About this property

Long term living on the lake! This beautiful 2 bedroom 2 bathroom home right on the lake is perfect for your long term stay. Wake up each morning with coffee on the deck listening to the birds chirping. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood right off rt 176, not too far from Chicago but far enough to feel like you’re on a vacation.

Would stay again

Everything was exactly as described. Cute, clean, updated little house right on island lake. The stairs are a little scary for young kids but we made it work. Host is very sweet, helpful, and responsive.

Great lake cottage in island lake

We had a wonderful stay in Island Lake. Enjoyed sitting outside every morning drinking our coffee/tea & listening to all the bird life. The Blue Herons were so fun to watch fly by all day long. The inside was very cute & comfortable for our family. We would love to have the pleasure of staying here again when we visit our family in IL.

Gorgeous lake house

We absolutely loved staying at this house. All of the finishes are so inviting and made us feel at home. The view of the lake is tranquil and relaxing. It was in close proximity to our family in Woodstock. I can't say enough about this cozy house. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Getaway

We needed a place to stay for a few days and really enjoyed the home. Very clean, kitchen well stocked, access to the lake and other beaches are close by. But what we enjoyed the most was the peace and quiet. I highly recommend this home.
