Good cabin for families
Overall, my stay was good! The listing is slightly misleading with it stating it sleeps 13 people..there are three queen sized air mattresses but only one pillow, one flat sheet and one queen sized blanket provided for each air mattress. Luckily I had several children with my group so using the old couch throw pillows wasn't a huge issue to make up for the lack of pillows. The listing also states there is a sofa bed but there isn't any bedding or pillow provided for the sofa (which isn't a pull out sofa, just a regular sofa to sleep on). There were only 8 big bath towels and 6 wash clothes provided upon arrival so I had to request laundry detergent to be dropped off so we could wash towels so everyone had a clean towel when they showered. The cabin was fairly clean but could use a few updates, such as a new sofa so you don't feel the springs when you sit down. This cabin worked for what we needed it for but I would not go here with a group of adults.

This made our Thanksgiving
this is my first time running off of Vrbo and I wasn’t used to the platform. The property manager once I booked was very kind to message me back-and-forth about what time check-in is and the code which was really kind and timely. The property is absolutely beautiful. It is so much fun having all the games in the house. I had my entire family in from Chicago champagne myself from Florida and was able to gather with people we have not seen in a long time. The extra air mattresses in the closet was super convenient. I give 5 stars

Stay Review
Overall nice experience but they need some updates in the home such as inflatable air mattress leaks air, water pressure on shower heads to strong, the couch has broken springs, and the upstairs sink water pressure super low, for a more comfortable stay. The area is super nice the state park is super close by.

Family reunion
Our extended family ate lunch at Starved Rock Lodge but wanted a place to sit around and talk afterwards. My husband and I decided to rent a cabin and specifically chose this one because of the game machines here which was nice because of all the different ages involved. We talked, played cards, ate snacks, and this cabin was perfect! It was nice to have a private gathering space.

Great for Families
We stayed at the house with another family. The house was clean and kid friendly. The arcade games were great. We appreciated the proximity to Starved Rock, which was our primary destination. Our host was so quick to respond to any questions or requests. We had a very comfortable stay and would recommend to anyone interested in stay near Starved Rock.

Perfect weekend getaway
My husband and his friends celebrated turning 40 and over 20 years of friendship with a weekend getaway. This property allowed for them to play games like skeeball and air hockey in the evening and hike during the day. The location is ideal for anyone visiting Starved Rock, Matthison, Ottawa, etc.

Not what expected
Family trip w our 18 and 21 yr old sons.Needing a home base for hiking Starved Rock and Mathieson State Park.Was under the impression it was a home not part of BearPaw water park grounds.The listing does not clearly state its part of a 4 unit.When I asked about grilling and bonfire I was told not allowed due to fire last year but listing shows outdoor "patio" with that ability. My fault I waited to ask about it when no refund was available. You can grill in designated spots not convenient to the villa.Also was told it was "like a townhouse" which again I asked too late.The house was bare minimum supplied.1 extra roll of toliet paper under each bathroom cabinet ,1 tiny set of hotel shampoo/conditioner,shower gel and bar soap for each bathroom no extras anywhere,good thing we were not there much bc we wouldve gone through toilet paper. The place was ok but having a ski ball game in master bedroom and the shuffleboard game in the other bedroom was super weird.The listing makes it seam like they are in separate entertainment area.It was just an ok place.The water is so full of iron nothing seemed sparkling clean like you would expect when walking into kitchen or bathrooms.
