4 Bedroom, 3 Full Bathrooms - 10 Minutes to Starved Rock!

Come enjoy this large 4 bedroom, 3 full bathrooms, beautiful and comfortable home in Starved Rock Country located just minutes from Starved Rock and Matthiessen State parks as well as wedding venues, Auditorium Ballroom, Westclox and The Barn at Hornbaker. Enjoy great local dining, wine tasting and boutique & antique shopping.

This newly renovated Folk Victorian home in the heart of historic La Salle is 122 years old and bursting with charm! Its pink and grey exterior, complete with whimsical yard flamingos, is located just blocks from Downtown La Salle and is ready to welcome up to 11 guests.
Enjoy the original hardwood floors, beautiful woodwork, pocket doors and tall ceilings throughout. The home has been completely updated and is a lovely blend of traditional Victorian with modern touches and a bit of Hollywood Glam thrown in for fun!
Enter by key code on the main level where you are instantly greeted by the original carved wood staircase. Down the hallway, you’ll find the butler’s pantry and kitchen with new appliances and equipped with all the essentials you'll need for your stay. To your right is the living room that has a queen size sleeper sofa, Smart TV with fast Wi-Fi and plenty of seating. Through the pocket doors, the dining room has a table that seats 10, a charming original Fleur de Lis fireplace and a vintage console record player with old records. The first floor also has a full bath with walk-in shower and a full-size washer and dryer for guest use.
The second level has 4 bedrooms with memory foam mattresses, platform beds and cotton linens. The Queen primary bedroom has an en-suite with a walk-in shower and antique touches throughout. Two of the additional bedrooms have queen beds and desk work spaces perfect for writing the next great Hollywood screenplay. The 4th bedroom has a full-size bed. An air mattress is available by request. Also on the second floor, is another full bath with the original claw-foot tub-- perfect for a nice long soak.

The back yard has a propane grill and most likely a flamingo hiding amongst the pink rose bushes.

This home is perfect for large groups, wedding guests and anyone who just wants to getaway for the weekend and take a walk in the beautiful state parks.

Great Space for Groups
This property was exactly as pictured and described. The bedrooms and bathrooms are well-maintained, there were plenty of linens, and additional chairs in the dining room allowed all guests to comfortably sit for meals and entertainment. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of plates and glasses for a larger group. Overall, we had an excellent stay and highly recommend this property.

Wedding Weekend
Our daughter was getting married and we knew we needed to rent a lot of quality properties for friends and family. We trust Elaine as an amazing host and only rent from her when we visit LaSalle. The house was beautiful and well appointed with the perfect barn and comfort and historical charm. Elaine has thought of everything and even left fresh flowers on the table. The house was clean, comfortable, and fit our family and friends perfectly.

Nice!
The house was well maintained. Communication with Elaine was excellent. Beds were comfortable. Elaine’s had nice touches such as having some bottled water and chocolates out. That was sweet. Nice book with things to do, food options etc. Only downside was that neighborhood was not as well maintained as her house.

We had four families staying with our kids and this was a great stay! I wish the backyard was enclosed for our littles, but it was a great space, with games and space for everyone. Good access to Starved Rock!

Amazing home near Starved Rock and Matthiessen!
Eleven of us (8 adults and 3 young children) stayed at Elaine’s home for a weekend or fun, laughter and hiking. The house was extremely clean and the beds were super cozy. The backyard was a perfect size to enjoy privacy, the fire pit and a game of catch. Elaine’s recommendation binder was so helpful and informative on the local restaurants, hiking and shopping. I would definitely recommend this vrbo to anyone staying in the area. My friends and I are already planning our next trip to Elaine’s home.
