anyone in my group expected!! The kids kept calling it "The Mansion". Great location as well! We were only minutes from everything we did and walking distance to VanderVeer Park. I would not only recommend to my friends, I will also check this first when I return to the area!!

Great experience with a great host!
The house was beautiful from the moment we arrived. It's spacious and allowed us the ability to all be together, but also ample space to allow us introverts to go our separate ways, when desired. It was clean and as described. Chris was attentive to our requests and was a great host. Could not have asked for a better weekend!

This was truly a 10 star experience(if we could give extra stars) The owners were spectacular and the home was unbelievable. We had a small family gathering and everyone raved about the home. Book this home, you won’t have any regrets! Thank-you Chris and Sue for sharing such a fabulous home!
