Great place for large groups

Our group of 8 adults appreciated the many rooms to spread out in, the large dining room table to eat together at and the well-stocked kitchen. Things we think need a little TLC are: the couches in the living room (way too soft), the two full size mattresses upstairs (way too soft), the porch (the furniture and deck need attention) and the uneven air flow (cool in the dining room and kitchen but warm in the living room and no vents in the bunk room). The house was clean enough but was very dusty. Doug is an excellent communicator and responded quickly to questions.

Great place to stay

This is our second time staying at the Manor House. It was every bit as good as the first stay. The house is roomy, lots of space for all of us to sit around and chat, and a big table for card games. The kitchen has every pot, pan, bowl, plate, glass, etc. you could ever need. The house is in a very quiet wooded area yet not too far from shopping, restaurants, etc. We'll be back.

Out of town family noticed how clean home was! Host,Doug, went above and beyond to help with VRBO computer clitch. I was able to bring food and drink early and lights were left on for early arrival. Beautiful private wooded property.

Poor communication by Host

I wanted to share my feedback on our recent rental experience. While the location was convenient, several aspects significantly impacted the overall quality of our stay.The cleanliness of the property was below expectations, and we encountered a considerable number of insects. The kitchen was also smaller than anticipated and lacked essential equipment, which presented some challenges.Furthermore, communication with the host was unfortunately poor. Despite sending several messages, we did not receive a response for an extended period, which hindered our ability to address these issues during our stay.I hope this feedback is helpful.

Surprising Gem in Central Illinois

This house was the perfect location for our family to stay when we came back to town for a family funeral. The house was so cute and comfortable. We enjoyed the fire pit and nature around us as well. There were plenty of beds for everyone. I would highly recommend this property for a quiet getaway.

Family Holiday Get-Away

The property was very nice and the home very comforable. The kitchen was well stocked but quite small for a large group. Two full and one half baths were not great for ten people. Family had a great time being together.

Fun family time

We had a great stay! The space was perfect for our family of 10. We liked having the main floor bed room for grandparents and a nice large dining space for Thanksgiving. The kitchen is small but still workable. We liked having the extra refrigerator in the garage so we could bring all the food we needed for our long weekend. The living room and lots of places to sit and a working gas fireplace. We really liked the touch of the Christmas tree with decorations and lights to add a festive touch. We had plenty of dishes and serving things to work it all out. Thank you Doug!

Practically perfect in every way!

Beautiful, charming, handcrafted woodwork and cabinetry throughout gave it an English cottage feel. Perfect for the wooded surroundings, nestled on a hillside. Quaint, enchanting and very unique. Also cozy, and homey and lots of room. A very special place.

Great accommodations

Great place to stay. The Manor House was located in a private setting in the woods on a secluded road on top a scenic hilltop along the Illinois river valley. Checking in was easy and accommodating. The Manor House was stocked with everything you will need for your stay. The decor was unique and well kept. The house was clean in every aspect. By far the best place we have stayed in the Peoria area to date. I hope to stay at The Manor House next year.

This beautiful home was perfect for our group who traveled to the area for a large disc golf vacation. The home is large enough to give everyone their own private space, yet it has many great community spaces for spending time together. This clean, well maintained manor is perfect for any group.

East Peoria Manor House

Family wedding nearby. Great to have family able to stay together. Accommodations were good and comfortable. Plenty of towels and well stocked kitchen. Clean. We experienced however an invasion of sugar ants in the kitchen. Covered items on the counter were covered with them. By the second day they had advanced to the upstairs bathroom. Puzzling because there was no food or drink there. This problem needs to be addressed.

Beautiful accommodations and location in the woods. Sitting on the porch and listening to the birds in the morning was an added perk. We heard vireos, robins, wrens, sparrows, woodpeckers and many more. The house had everything we needed for a great weekend.

great experience!

We stayed at The Manor House so we could all be together while in town for a wedding. Our host was very responsive and the house was so cozy and warm. It was so great to all be together in one place. Most of us arrived the night before the wedding but our son and his girlfriend arrived from California the morning of. We were ready for them with a giant breakfast for all. They waited until we were all together to announce their engagement!! So special! We will be searching VRBO for a place in California to all stay together for their wedding next summer!

My husband, myself and my mother-in-law stayed here with our adult children and spouses (9 of us) for my daughter's wedding weekend. It was delightful and a perfect setting to relax when we had a little down time. The home is gorgeous and has so much space. The host was great and very easy to contact. We would recommend it to anyone who is staying in the Peoria area! Thanks for opening your amazing home to us!

Girls Cousin Reunion

This house was great for our girls cousin reunion. The house was very well equipped with kitchen supplies, towels, bedding, paper products etc. The number of bedrooms was great for our group of 12 ladies. It was a rainy weekend so we didn’t get to walk around the property or enjoy the fire pit, but it looked nice. We had a very enjoyable weekend!
