Horrible!

First of all the host takes forever to reply to messages. The house is beautiful but needs a lot of TLC! When we walked in it was dirty, dusty, a lot of beetles everywhere. The upstairs master room had a mice. I had asked the host if the grill worked. She said it did, we get there & of course it doesn’t work. The bathroom by the pool doesn’t work. The theater room smells really bad so we were not able to use it, it has a carpet that looks very dirty. The basement bathroom has mold. Pool room has no tv. She really needs to update pictures on the website.

Good location, big house

We enjoyed our stay at this big house! Just for future renters what we found that would help others: The kitchen is not stocked, there is a charcoal grill, but the previous renters had smoked and put their cig. butts into the grill and we did not want to use that grill. The gas grill's tank was empty and we had to fill it. I am not sure if our friend's got the refund from owners or not yet. We needed extra pillows/blankets/ towels, which we found out based on reviews so we brought our own. The house only had 3 rolls of toilet paper and 4 garbage bags, so we had to also purchase that. The property could be absolutely beautiful, but it needs a lot of indoor and outdoor maintenance. We called the owner and they came within an hour to suck up the wet carpet in the theatre room. Owners are very nice! The carpet kept getting wet, so we made the kids not use the room. The tv remotes did not have batteries, so we had to go purchase those. We enjoyed having a washer and dryer, but there was no detergent. We ran to the store and bought our own so we could dry our towels. The pool house was nice to hang out in, but only the toilet worked. There were lots of ants in the pool house and the house, which coming from the country ourselves, we understood. The scenery is gorgeous and the rooms were spacy. We did all enjoy our trip. We loved how the kitchen overlooked the living room. There was plenty of fridge, freezer, and counter space.

It worked. Few inconsistencies

The house is due for an update or good cleaning/ fixing up. The house was out of toilet paper, the theater floor carpet was damp and smelled musty. We brought most of our own kitchen utensils and supplies. Pool was clean and warm. It was easy to find, and good neighborhood. Beds were comfortable.

Basic

Very basic property but worked nice for our large group with multiple families. The house could use some cleaning/updating. The pool part was nice but needs a good cleaning and updated heaters to run. Once out if the pool it was very cold and when running the little heaters out there to attempt to warm it up we kept tripping the breakers. The theater room was a hit but needs cleaned and updated. Lots of broked chairs. Kids loved the property and pool and overall we had a great trip!

Great experience

Lots of space, pool was great. The water was really warm, so even little kids were able to enjoy for a while before getting cold. Would recommend bringing water shoes or flip flops because the floor around the pool gets quite cold. We plan on making this an annual trip (celebrating my mom's & brother's birthdays), and looking to book with some friends and their kids in the future as well.

Family get together

The unit is really not a "Mansion", but a large home. When considering renting this unit understand it is not the "luxury" a "Mansion" would imply. The furnishings are very dated and not coordinated in each room, the mattress are long overdue for replacement, all the theater room seats do not recline or work, some of the TV's do not work, some lights not working or with burned out bulbs, shower head in Master could not be shut off completely allowing a dripping sound all night long, and for a remote location the security was absent. Towel for the bathrooms were not hung in each bathroom but were in a cabinet in the lower level. All of the towels were mis-matched and the quality of rummage sale. The lock on the front door did not provide any additional security in the night time (no interior locking bolt). One day while we were all out of the home, someone entered the home (someone who knew the code on the front door deadbolt) turned on all the lights and turned down the thermostat. Even If this was the owner, no note was left of who or why they were in the home. This spoked out the family.

Family Vacation

With a little preparation, the place was great for our family vacation and we very much enjoyed the pool. I did my research and brought things like blankets and pillows, extra TP, paper towel, dishwasher pods, wash clothes, and ice. We came here knowing what to expect so we were not disappointed. The only thing that did surprise me was that the garage was not accessible to park in. Yes, a few things could use repairs, better cleaning or upgrades, like a couple theater recliners and the beds. (1 king, 1 queens and 2 twins upstairs and 2 queens downstairs) If you're a light sleeper, consider bringing earplugs. Due to the open floor plan, noise carriers a bit. But overall, it's pretty nice. Lots of effort went towards 80% of the house for guests.

Family Getaway

The house was spacious, plenty of room for our large group! It was a great, budget-friendly option for our families to meet up for a holiday getaway. I would still prefer this to a hotel any day, the private indoor pool is what enticed us to this particular location. The listing definitely merits an update. The “4th bathroom” in the pool house did not have running water, so it’s basically a changing room. Aside from the pool, all other spaces in the pool house aren’t usable (grill, kitchenette, fireplace, etc. We were perfectly content swimming, just have to overlook all the “do not use” signs. The beds were mediocre. A few of the recliners in the movie theater room were not in working order, but the kids were still excited to watch movies! We would consider booking again because we know what to expect given the price range.

