We absolutely loved the time spent at Hill House! From the moment pulled in the driveway we instantly it instantly felt like home. Not fancy, but the elements and creature comforts that make a house a home. And SPACE!! Very spacious!! Plenty of room for families to gather, and then some! Need something you forgot to pack, and not already provided (unimaginable!! ), shopping options aren’t far. Comfortable living room & comfy furnishings. for all to gather. Comfortable beds & pillows. And the rooms individually heated to what best suits your preference. Having come in to visit family, Hill House was a great central location for us to see them all without bouncing around taking up precious visitation opportunities. Be sure to consider (and Book!) when in search of a place to stay in Southern Illinois. From parks, hiking trails, Rend Lake, to a multitude of dining &/or shopping options within easy reach. We highly recommend!
Spacious yard to let the kids / you to play - left side
Room for the kids (and adults!) to roam - right side
Outdoor gathering space complete with fire pit and grill

Eclipse trip

I will say, this was a great place to see a total eclipse. I know that won't be an opportunity there for a long time. But even without a solar eclipse, this was a lovely place to stay. The house and yard was nice place to relax with friends. The town is very quaint. We hung out in the square visiting the shops for several hours.

Home in the country with your furry family

We went to a Celebration of Life in the area and needed a place that would accept our two obedient dogs. My sister was also needing to stay with us also and we would be having a few family mbers pop in to visit. This place was perfect. It had many extras that are needed but yet wete not even mentioned. Like kleenex in many of the rooms and seasons for your food. I wish the house had been dusted more. Meaning the vents and fans were caked with dust, but the house was very clean. We also needed a fence for the dogs but walked them ourselves. Overall, the price was right, house was clean and the owners were professonal and friendly. We will rent again.
