We were very happy with Southwood House! Clean, well-maintained, and in a great location! Everything worked as it should, and check in/check out was a breeze! Karen, our host, was very kind and patient, and was super responsive! We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it (and Karen) to anyone visiting Champaign-Urbana!

Excellent place to stay!

This was my first Vrbo booking and I am shocked at how wonderful this property was. The house is in a beautiful neighborhood, with easy access to every part of Champaign and Urbana. The house was clean, extremely spacious and full of extra amenities including a large extra dining/gathering area off the kitchen, an enclosed patio room and multiple streaming services on the tv's. The host was quick to respond before my arrival and prompt with check in and check out instructions. I will definitely try to use the property in the future.

Came for U of I commencement. House provided adequate space and our stay was fine. Somewhat disappointed in lack of care given to the yard. Would have wanted to spend more time outside. Overall our stay was good.

Trip down memory lane

We had a wonderful stay with my sister and dad. He wanted to come back to Champaign one more time since he was born and raised here. The house was a perfect location to everything. The owner was so nice and responded quickly to any questions we had! If we ever went back, we would definitely stay here again!

Nice little house

Overall it was a pleasant experience. The house was clean with plenty of space. There were a couple items missing to complete the kitchen such as a colander and baking sheet, but these are easily fixable. The location is great, not too far away from campus and in a relatively quiet neighborhood. I recommend to anyone needing a place in the area.

Great value. Very clean.

The house is conveniently located to UIUC activities but away from the bustle. It was spacious enough for five adults. Functionality was great. Hosts provided extra conveniences such as laundry detergent and softener sheets, dish soap, paper towels, bottles of water, snacks, etc. There were plenty of linens and cookware. Though the kitchen cabinets and some of the bedroom furniture are old, and the dining area is equipped with a folding table and chairs, the home is very clean. We found the dining area to be quite functional and spacious for eating and playing games. The kitchen and bathroom fixtures are newer. The water is hot and the water pressure is great. The kitchen dining set has been upgraded from the advertisement to a glass top table and four chairs. My young adults really enjoyed the sofa and love seat in the living room as they are built for relaxation with recliners, cup holders, and reading lights. Both the living room and kitchen felt larger in person than they appeared in pictures. We did not travel with pets or children, but I imagine the house and lot are friendly to both. There is a nice high chair in the dining area. I gladly give the home and host five stars for cleanliness, appointments, and value. Thank you!

Nice, clean, simple, safe place to stay when visiting U of I.

We were in town for the U of I vs Purdue game with teenage sons. We brought a small trailer that we used to tailgate that fit well in the driveway. The stadium was exactly 3 miles away and a straight run down Kirby so we couldn’t get lost. The house was very clean and perfect for our needs. There is a vintage and old neighborhood feel to the house. There is also a Panera and Dominos a couple blocks away which was convenient. We hope to stay here again for Dad’s wkend or Graduation.