Great for our family gathering

The indoor heated pool was a huge draw for our family gathering. The kitchen and dining areas met our cooking and dining needs. Some areas of the house felt a bit rundown or neglected, but overall it was clean. While the online listing states that it sleeps 18, there are actually only beds for 10. However, there was tons of floorspace and we simply brought air mattresses along for the kids and it worked great! Also, lots of couches throughout the house which could have been used for sleeping as well.

Lots of space with a pool

The house was very spacious, enough to accommodate 4 families with kids. Pool was great and kids really enjoyed it. The temperature of the water was nice and warm and the heaters in the pool area kept everybody warm and comfortable. The media room in the basement was a big hit with the kids. Location was beautiful, very peaceful and country. A few suggestions for the owner for future guests is to provide extra sheets and blankets, more coffee/tea mugs, no tea spoons, only table spoons. Besides those few minor details everything else was great. We would definitely come back in the future.

Property has a lot of potential

This property has a lot of potential. Main rooms are very spacious. Appliances in the kitchen are upgraded and working. The bathrooms and bedrooms need some love. Beds all need replaced. Things are clean but not deep cleaned. Black mold is growing in the basement bathroom and bedrooms. Shower curtains are stained orange. We had to wash some of the bedding. Soap dispensers were all almost empty. One toilet wasn’t working and faucet handle broken. I texted the host on Friday morning of the stay and got a reply after checkout on Sunday. Bathrooms don’t all have trash cans or trash bags. The kitchen is missing basic items, however they may have been poached in the past (No spoons, cutting boards, measuring cups are examples of things we assumed would be in the kitchen) Lots of broken or aged things through the property.

Needs some TLC

Overall stay was very pleasant. Pool was awesome and it was very easy to access. It was a perfect size for meals and gathering Feel that "sleeps 18" statement is misleading. There were beds for 10 people only and the 3 additional people we had were forced to make do on a standard (no pull out) sofa and recliner. There are several amenities that are not functional-no grill in pool room, gas grill outside didn't close fully. Bathroom in pool house didn't flush, recliners in theater room didn't work, ice makers in refrigerators not functional, TV in 2 bedrooms would not connect to internet, stools for table in kitchen all had broken legs. Several broken tiles in patio and deck also. Probably time for some maintenance on this property, but it was great for our needs and very clean

Family Gathering

Our family was able to stay on this property together with enough open spaces to give opportunities for both alone time and together time. The pool was a particularly nice addition and was well used by all. There were two things that were amiss. The internet/wifi never got figured out while we were there. This was not a particular problem for me as it limited the amount of screen time and increased the amount of family time. The second was a curious lack of spoons. There were no spoons to be found anywhere. Forks, Check. Butter knives, Check. Spoons, MIA

Positives - indoor pool, lots of space, price, movie room is very nice. Areas to improve - Kitchen/household supplies - no flatware spoons, 1 garbage bag supplied, very little dish soap, 1 bowl for mixing, no plastic wrap/foil, only 2 regular size coffee cups. - Ice makers in both refrigerators not working - Beds need new pillows - these are pretty flat. Beds are okay. Not all TV's in bedrooms work. - Pictures on the VRBO site need to be updated - no swing or trampoline in yard. Listing says pet friendly but does not explain there is a cost. - Outside gas grill needs to be bigger for the larger groups this house can hold. - Some vents need cleaning or replacement. - Dishwasher was not run after the previous guests. Overall - the price makes this a good value and the negatives are not deal breakers, more inconveniences and extra stuff to buy at the grocery store. Appliances and TVs are higher end. If they invested a little more and paid a little more attention to the day-to-day things a vacationer might want this could be an outstanding rental.

Morton Trip

We came to Morton on a family trip. When we arrived at check in the cleaners never showed. The owners came and cleaned for us while we waited in the pool room. The house has great bones but it’s in need of a ton of maintenance. It suited our needs . There were some things that didn’t work but the kids enjoyed the pool and there was enough room for all of us. Overall it was a decent trip, the whole place just needs a little TLC.

Thenproperty is beautiful and spacious howver there were many inconsistentcies for a family family The basics like toilet paper was not adequately provided. One roll in the whole house. Towels were still in washing machine none in bathroomsnor cabinets and did not match the instructions prpvided in the rule book. The peoperty advertises to sleep 18, only9 pillows could be found, no extra sheets or comforters were located in the house. Dust bunnies and previous renters clothing was found u nder two beds, plus bugs running around on the floors inndaylight. The main door and garage doorsbwere not closed and ajar upon arrival. There was no communication with property owner with my seven attempts, including day of.check in i was honestly concerned it might be a scam. The rules and restrictions , only 4 cars on property at one time for example, does not support this advertised 'event venue'. We would not recommend however knowing now what to e pect we might stay again and be prepared to clean, bringnour own linens, and ample.toilet paper and shower and hand soaps.

Perfect for Family Reunion

We took my mom to Illinois for a family reunion. This property was PERFECT for that. It's in the middle of some of the most beautiful scenery. Even my uncle, who lives in Illinois, stated he was amazed by the area. There were a few quirks with the home, but we were all okay with that because of its location & the wonderful time we all had.
