Amazing!! The townhouse is clean, spacious and equipped with everything you need!! The grandchildren loved all the indoor and outdoor games and toys! The adults appreciated the cleanliness and convenient location to Starved Rock and a neighboring resort with a water park, mini putt and playground. It is the perfect choice for a family stay!!!

It was nice. Only issue we ran into was the conrs that were supposed to be blocking our dsignated parking wasnt there and the spots were in use. However the neighbors were polite enough to move one of theirs without issue.

Super clean, great location near starved rock and downtown Utica. Was a little confusing to find at first but so easy once figured out. Beds were comfortable, plenty of space and nicely decorated! Grand bear has a great coffee shop. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful place
It’s wonderful please. It was perfect clean, great location really close to the Starved Rock park. Had everything needed for great vacation.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The home was incredibly clean and beautiful, and it was in a perfect location for our adventures at Starved Rock and Mattheissen Park. Check-in was super simple and the host was easy to communicate with before our arrival. Overall, it was a fabulous stay.
The place was really nice, well maintained, and cozy. We did stay there thinking we can buy tickets for the grand bear water park, but they do not allow day passes on Saturdays, which was disappointing since the villa is in the same resort.

Amazing place!
My wife and I wanted a nice place to stay with a full kitchen and a "non-public" hottub. This townhome exceeded our expectations. The two-person jetted tub in the Master bedroom with a fireplace (there's a bonus fireplace on the lower level in the family room as well) was so welcome during one of the coldest weekends of the year. The below-zero wind chills kept us from hiking the lovely parks near here, but our hostess provided us with fun games to play, books to read, a comfortable bed, and absolutely SPOTLESS accommodations. We'd recommend booking here, and we will plan on doing so again as well.

Beautiful Property! Well-equipped
We stayed at Aneta's villa at the Grand Bear Resort right down the street from Utica, for the 2025 Wine Walk. The place was beautiful, modern and cozy. It was a nice surprise to see how well-equipped the place was. Coming from a recent stay at a popular indoor waterpark in Wisconsin (so triple the price) where there was not even extra toilet paper let alone kitchen utensils - this place had everything you would need for a great stay. Also appreciated Aneta's responsiveness. She always replied back quickly when I reached out with questions. I gave 4 stars on the Accuracy of online listing because the map is incorrect - says it is downtown Utica. It is not far but definitely not downtown, which I know Aneta is working on correcting. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!
